Grade Commentary
Alex addresses the question and demonstrates a thorough knowledge of the Horror/Gothic genre, film analysis and cinematography.
The style is engaging and demonstrates an awareness of the need to persuade the reader, connecting film technique and the composer’s intention into an effective discussion. There is clear understanding of purpose and audience and close textual reference is used to support the ideas.
The essay would be enhanced by stronger engagement with the related material, particularly how ‘suspense’ and ‘fear’ are created in the text.
The response demonstrates characteristics typically produced by a student performing at a Grade B standard midway through Stage 5.
