Composite Calendar
This masterclass will introduce you to some of the basic elements of Film Studies. The day will be broken into two parts with the morning session examining the formal aspects of film (for example, framing, editing, camera movement, sets, etc.) and the afternoon session will investigate the concepts of authorship, genre, and stardom and how they relate to film. Utilising various film examples from all over the world and from different historical time periods, you will have the opportunity to analyse specific sequences throughout the day. There is no requirement to have studied film before, just an enjoyment of cinema.
