Elaborations

• 1 filming a short sequence to show a conflict, and selecting camera angles, lighting and costume to convey meaning through silent film, music video, stop motion or computer animation, experimenting with filming and framing the subject, and using basic shot types, angles and lighting to control picture space and mood
• 2 collaborating with communities to explore, challenge and celebrate local histories, cultures and identities; for example, using protocols from their school or school sector as a guide to contacting local First Nations Australian communities and establishing a learning partnership or using recognised online resources
• 3 using mise-en-scène, camera work, sound, editing and media technologies in ways that are typically used in a genre, auteur or film movement to safely, ethically, legally and responsibly design, produce and edit a narrative media arts work that conforms to or challenges the conventions, to communicate their understandings of the world around them, while also building relationships with and engaging audiences
• 4 using Viewpoints to frame questions and evaluate how their intentions are being communicated; for example, considering how and why meaning and experiences, political statements, critical theories and emotions have been used during post-production work
• 5 creating multiple representations of the same person, place or concept in different media and for different intentions, considering audience interaction and the ways that media conventions can portray different perspectives
