the actors and the characters they played.

Personal Opinion—Overall what did you think of the Film? Would you recommend it? If so, who would

you recommend it to? What was your favourite part?

Star Rating—How many stars out of 10 would you give the film?

Challenge 2: Sound track

The soundtrack of a film is very important, it helps you to understand what is happening on screen.

This is done through sound effects and music. (A sound effect is an added sound such as; a dinosaur

roar in Jurassic Park, a skidding noise in a car chase or a creaking door in a scary movie.)

Did they use lots of sound effects in the film? Describe any sound effects that were used in

the film that particularly stood out to you. How did they make you feel?

Describe the music in the film. Was the music just instrumental or did it have songs? What

effect did the music have? Do you know what genre the music was? Was there a particular

piece of music that stood out to you? Why?

throughout the film, others have only small parts. Who was your favourite character in the film?

Write a fact file about your favourite character.

Your fact file should include:

The name of your character

A drawing of the character

An important quote from your character, e.g. ‘To infinity and beyond’ - Buzz Lightyear.

Why are they your favourite character?

Challenge 4: Advertising

All films are advertised in different ways to encourage people to watch them. The more people that

watch them, the more money the film company make.

Design a promotional poster to advertise the film you watched. Your poster should be suitable for

the films target audience (i.e. young children, teens adults) and should include:

The name of the film

Main Characters

A hint at the plot

A slogan or tag line ( e.g. ‘Who you gonna call?’- Ghostbusters )

Challenge 5: Best bit

Using the sheet attached, draw the storyboard from your favourite part of the film. You can include

speech bubbles or thought bubbles and some description with each picture to help show what is

happening in the scene.

Challenge 6: Lights, Camera, Action!

Using a device that lets you record video, can you recreate a scene from the film?

You could choose a scene with just one character or rope in some family members to play different

roles. You could even create props and costumes from items you have at home or add sound effects

of your own.

It only needs to be a short scene but have fun playing your chosen role.

We would love to see any of your videos which you could upload to twitter or email to

year5@albertpye.org. Remember to ask permission before sharing any recordings especially if other

people have been used in your filming.
