WHO? WHAT? WHERE? WHEN? WHY? HOW?
The cinema asks & answers sooo many questions.
I think cinema and the television mediums are amazing. How they abide by certain rules in order to answer the above questions. I am studying Film history and research and believe it's relevant to this lecture. I love how the industry has evolved on so many levels, as this lecture demonstrated, the different shot sizes used in the right way can result in a huge emotional impact when watching a film or TV show. (For example, the close up can answer the question WHO? by showing the character in detail) It is so clever that we as the viewers don't consciously know why or how we are made to feel the way we do. Unless of course we take a closer look at such techniques that are used to manipulate our viewing experience.
