DESCRIPTION
This module introduces key concepts and approaches to adapting literary work into film. We'll examine key issues related to the transfer of structure, plot, character and dialogue from source material such as novels, memoirs and plays into another medium, film. As well as the process of adaptation, the transference of prose into dramatic form also implicates the process of dramatisation, and much of this module will be concerned with that process too.
