ROUGH DRAFT of Scene Analysis Paper ENG2102 - Spring 2021 Due: 11:59 PM, Tuesday, February 2 Directions: Write a rough draft of your Scene Analysis Paper following the requirements below and submit it to Turnitin.com. Read the full directions for the Scene Analysis before completing this assignment. Rough Draft Requirements □ Write about the same movie, article, and scene you listed on your proposal, unless I have required you to

make a change. □ Your draft must be at least 700 words (which is half of the requirement for the final paper). This

minimum does NOT include an optional works cited section. □ Write an introduction of 1 paragraph that includes these elements:

o Identify the chosen movie. o Identify the scene you will focus on. o Name the analytical article and its author. o Quote the analytical article’s thesis. o End your intro with your thesis statement.

□ Your thesis should sum up how the chosen scene fits in with the thesis/main argument of the analytical article. Do not quote in your thesis.

□ Following your introduction, write at least 3 body paragraphs. □ Do NOT include a general summary of the movie or the scene, but DO include specific details from the

scene as supporting evidence of your argument. □ Include at least 4 quotations from the analytical article. You may also include quotes from the movie

and each of the reviews you have found, following the paper’s requirements. □ Highlight or underline each quotation you have included. □ Include a page reference for each quote from your analytical article and any other source that you found

on Academic Search Complete. o Use the PDF version of each article to get the original page numbers. o Look around the page margins for the original page number.

□ A works cited section is optional. □ Your draft must be no more than 30% quoting. □ After submitting your rough draft, verify that the correct file has been uploaded and is complete. Suggestions • Review the feedback you have received from me on your proposal, especially regarding the article’s

thesis and your scene, as well as from your classmates in the discussion area. • Review the example Scene Analysis papers posted on Canvas. • Consider elements of the scene such as props, dialogue, costuming, lighting, etc. (and not just the events

of the scene) are relevant. • Analyze the significance of each scene detail and quotation that you include. • Check off the requirements as you complete them. Evaluation Your draft will be evaluated based on whether or not you have completed the above requirements, so spend most of your time on filling out your ideas and not on proofreading. I will provide several comments/suggestions regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the rough draft. In addition, I will identify several formatting and grammar corrections that are needed. After I have commented on your rough draft, feel free to ask for additional feedback by emailing me specific questions or even a revised draft.
