@tanchellaSound? 🤷🏻♂️
@ianmurray1173I like the way you go in medias res. So much better than long unnecessary introductions. Good videos, thourough but not too detailed. Perfect for a layman like me
@zoldan47you have great content brother. if you can do one video a month or 8 weeks that would be amazing. definitely CNN/National Geographic worthy, especially on Quentin
@elfoto4000Fantastick. Saw the inglorious Bastards analysis before this. Subbed.
Talk about 2001: A Space Odyssey...I was nine when that came out and my mother and I both went to see it. At the end it was like..dafuq...in 9yo language. Mom said basically...dafuq...and she was no slouch house Frau. At 61 I think I miss half of it, even knowing what it's trying to convey.
Don't ever delete this video form YouTube. Thanks for good uploads 🔥🔥
@subhasish_baruiThat's the reason why cinematography is one of the most important aspects of film making.
The five cinema reels on the Oscar award represents actors, directors, producers , screenplay writers and technicians. But I think they should remove producers and put cinematographers instead of just putting it in the whole term technicians.
Great video!! You are really good at what you do.
@702silverandblack5Good stuff. Thanks for this!
@thatjeffclaytonReally enjoyed this!! You have a lot of potential, would be great to see more videos.

@morningcoffee1111Could you list some books for film analysis? Awesome video btw.
@luiz_ed76Thanks for the video. It's well done. I thought I would mention another frequently used device similar to those mentioned. Some people may never notice it on a conscious level until the connection is made once. Then they will be inclined to make the connection thereafter. The entrapment of a character, whether current, foreshadowing, or referential of the past is frequently done by filming through bars or more often, something that represents bars. Of course, prison bars are on the nose and not really a metaphor, though sometimes it is reversed to show the guard through the bars as the guard may be the character who feels or is trapped in some way. Less obvious examples can be the oft used railings, window blinds, branches, open beams, fences, even striped clothing, like pajamas. In "Back to the Future," it was the uncle's playpen bars as his nephew quips, "Better get used to those bars..." since the uncle would spend some time at the "Greybar Hotel" later in life. It can be shadows of vertical lines around a character's shadow on the wall behind him or her. This device can be used to show a character's access to freedom as the bars disappear. Picture a character who was shown through window blinds as film openned. As the film ends she's seen to have earned her freedom with the same shot while another person opens the blinds allowing light to shine in on her.
@jdice6868Please make more.
