UNDERSTANDING CINEMA (SEM III)
100 MARKS PAPER
TO BE ADMINISTERED AT SEMESTER III OF BACHELOR OF MASS MEDIA

Please Note: This one paper cannot guarantee any creation of Film-makers.
However, the paper takes a holistic approach giving sufficient insight to the
students seeking diverse careers and certain specific knowhow of films in the short
span of Three (3) months. Thus it is also necessary to retain the title of this paper as
Understanding Cinema (to mean in the process of learning) and by its name it has
given credits and jobs to a large number of students already working in the
industry.

SUGGESTED GUIDELINES AND OBJECTIVES OF THE PAPER:


1. This paper shouldaim to sensitize the students towards Cinema as a
medium of Mass Communication and help them to become critical
viewers of movies today.
a. From A Personal Point Of View
b. From A Social Point Of View
c. From A Business Point Of View (in context of Box Office Success)

2. The students should get to study the similarities and differences between
various movie cultures. (Have a contextual understanding)
3. The students should get to study Indian cinema through its similarities
and differences with both Indian & Western traditions of art and
culture.
4. Movies cannot be studied apart from the technology used to produce
them. Hence, the students should necessarily be given some practical
exercises in the paper for internal marks.
5. The students should study cinema by watching through an open-ended
list of movies.
(Screening of films should depend to a great extent on the FORTE of the
teacher and the type of students in the class)
6. The teacher must briefly address diverse films in the course of their
lecture (Although thereare some specific subjects that can deal with films of
different types a special session must touch upon Cinema in all its possible
forms - to encompass from the ordinary Factual Documentary format to the
most effective Bumper Breaks/ Advertisements. From the special effects
total Sci-fi and Fiction films to the harsh Reality bite films. Even from
Promotional Corporate films and travelogues to the most stereotype telecast
of Newsreels)

SYSTEM OF MARKING:

Mumbai University.
B. The examination pattern should be strictly as per the guidelines of Mumbai
University
under the new credit based system sparing sufficient weightage for Internal
Marks examination through assignment of practical exercises.
C. As per the view of this Sub Committee, It would be only appropriate to
administer this paper by 60:40 ratio where 60 marks should be for theory and
40 marks for practical session.
PLEASE NOTE: The Sub Committee strongly suggests that the 40 marks for
internals (or 25 marks as in the present system) should be entirely retained for
practicals. This is quintessential for this paper and therefore the faculty for this
paper (Visiting faculty from Industry as well as Academicians) should be very
judicious in assigning the projects for the same.
D. Atleast one question from each module should be included for the term end
Question paper giving equal weightage to all modules.

IV.Introduction
The project report should be documented with scientific approach to the solution of the problem
that the students have sought to address. The project report should be prepared in order to solve
the problem in a methodical and professional manner, making due references to appropriate
techniques, technologies and professional standards. The student should start the documentation
process from the first phase of software development so that one can easily identify the issues to
be focused upon in the ultimate project report. The student should also include the details from
65
the project diary, in which they will record the progress of their project throughout the course.
The project report should contain enough details to enable examiners to evaluate the work. The
important points should be highlighted in the body of the report, with details often referred to
appendices.

Abstract

This should be one/two short paragraphs (100-150 words total), summarising the project work. It
is important that this is not just a re-statement of the original project outline. A suggested flow is
background, project aims and main achievements. From the abstract, a reader should be able to
ascertain if the project is of interest to them and, it should present results of which they may wish
to know more details.

Acknowledgements
This should express student‟s gratitude to those who have helped in the preparation of project.

Table of Contents: The table of contents gives the readers a view of the detailed structure of the
report. The students would need to provide section and subsection headings with associated
pages. The formatting details of these sections and subsections are given below.

Table of Figures: List of all Figures, Tables, Graphs, Charts etc. along with their page numbers
in a table of figures.

Chapter 1: Introduction

The introduction has several parts as given below:


Background: A description of the background and context of the project and its relation to work
already done in the area. Summarise existing work in the area concerned with the project work.

Objectives: Concise statement of the aims and objectives of the project. Define exactly what is
going to be done in the project; the objectives should be about 30 /40 words.
Purpose, Scope and Applicability: The description of Purpose, Scope, and Applicability are
given below:

• Purpose: Description of the topic of the project that answers questions on why this project is
being done. How the project could improve the system its significance and theoretical
framework.
• Scope: A brief overview of the methodology, assumptions and limitations. The students should
answer the question: What are the main issues being covered in the project? What are the main
functions of the project?
• Applicability: The student should explain the direct and indirect applications of their work.
Briefly discuss how this project will serve the computer world and people.
Achievements: Explain what knowledge the student achieved after the completion of the work.
What contributions has the project made to the chosen area? Goals achieved - describes the

69
degree to which the findings support the original objectives laid out by the project. The goals
may be partially or fully achieved, or exceeded.

Organisation of Report: Summarising the remaining chapters of the project report, in effect,
giving the reader an overview of what is to come in the project report.

Chapter 2: Survey of Technologies

In this chapter Survey of Technologies should demonstrate the students awareness and
understanding of Available Technologies related to the topic of the project. The student should
give the detail of all the related technologies that are necessary to complete the project. The
should describe the technologies available in the chosen area and present a comparative study of
all those Available Technologies. Explain why the student selected the one technology for the
completion of the objectives of the project.

Chapter 3: Requirements and Analysis

Problem Definition: Define the problem on which the students are working in the project.
Provide details of the overall problem and then divide the problem in to sub-problems. Define
each sub-problem clearly.
Requirements Specification: In this phase the student should define the requirements of the
system, independent of how these requirements will be accomplished. The Requirements
Specification describes the things in the system and the actions that can be done on these things.
Identify the operation and problems of the existing system.
Planning and Scheduling: Planning and scheduling is a complicated part of software
development. Planning, for our purposes, can be thought of as determining all the small tasks
that must be carried out in order to accomplish the goal. Planning also takes into account, rules,
known as constraints, which, control when certain tasks can or cannot happen. Scheduling can be
thought of as determining whether adequate resources are available to carry out the plan. The
student should show the Gantt chart and Program Evaluation Review Technique (PERT).

70
Software and Hardware Requirements: Define the details of all the software and hardware
needed for the development and implementation of the project.

• Hardware Requirement: In this section, the equipment, graphics card, numeric co-processor,
mouse, disk capacity, RAM capacity etc. necessary to run the software must be noted.
• Software Requirements: In this section, the operating system, the compiler, testing tools, linker,
and the libraries etc. necessary to compile, link and install the software must be listed.
Preliminary Product Description: Identify the requirements and objectives of the new system.
Define the functions and operation of the application/system the students are developing as
project.

Conceptual Models: The student should understand the problem domain and produce a model of
the system, which describes operations that can be performed on the system, and the allowable
sequences of those operations. Conceptual Models could consist of complete Data Flow
Diagrams, ER diagrams, Object-oriented diagrams, System Flowcharts etc.

Chapter 4: System Design

Describes desired features and operations in detail, including screen layouts, business rules,
process diagrams, pseudocode and other documentation.
Basic Modules: The students should follow the divide and conquer theory, so divide the overall
problem into more manageable parts and develop each part or module separately. When all
modules are ready, the student should integrate all the modules into one system. In this phase,
the student should briefly describe all the modules and the functionality of these modules.
Data Design: Data design will consist of how data is organised, managed and manipulated.
• Schema Design: Define the structure and explanation of schemas used in the project.
• Data Integrity and Constraints: Define and explain all the validity checks and constraints
provided to maintain data integrity.
Procedural Design: Procedural design is a systematic way for developing algorithms or
procedurals.

71
• Logic Diagrams: Define the systematical flow of procedure that improves its comprehension
and helps the programmer during implementation. e.g., Control Flow Chart, Process Diagrams
etc.
• Data Structures: Create and define the data structure used in procedures.
• Algorithms Design: With proper explanations of input data, output data, logic of processes,
design and explain the working of algorithms.

User Interface Design: Define user, task, environment analysis and how to map those
requirements in order to develop a “User Interface”. Describe the external and internal
components and the architecture of user interface. Show some rough pictorial views of the user
interface and its components.

Security Issues: Discuss Real-time considerations and Security issues related to the project and
explain how the student intends avoiding those security problems. What are the security policy
plans and architecture?

Test Cases Design: Define test cases, which will provide easy detection of errors and mistakes
with in a minimum period of time and with the least effort. Explain the different conditions in
which the students wish to ensure the correct working of theproject.

Chapter 5: Implementation and Testing


Implementation Approaches: Define the plan of implementation, and the standards the students
have used in the implementation.
Coding Details and Code Efficiency: Students not need include full source code, instead, include
only the important codes (algorithms, applets code, forms code etc). The program code should
contain comments needed for explaining the work a piece of code does. Comments may be
needed to explain why it does it, or, why it does a particular way.

The student can explain the function of the code with a shot of the output screen of that program
code.

72
• Code Efficiency: The student should explain how the code is efficient and how the students
have handled code optimisation.

Testing Approach: Testing should be according to the scheme presented in the system design
chapter and should follow some suitable model – e.g., category partition, state machine-based.
Both functional testing and user-acceptance testing are appropriate. Explain the approach of
testing.
• Unit Testing: Unit testing deals with testing a unit or module as a whole. This would test the
interaction of many functions but, do confine the test within one module.
• Integrated Testing: Brings all the modules together into a special testing environment, then
checks for errors, bugs and interoperability. It deals with tests for the entire application.
Application limits and features are tested here.
Modifications and Improvements: Once the students finish the testing they are bound to be faced
with bugs, errors and they will need to modify your source code to improve the system. Define
what modification are implemented in the system and how it improved the system.

Chapter 6: Results and Discussion


Test Reports: Explain the test results and reports based on the test cases, which should show that
theproject is capable of facing any problematic situation and that it works fine in different
conditions. Take the different sample inputs and show the outputs.
User Documentation: Define the working of the software; explain its different functions,
components with screen shots. The user document should provide all the details of the product in
such a way that any user reading the manual, is able to understand the working and functionality
of the document.
Chapter 7: Conclusions
Conclusion: The conclusions can be summarised in a fairly short chapter (2 or 3 pages). This
chapter brings together many of the points that would have made in the other chapters.
Limitations of the System: Explain the limitations encountered during the testing of the project
that the students were not able to modify. List the criticisms accepted during the demonstrations
of the project.

73
Future Scope of the Project describes two things: firstly, new areas of investigation prompted by
developments in this project, and secondly, parts of the current work that was not completed due
to time constraints and/or problems encountered.

REFERENCES

It is very important that the students acknowledge the work of others that they have used or
adapted in their own work, or that provides the essential background or context to the project.
The use of references is the standard way to do this. Please follow the given standard for the
references for books, journals, and online material. The citation is mandatory in both the reports.

GLOSSARY
If you the students any acronyms, abbreviations, symbols, or uncommon terms in the project
report then their meaning should be explained where they first occur. If they go on to use any of
them extensively then it is helpful to list them in this section and define the meaning.

APPENDICES
These may be provided to include further details of results, mathematical derivations, certain
illustrative parts of the program code (e.g., class interfaces), user documentation etc.

In particular, if there are technical details of the work done that might be useful to others who
wish to build on this work, but that are not sufficiently important to the project as a whole to

74
justify being discussed in the main body of the project, then they should be included as
appendices.

VI. SUMMARY
Project development usually involves an engineering approach to the design and development of
a software system that fulfils a practical need. Projects also often form an important focus for
discussion at interviews with future employers as they provide a detailed example of what the
students are capable of achieving. In this course the students can choose your project topic from
the lists given in Unit 4: Category-wise Problem Definition.

For the master’s documentation, the chapters cannot be dictated, they may vary
according to the type of project. However, in Semester III Project Documentation and
Viva Voce must contain at least 4 chapters (Introduction, Review of Literature,
Methodology / Approach, Proposed Design / UI design, etc. depending on the type of
project.) The Semester III report should be spiral bound.

In Semester IV, the remaining Chapters should be included (which should include
Experiments performed, Results and discussion, Conclusions and proposals for future
work, Appendices) and Bibliography - references and links. Semester IV report should
include all the chapters and should be hardbound.
