Shooting Essays.
Lang, Frederick K.
Teaching English in the Two-Year College, v13 n4 p281-89 Dec 1986
Explores the use of film in the instruction of remedial writing. Suggests creating exemplification essays approaching but not producing a filmic screenplay by incorporating narrative and technical cinematic techniques (shooting script terms) and conventions of visualization to produce both a piece of "exposition" and an act of "exposure."
