Film, Music and Games as Cultural Expressions

Learn to analyse the media you already consume: how camera, sound, editing and interactivity create meaning – a competence aim of its own in English Vg1.

In short

Just enough theory to use it

The curriculum asks you to discuss form, content and devices in cultural expressions from different media – including music, film and games. Film tells stories with tools text does not have: camera work chooses what you see, editing decides the order and pace, sound steers what you feel, and mise-en-scène fills the frame with meaning. Games add something no other medium has: interactivity – you make the choices. Analysing these media uses the same core move as literature: identify a device, describe the moment, explain its effect. The difference is the toolbox.
