4.9/5 (9522 ratings)

Description:The cinematographer must translate the ideas and emotions contained in a script into something that can be physically seen and felt onscreen, helping the director to fulfil the vision of the film. The shots may look good, but they will not serve the story until the composition, lenses, and lighting express, enhance, and reveal the underlying emotions and subtext of the story. By making physical the ideas and emotions of the story, the cinematographer supports blocking as a visual form of the story through these tools.Rather than delve into technical training, Basic Cinematography helps to train the eye and heart of cinematographers as visual storytellers, providing them with a strong foundation for their work, so that they're ready with creative ideas and choices on set in order to make compelling images that support the story.The book includes tools, tables, and worksheets on how to enhance students and experienced filmmakerswith strong visual storytelling possibilities, including such features as:Dramatic script analysis that will help unlock blocking, composition, and lighting ideas that reveal the visual storyTen tools of compositionPsychological impact of lenses, shot sizes, and camera movementSix elements of lighting for visual storytellingWhat to look for beneath the "hood" of cameras, including using camera log, RAW, and LUTsDramatic analysis chart and scene composition chart to help plan your shootsCase studies from such visually cinematic shows and documentaries as Netflix's Godless, Jessica Jones, The Crown, and Chef's Table, as well as examples from classroom exercisesFeatures insights from the DP of Jessica Jones, Manuel Billeter, and the DP of Chef's Table, Adam Bricker.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
