FS10030 - Introduction to Film Style & Aesthetics (Credit) 1 Sem 2017
Style in film for its own sake has little value. The real merit of film style is its ability to bring a film story to life in a distinctive audio visual manner.
This module is an introduction to motion picture production and technique. Specifically, it addresses the core crafts of editing, cinematography, sound, production design and directing. The module explores how these core crafts collaborate to shape what has become the most popular art form of our time.
