choose any theme

Create a 1,050- word proposal for a themed
film festival. The theme could be anything from a specific genre, like
the Western, to a topic, such as LGBTQ representations, to a specific
time period, and everything in between.

Part 1

Identify and explain your theme. What is the justification for this focus?

Part 2

Identify three
films that will serve as the main event for the festival. Each film
must relate back to the theme. In your justification, use specific
scenes, rather than general plot summary, from each movie.

Compare and contrast the
movies to each other to effectively explain how they relate to your
chosen theme. In this section, consider all that was discussed
throughout the semester, including but not limited to: cinematography,
sound and music, editing, narrative, genres, history, and film theory.

Part 3

Include the rationale for your proposed film festival.

• Why do University of Phoenix students need to examine this theme?
• What will students learn?
• What new knowledge will be gained?
• Why is this important?
