| "A director makes only one movie in his life. Then he breaks it into pieces and makes it again." - Jean Renoir
[ advertising space : webmaster ] Enter the name of a movie, TV show, or person and then click "Go" to get more information about it/them from imdb.com. So, in addition to the class syllabus I have to put the subject pages from the main directory in some order. Well, as you can see, I broke into traditional five major stages of making a movie.

SummaryThis class had many names: Elements of Film, Basic Filmmaking, Fundamentals... Most of my students come to the class after making some movies and my task is to help them in what they are doing anyway. The rules, the laws, the theory of film -- and the applications.Questions"Directing the camera"? Who does it? Director... I have to stop and think about it. Don't we have the script, the drama, which asks for the forms of its expression? Is it why we place actors in the middle of the conflict, letting the to cary the action? Do they, actors, "direct" the camera? Or maybe even more radical -- spectators? Because camera answers their desires to SEE it! Here I have to stop again and give some thought about what is spectator...The cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake. ~ Alfred Hitchcock Notes* Spring 2006 THR331 FunDAmental of direction StagematrixTo be an artist means to search, to find and look at these realities. To be an artist means to never look away. ~ Akira Kurosawa Independent Films : Independent Films and Independent Film Festivals *

This time I will try the linear narrative. From Intro to PS -- the way the class will go.I made this directory, because some subjects or areas are not covered in the main directory Film-North and in its subdirectories.
The five main parts:
Part I. Script: Development
Part II. PreProduction
Part III. Production
Part IV. PostProduction
Part V. Everything Else[ Keep in mind, this is only the notes, read the textbook for details! ]
I have a second (third) thought about this directory and the class: even I am to call it "FilmMaking 101," it's not Film Directing class (not real one), more an introduction to film directing. Should I call it "Film Directing for All"? "How to Use Film Language Shooting Video"?
[ Spring 2004 Textbook: "Grammar of the Film Language" by Daniel Arijon. Written from (mostly) editor's POV. "Camera only rules"? ]
How to use the ONLINE class at Yahoo? You are welcome to subscribe to Directors Forum (unmoderated).
Read your syllabus page please; print and keep it in your notebook!
Read film.vtheatre.net: I want to use film directing pages for other film classes (Film&Movies, for example, or/and 200X), there will be some changes to accomodate the new tasks -- you already see the "bars" like "topics" or/and "themes".
List of topics & subjects this textbook (Grammar of the film Language) doesn't cover:
1. Aesthetics (Analysis and Theory)
2. Script (Grammar of Drama)
3. Philosophy is missing -- and not in this book only. What is "cut"? Semiotics.
600 pp. in 10 weeks?
Summary: too general, too broad, about everything. Overview the position of a director, not analysis of the craft.
Explain the difference between directors and filmmakers. Movies and films. Why do we need so many different words?
[ the subject pages from the main directory filmplus.org are not incorporated ]
[ mostly the classics: Eisenstein, Bergman, Kurosawa, Fellini, Tarkovsky -- and mostly about the aesthetics of cinema ]
