"Moving image-based oracy work is a vital stage of developing pupils' realisation that, like other art forms and forms of communication, the moving image media have their own codes, conventions and rules of construction. Even more importantly, the safe and supportive environment of classroom talk helps pupils to realise that they are bringing expertise to the debate: they already know something about the rules and codes that govern moving image media. By developing their own use of 'technical' language they can then undertake more confident analyses and evolve a deeper understanding of the ways all texts work. As well as the terms that are specific to moving image media, such as 'shot', 'close-up', etc, there are many terms that can be used meaningfully in the analysis of both moving image and print media, such as 'narrative', 'character', 'genre', 'setting' and so-on. The exploration of these terms through classroom talk in relation to moving image texts provides pupils with a meaningful grounding in key literacy concepts, which in turn leads them to more confident production of their own written and moving image texts." - British Film Institute (BFI)
