Film studies
How is it used to promote the intended emotional response from the scene?
Taking a cue from Joseph V. Mascelli’s, THE FIVE C’S OF CINEMATOGRAPHY, pick one of the five subject areas of the five C’s: Camera Angles, Continuity, Cutting, Close- ups, and Composition. Write an essay defining your choice and give specific examples from your personal observations or readings that support your point of view. For example, define composition? How is it used to promote the intended emotional response from the scene? How does composition serve the story? Are there compositional rules? What’s the point of view?
Feel free to discuss the topic, especially drawing from your personal filmmaking experiences.
