From Film

"Old Arts" Through Film....

This directory is to support Film Analysis and Film directing classes: an intro to the basics. First is about Appreciation, second -- Applications.

Director and Directing: cinematography and actors

The idea of doing Theatre/Art Appreciation "through film" came to me, because I was teaching Film&Drama class. Since nowadays we are all familiar with many movies, it was easy to discuss the issues of dramatic composition using the popular film. I thought I can make it back from the Terminator to Aristotle...

"Man with the Camera" (1929): Film Language and Film Analysis. Dramatic analysis and use of the 6 categories (Poetics) in film studies. "Motion pictures": visual composition on the screen and history of fine art. Music in movies (sound).

Homework

Haiku -- Film Storyboard:

Sick and feverish
Glimpse of cherry blossoms
Still shivering.

(Exer. from the Film directing class)

NB

If you know next to nothing about film, start with ELEMENTS OF FILM. If you are interested in Film Studies, go for Film & Drama. In you are in filmmaking -- Film & Video Directing class. If you want to read what I think about the metaphysics of cinema, see POV.

If you are in 200X class, go to your course page!
