Discussion board (20 points) Discussion board (20 points) Indian cinema, as we’ll read and screen, encompasses more than Bollywood… We’ve got film options that range from full-on Bollywood (K3G) to a more recent tweak to the formula (3 Idiots) to grittier realism (Liar’s Dice)… We’re reading about the formal and stylistic elements of cinema, considering how these elements come together to make meaning in film… This week’s essay asks you to use the tools you learn from Corrigan, and apply them to the cinematic traditions you learn from Deshpande & Mazaj… Throw in the discussion board + flipgrid, and you’ve got another action-packed week! Much to discuss…  Two posts this week for 20 points, with one post per day for points… Make sure you post on two different days this week for full credit! This board closes Monday night (6/6) at 11:59p Essay 2 (150 points) In Chapter 3 of our Short Guide textbook, Corrigan lays out a range of formal and stylistic concerns that we can use to think about how films “make meaning.” For your second Global Cinema essay, use at least three of these elements to provide evidence for your argument regarding the meanings / themes of a given screening from this week. Talk to use about things like cinematography and character, mise-en-scène and realism! Use particular examples from particular scenes to argue your points–vagueness will not be rewarded!  Your second essay (1000 words minimum) should be completed by the end of Week 2 (6/6) and submitted in MS Word or as a PDF.
