The Ancillary Task Two- Writing a Film review for LWL- All Of Us

Rationale for the Film Review

  • LWLs editorial staff are interested in independent, non-mainstream film makers, as well as the usual mainstream movies, reflected in the copy overall, but also in reviews
  • there is an interest in the magazine in experimental and alternative styles of film making, often found in short films
  • the magazine reports on the nominees and winners of international film festivals - often the first place a short film is showcased
  • the magazine targets a student audience (perhaps also specifically students in subjects such as Media, Film, Cultural Studies) , and this is useful for us as many of your films target an audience of your age (students) with film knowledge
  • the magazine has strong links with the Picturehouse chain of cinemas, which screens short films every day as part of the main film programme (virgin media shorts)
  • no other film magazine carries reviews of short films, instead, usually focussing on very mainstream films (you can provide evidence of this)
