Prepare strategies and guidance
With regard to the preparation strategy of the 899 short film script writing in Shanghai Normal University, what students want most is to summarize the above basic books, especially the combination of official reference books and supplementary recommended reference books. Although it is difficult to integrate the contents of these books perfectly, they still hope to contain at least the best.
Above we mentioned Su Mu's "Honor", which is the textbook of film analysis course of Beijing Film Group. While reading the film, we also taught the basics of film screenwriter and the basics of film director. So many parts of this book can play an important role in improving students' scores when answering questions.
Therefore, it is not enough for students to read only one book when reviewing. It is necessary to read several books together. Otherwise, the comprehensiveness of the review may be biased, and the relevant knowledge points will naturally be lacking when answering questions.
