Document Summary
Attempt the exercises on avenue discussions: the key idea is to talk about the materials used, (glass, wood, stone) this changes the way we understand what we"re looking at. What direction is it coming from (above, front, behind, side?) these have a very drastic effect in a film all the time. The way things are lit perceive the way that we look at things (how does this make shadows) Shape and size: there are several different types of lights: floodlights vs spotlights. We can also change the shape of lights. There are also sometimes patterns to break up space and give the place some texture. Lights are important to show us what to choose to look at. The shift of intensity can create different impacts. Don"t rely exclusively on colour and what colour means. Try to reach for more complexity (be more subtle and sophisticated) Focus attention: when we make arguments of what"s happening.
