Learning Goal: I’m working on a writing multi-part question and need guidance to help me learn.1) WATCH THESE DOCUMENTARIES:To begin, you will need to have a little more historical context regarding the depiction of blacks in cinema from the inception of film and throughout history. I’ve found two excellent documentaries that discuss these topics and will provide you with a better understanding of how negative stereotypes of blacks were perpetuated in movies and combatted. Classified X (Narrated by Film Director Melvin Van Peebles, a strong influence on Spike Lee)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HI7T68PUTIU&feature=youtu.beMidnight Ramblehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TS-uHMrtrLc&t=33s2) FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF WITH THE FILM GLOSSARY. This week we will also introduce technical film elements into our studies. Look under Resources and open the Film Glossary. You’ll find a list of film terms regarding camera and film techniques that will better acquaint you with the process of filmmaking. Familiarize yourself with the glossary terms as you will see them again on your Mid Term exam in Week 7. To aid you in better understanding the film glossary, Watch the brief videos under Resources found using the two web links provided titledA) Film Making Basics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQnYwsehvs8&t=165s B ) Film Techniques https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvybQ5RpMkc&feature=youtu.beThese short videos will give you visual examples of many of the camera and film techniques found in your film glossary. For visual examples of any glossary terms that are not included in these two links, just search YouTube for a host of explanatory videos like this one that explains Open and Closed Form identified in your glossary as Tight and Loose Framing https://youtu.be/NtclBKbMSS03) READ THIS OVERVIEW OF THE HISTORY OF FILMhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_film 4) DISCUSSION: (Record Your Response via Webcam under VoiceThread on Sakai – Keep it under 2 mins but make your comments thoughtful and informative) After seeing Classified X and Midnight Ramble what are your thoughts about how blacks were portrayed in old movies? Do you still see similar racist and stereotypical depictions of blacks in movies today? If so, which movies? And after skimming the Wikipedia entry on The History of Film, do you notice anything missing? I mean, aside from this brief little mention….[Jacksonville was especially important to the African American film industry. One notable individual in this regard is the European American producer Richard Norman, who created a string of films starring black actors in the vein of Oscar Micheaux and the Lincoln Motion Picture Company.[68] In contrast to the degrading parts offered in certain white films such as The Birth of a Nation, Norman and his contemporaries sought to create positive stories featuring African Americans in what he termed “splendidly assuming different roles.”] Who would you say is today’s Oscar Micheaux? 5) READ CHAPTERS 1 AND 2 OF That’s My Story and I’m Sticking To It.
