One Of The Most Important Taking Pictures
1,702 words
The world of photography, especially in
journalism, is a complex weave of structure,
sight, composition, light, and texture. So there
is no wonder that some photographers must face a
very important decision - staging versus fate.
While both illustrate the skills involved in
taking pictures, these "directors" must often
choose their style (fate / staged ) for both
shots, no matter how hard one tries, will still be
able to be broken down. Meaning, many viewers will
deconstruct the photograph. If t...

The Birth Of A Nation And Greed

The progress of the film industry was remarkably
fast in the first quarter of this century. I have
chosen two films namely The Birth of a Nation
(1915) and Greed (1924) for comparison and
contrast to show how much the industry had evolved
within the short span of nine years. These two
films are chosen for the short time span between
them. This short time span will enable us to
evaluate the development of the film industry in
terms of the psychological build-up of the plot

Roman Polanskis Work Type Of Imagery Macbeth
674 words
Mastering Imagery Although I am mostly unfamiliar
with Roman Polanskis work, his use of imagery in
William Shakespeare's Macbeth was woven
meticulously. With some subtle, and some not so
subtle, applications of lighting, blood, and use
of the crown the film flows with multiple agendas.
Through the use of lighting Polanski set the mood
for this tragedy. During a good part of the film
the set is gloomy and rainy. Even though the sun
does break through from time to time I didnt
believe that these s...

Fifty Six Six Years

One of the worlds best movies is Casablanca. Many
things made this movie to the fine a movie as it
was. Things such as the actors, lighting, costume,
camera, and even the sound. People watching this
movie can feel both caught up and detached from
the plot at the same time. The Plot and Sub-Plot
work so well with the setting as well. It appeals
to many differnt audiences. If one has a morbid
and odd mind, such as mine, it can be compared to
modern movies such as John Carpenters Vampires.
