Session 2 and 3

On the second day of our course (the 27th) we spent the day being taught about differing areas of film. it started with our group being told about directing and a directors role in a production. after that we learnt about production design and how to set up a scene and how the visuals effect the story telling and setting. we then moved on to sound and were taught  about basic recording equipment and how it was used. Finally, we were taught about camera work and shots. There was also a guest speaker who talked the group through the ins and outs of costume design.
On the 28th, we were talked to by a director, who told us about such things as the difference between plot and story and the importance of structure. in that session we also watched "He loves me, He loves me not", a very interesting French film which showed us all how a feeling can be created towards certain characters by playing on structures we already recognise, then how easily they can be flipped and used to shock.
