Synopses & Analyses Report
Our opening weeks have focused on exploring general sound track components and narrative. For this report, I would like you to find a short scene (1-2 minutes) that stood out to you in Catch Me If You Can, create a shot list, and describe the sound track elements (speech, sound effects, and music). You can find ways to view the movie through our UNT library in the module introduction page.
You can find all information on your Synopses and Analyses Reports here. (Make sure you use the required worksheet to complete your report!)
