99 ways to tell a story an exercise in style
July 13th, 2010
Students were set the task of making 4 short sequences using the same scenario which was borrowed from Matt Madden’s book ’99 Ways to Tell a Story’. Students picked a director, a film, a film movement and a genre from pots and then had to make the same scenario using the different styles. Time was given over to some research into the relevant areas and then students made the sequences. There will be a more detailed outline of this activity in the new MEA journal to be published later this year. Here is the link http://longroad99ways.tumblr.com/.
