Year 12 Homework.  For each of your films, write down what you have done so far, and what you need to do.  Write a sentence or two for each bullet point about what you have done or need to do.


Things you must have done for your case study:

So for example, I might write under number 4. 'I have found some twitter comments but don't know them off by heart yet.  However, I know that there are lots of comments about the film and so I need to go back and research this.'

Or for number 3 I might write 'not done yet, but have visited fan sites and have quotes from them.'

1.  Analyse the trailer

2.  Analyse the website

3.  Analyse a fan site

4.  Find a few twitter comments about it 5. read a few articles from different websites about it.
