About film analysis mind maps

GoConqr Original

What the Film Analysis mind maps cover

These maps organize film ideas into branches. The map on micro features covers cinematography, sound, editing and mise-en-scene. Action films looks at shots, while The Roommate Trailer considers genre and poster imagery. Other maps focus on individual films, including Chinatown and La Haine.

Choosing a map

For a starting point on techniques, use the micro features map to see how its terms are grouped. If you prefer a closer look at one aspect, Film Studies includes branches on diegetic and non-diegetic sound. Follow a branch and explain its ideas in your own words before checking the map again.

When to switch formats

Once you have followed the connections in a map, use a quiz on the unit page to check what you remember. Flashcards can help when you want to practice recalling individual terms. Try tracing a branch from a map, then check your recall in another format.
