Listed below are selected items from a variety of 'Annotated Catalogue's'
These will give you a solid guide for how to annotate different research material. These are not linked to one topic/subject, but will be useful to see how to summarise the content and usefulness of each resource item that you will be using to produce your Presentation Script.
Film
Item 3: The Devil’s Backbone (Guillermo Del Toro, 2001). I chose this film as this film is also based on personal childhood experiences that have influenced certain aspects of the film. Additionally, in this film, like many of his other films the ‘villain’ is misunderstood to what he is trying to achieve. Also, the director linked both ‘The Devil’s Backbone’ and ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ for people he feels would enjoy the film more. Also, it shows elements religion throughout the film and so can be regarded as a key source for discussion around my topic, although not as relevant as my focus film.
TV
Item 6: This is England on Newsnight Review: This review discusses how Meadows has contradicted the stereotypical view of skinheads as being grounded in racist views, showing the compassionate and heartfelt side of the culture. It also explores how he is able to depict youth culture without using the stereotypical view of violent gangs. The fact that they are far more realistic depictions of youth culture means that they are far more grounded in truth and so are far more relevant. I will use this to discuss how Meadows’ contradicts stereotypes in order to more successfully get his audience to question their beliefs.
Internet
Item 7: http://www.stevenspielberg.co.uk/ This is another useful source as it is Spielbergs own personal site. This, like Wikipedia, gives you a short biography on his life, and also information on his films but is far superior. The site contains some good discussion and insight into my 3 chosen films. This allows me to answer the central argument of my topic question as it backs up the reasons why he uses father figures in the vast majority of his films.

Magazines
Item 6: Encore Magazine: A very useful article, written in August 2010. The article is based on the ‘believability scale’ of Tim Burton’s films. This article talks briefly about the films they have worked together on, but lacks detail as they are simply just listed. The pair are referred to as a ‘match made in heaven’, which is a bit of a cliché as all their work together is deep and dark. They are also said to be quirky and weird as they bring out the best in each other, which therefore helps them to produce the films to the best of their abilities as they add their own stamp to it and work together as a team.
Item 6: Time Magazine Interview with Michael Caine, (http://www.totalfilm.com/reviews/dvd/the-prestige). In this magazine article Nolan is respected by the writer of this review showing his wide audience how well known his work is. It elaborates how his themes are almost predictable, as you know the ending at the beginning in most of them. This point being in a well-known magazine almost adds to the fact that his work is so well known and how much each piece assembles one another answering the question is he an auteur?
