Learning Objectives • To understand how to identify technique • To explain how techniques work and the impact they have
What is a Technique • A technique is the name of the method used to create an effect; for instance in poetry an author might use simile, metaphor or personification to create an image; a writer might use characterisation to make the reader feel sympathy or hatred towards the character. • It is essential, in all essays, to name the technique before explaining the effect it has on the audience.
Saving Private Ryan • The techniques used in film are a little different from those presented in written texts. We are going to focus of audio and visual for now.

Each of the techniques must be named in your paragraphs – it makes for more sophisticated writing and a more technical essay! • On your planning sheet, fill in the techniques used in each section using your notes.
Example Now think about effect – what does it look like? How does it effect what the audience’s experience?
