Component 2d contains the corse study areas of context, representation, key elements and aesthetics, and the specialist study areas of autership and narrative. We cover the 1994 Quentin Tarantino film Pulp Fiction, which has been chosen for it’s unique and experimental plot structure. Tarantino is also considered an auteur director with a signature style who creates his own, individual works.
Past questions have focused on the directors approach to filmmaking and the experimental use of editing and sound in the film, how narrative reinforces themes and how far Pulp Fiction is an auteur film. The unit focuses on the unique aspects of the film and the director who made it, and we are required to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of elements of film and it to an analysis of how to construct and communicate meaning in a film.
