Two units are studied each year through the WJEC exam board: coursework (40%) and exam (60%). At AS, the coursework unit (Exploring Film Form) focuses on the way meaning is constructed in film through a close study of mise-en-scene, sound, cinematography and editing. The exam unit (British and American Film) focuses on two national cinemas, the UK and the USA. You will learn about the history of production, distribution, exhibition and messages and values across these national cinemas as well as learning about the relationship between producers and audiences. At A Level, the coursework is an extended research project on a topic of your choosing and a creative unit on screenwriting. The exam unit covers World cinema (Spanish, German and Soviet) and spectatorship topics (shocking cinema, film and emotional response).
