New OCR A Level Film Studies Resources
We are developing a series of new resources for the new A Level Film Studies specs. These include an overview planner, teaching guide, online slides, student workbook and a glossary.
Legacy Resources
Welcome to Edusites Film’s comprehensive resources and materials link covering every aspect of the OCR AS and A2 Film Studies specification.
Studying film is a skill and a pleasure for both students and teachers focussing on key areas of academic study and we like to think we have covered all bases. This includes in depth schemes of work with embedded links, associated resources and many, many, many case studies to kick start or embed the topic.
Expert advice as always is close at hand and we offer differentiated half or full day revision courses to stimulate your students into attaining higher grades and maximising and improving on their existing potential. We sincerely hope you find our resources of benefit and if so, let us know!
