A propos de cet article

496 Pages Indexed. Brand new condition. Interior text pages are flawless. Elements of Film Structure refers to the audiovisual design of a film and the particular tools and techniques used to create that design. Scholars sometimes refer to this by the term film form. A convenient way to illustrate this concept is to make a distinction between structure and content. Consider the average newspaper movie review. It provides a description of a film's story and a paragraph or two about the characters and the actors who play them. In addition, the reviewer might mention the theme or themes of the film. These descriptions of story, character, and theme address the content of the movie. Now, instead of thinking about content, one could ask about those things that help to create the story, give shape to the characters, and illustrate and visualize the themes. These are questions about the element of cinema-the camera, lights and color, production design, performance, editing, sound-and their organization in a given film. A helpful way of understanding film structure-and the material presented in these chapters is to map its components according to their place in the production process.
