Determine what historical period your film is produced in. What are the main historical influences (ie. Vietnam war, cold war, Watergate, Iraq war, introduction of television, etc.) on your film?
How do those influences impact your film? NOTE: This does not mean the historical period your film is about. As you have learned in the class, all films carry with them the imprint of the historical period in which they were produced.
