PLANNING & STRUCTURING AN ESSAY Suggested Research Question. This can be a topic or theme, but please try to be as precise as possible. The chosen essay topic/theme is on the subject of Modernism and how the movement has influenced sci-fi aesthetically. The aim is to discuss whether or not Modernism and its sub-movements (Vorticism, Cubism, Futurism, Minimalism, etc) have affected sci-fi directly. The focus will be on whether or not the visual language used in sci-fi cinema has been affected by the afore mentioned movements. However, the principles and philosophy of Modernism and how they have affected science fiction may also be considered and discussed. This discussion will result in an exploration and conclusion of exactly how much impact the movement has had on sci-fi cinema, if any.
