Film Making : The A to Z

Posted on 02. Apr, 2007 by DigMo in Tutorials

Sollthars over at FxHome has written an excellent guide for the film making process. Every aspect of film making is a language – camera, light, costumes, acting, pacing, music, locations – similar to our spoken or written languages. It follows certain rules and it gets meaning through a certain combination of elements, and changes it’s meaning if these elements are switched or changed.

Always remember: These rules are guidelines to help make your movies more “professional” and easier and more pleasant to watch for your audience. If you know why, you can break them – but you need to know them first in order to break them.
