Literature and Film Studies

Prerequiste: This class is for 10th-12th graders only. Literature and Film Studies can not be used in lieu of required English courses. 

Students will read different types of texts (novels, short stories, nonfiction) and analyze their film adaptations. The literature focus will be on how the texts are written and how they are interpreted by different audiences. The film focus will look at how directors create and frame a scene, and adapt a work of literature into a new genre.
