Assignment


At the start of this unit, you previewed the final assignment. Now that you are near the end of the unit, you have developed the knowledge and skills you need to complete it successfully.



The local newspaper, The Gazette, is looking to appeal to school-aged readers in your community. They are hiring a student writer to write film reviews that will engage this audience.




The Gazette's  new, young editor, Ms. Corinne Cousineau, will be reviewing the applications and selecting candidates to be interviewed. To apply, you must prepare a cover letter and a sample film review that demonstrate an accurate analysis of the film, as well as your writing and research skills.




What's Next?


The instructions and activities in the last two lessons of this unit will help you prepare your final assignment. This assignment will be comprised of two parts:
  1. Cover Letter
  2. Sample Film Review

Given that you have been working closely on your film study, we will start with the film review portion of the task. After you have written your film review, you will be guided through the process of writing your cover letter.
