In today's video, we'll cover key film blocking techniques that master directors use to create memorable scenes. Grab the FREE film blocking worksheet to stage scenes better: http://bit.ly/2A8cEIq

We’ll learn about directing actors and the basics of film blocking.

Does the idea of watching two people having a conversation sound exciting? Probably not. You probably wouldn’t pay money to see that. And yet you do every time you go to the movies.

How have so many filmmakers managed to make those conversations exciting?

Well, one big way is with film blocking. Film blocking is the “precise staging of actors in a performance”. In terms of cinema, it’s where you place your actors in the frame.

It’s more than who stands where. Film blocking conveys the mood and tone you convey with what happens in the frame. We’ll use film blocking and mis-en-scene to bolster your knowledge so you can take everything you learn on set.

We’ll incorporate Film Theory, Film Criticism, and practical reasoning to show you how to get the most out of your efforts.

In this video you’ll learn about Space, Shapes, and Lines in film blocking. By considering these components, you’ll be able to block a scene between any subjects in a visually dynamic way that is loaded with subtext.

So start watching and learn more about film blocking today!

300 First Battle Scene Breakdown — A look behind the scenes of the “Crazy Horse” shot and the ingenious way Zack Snyder and his team shot the Hot Gates Battle.

300 First Battle Scene Breakdown

It’s highly likely that when you saw 300’s first battle (aka the Hot Gates Battle), a single question came to mind. How did they shoot that? From the speed ramps to the morph zooms, there is a lot going on in this single-take fight scene, nicknamed the “Crazy Horse Shot.” In this 300 behind-the-scenes video, we’ll explain everything, including the ingenious idea Zack Snyder had to pull it off.

Zack Snyder’s 300 is full of amazing shots, it is a feast of eye candy. And a lot can be analyzed and appreciated about the use of slow motion, the surreal comic book look, or the special effects that brought it all together. But during the 300 first battle, there is a moment that stands above the rest. The idea was to shoot a single-take fight but also include speed ramps and zooms in and out of the action. Trying to execute this ambitious shot in a “oner” would be extremely difficult, especially the timing and precision.

So, why is it called the “Crazy Horse Shot”? Zack Snyder thought he might be able to use a camera rig that was also used in a TV movie called Crazy Horse. That rig consisted of two cameras (one shooting B&W, the other shooting color) that could capture the same exact image at the same time. This was done with a beam splitter, a prism that split light into two directions.

But instead of two cameras, Snyder wanted three — each fitted with a different focal length lens. This way, they could capture three different shot sizes (wide, full, medium) at the same time. Then in post-production, they could time exactly when to zoom in and out between those shots. This technique is called a morph zoom (or nested zoom) because the transition between the shots had to be manufactured in editing.

However, after they shot this iconic 300 fight battle scene, there was an issue with the focus and it had to be re-done. The revised plan simply had 3 cameras positioned as closely together as possible instead of requiring a beam splitter. And thus, the Hot Gates Battle was complete and it easily became one of the most stunning shots in the movie and in recent years. The 300 first battle scene is the perfect example of when a creative vision requires technical innovation. Zack Snyder and his team gave us a fresh and thrilling way to shoot action, all without traditional editing.

Production Design in The Boys ►► http://bit.ly/2lLKfBP

Today’s video is a filmmaking video essay on Amazon Prime video’s new show, The Boys. Our film theory and scene analysis on the scene elements and production design used in The Boys. This can include set dressing, movie props, and costumes.

Have you watched The Boys on Amazon prime video? We have, and we were excited when we heard that Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg were producers on the show. We were also excited to hear about The Boys cast which includes Jack Quaid.

Many had never even heard of The Boys comic, so when the first season of The Boys show came out, it was a total blindside. We found something else about the show that is really great — mise en scene. Mise en scene includes many things like scene elements and production design, and we found that The Boys did a great job at building a world.

The Boys had to choose production design and scene elements that were both satirical but also logical, and they needed to build a world that seemed legitimate. This includes the costumes, the movie props, the set dressing — all of the scene elements and mise en scene had to help show the difference in characters, in their circumstances, etc.

Out video teaches you about mise en scene, production design, and scene elements through our video essay on The Boys on Amazon prime video. Make sure to check it out so you can level up your own filmmaking skills with our scene analysis. It will be fun to see if they continue the excellence in The Boys season 2.

More Video Lighting Techniques ►► http://bit.ly/334Jq8v
More Cinematography Techniques, including a FREE Cinematography Checklist ►► http://bit.ly/3cxqK5z

Film lighting techniques can be simple, especially with a simple three-point lighting setup. But that doesn’t mean that you still can’t achieve that cinematic look. Cinematic lighting can be achieved with the 3 main light sources — the key light, the fill light, and the backlight. This combination is used in a large majority of film lighting setups and each light fulfills a function. What we want to explore in this video is just how important the fill light is to the overall look and feel of a shot. Of all three lights, the fill light just might the most important.

Contrast ratio is the relationship between the key light and fill light — in short, more fill light yields a low contrast lighting, while less fill light will achieve more high contrast lighting. Contrast ratio is all about determining the mood of a scene and that’s where the fill light’s purpose becomes so important. So many film lighting techniques revolve around adjusting contrast ratio through raising or lowering the level of the fill light.

Another aspect of film lighting techniques is the placement of each of these lights. In many cases, the key light is placed on the “smart side” of the subject — that is to say on the opposite side of the camera — and the fill light is often pointed at the subject from the same side as the camera (i.e., the “dumb side”). This is not a hard and fast rule in cinematic lighting but it does wonders for creating a layer of depth in the image. For many reasons, you can switch it up (e.g., dumb side key and smart side fill). It just depends on the scene and how you want to capture the moment.

Singer Tom Jones plans to get his DNA tested to find out if he has some black ancestry, he told The Times of London magazine in an interview published Saturday. The 75-year-old Welshman gained international fame in a career that has spanned over 50 years with hits like “It’s Not Unusual,” “What’s New Pussycat” and “She’s a Lady.” Jones, whose parents were Welsh and English, said his signature baritone voice and thick, curly hair has prompted questions about his race for years. “A lot of people still think I’m black,” Jones said.

More Over The Shoulder Shot Examples in Film ►► http://bit.ly/2GPWIgx

In today’s video, we’re going to take a look one of the most commonly used shots in film and television: The over-the-shoulder shot.

The over-the-shoulder shot (OTS) seems simple enough, seeing as the definition is in the name, but it is often used without the proper cinematic motivation.

It is true that you gain a sense of orientation by having a character’s shoulder in the frame, but there is also a significant psychological effect, and therefore significant emotions generated when you use an over-the-shoulder shot in film or television.

It might seem a bit trivial, but all of these little decisions add up to an effective, or ineffective storytelling experience. Oh, and you don’t have to exclusively use over-the-shoulder shots for dialogue scenes either.

Our video shows you:

Examples of over-the-shoulder shots.

Why you use an OTS shot in your story.

AND

How to go about surrounding your OTS shots.

When you finish this video, you will have a complete understanding of when, where, how, and why you use an OTS shot, and you’ll be able to use them to their maximum effect.

The end result: You will be able to signal to your viewer how they should feel about a relationship within your story.

Best Dinner Scenes in Movies and Why They Work ►► https://bit.ly/din-scenes

05:24 The Key to a Dinner Scene: What's Shared and What's Not
06:16 Learn More about Table Scenes

The dinner scene — sometimes considered the least cinematic and yet most common scene in many movies. Two characters sitting, eating, and talking can be found everywhere in cinema. From every decade and every genre, the eating scene is almost always about something other than the food. We’ve seen these scenes countless times but only a few are memorable. So, how do the best dinner scenes in movies give these obligatory moments life and personality?

In this video essay, our focus is how directors can use production design and set design, blocking and staging, and cinematography to craft cinematic dinner scenes. Consider the Hereditary dinner scene and how the blocking and framing of the characters purposefully enhance the drama.

What are we to make of the dinner scenes from Goodfellas and Jojo Rabbit, where the abundance or lack of food on the table gives us character and story information. How about the infamous breakfast montage from Citizen Kane where the camera pulls back to reveal the literal and figurative distance between Kane and his wife?

We can find one of the most awkward dinner scenes in Manchester by the Sea. As Patrick dines with his estranged mother and her new husband, the disconnect between them is all captured in the framing. As you start storyboarding your next dinner scene, remember to keep these considerations in mind — who is where, what is there, and what’s being shared. Because the best dinner scenes are rarely, if ever, about dinner.

Camera shots and camera angles — every shot, in a scene, in a sequence, and in a movie, needs to be decided on with purpose. Choosing between a close-up or a medium shot can mean a huge difference in how the moment is perceived and felt by the audience. There is psychology at play in film language and film theory, and it is up to the director when making a shot list to speak that language fluently.

In this video essay, we’ll cover the fundamental camera shots at your disposal, how each of them typically operates and how one film used that shot size particularly well. Movies like Coco, Avengers Endgame, The Godfather Part 2, The Favourite, and Phantom Thread use specific camera shots to capture the ideal presentation of a cinematic moment. From establishing shots in Blade Runner 2049 to extreme close ups in Kill Bill, we’ll illustrate the essential building blocks of cinematography.

This is the first episode of a new series called The Shot List, where we break down dozens of possibilities filmmakers have when deciding on camera shots and angles. Cinematography has a language all its own. The next time you sit down to create a shot list, remember that there are many (almost too many) options available. But when you know the power and purpose of each possibility, the decisions become easier and easier.

More Color Theory Examples & FREE Worksheet 👉 https://bit.ly/2LViEdp

Have you ever wondered about Color theory in Film?

You film color palette matters to the audience. It’s not only aesthetic, it also affects storytelling. This video takes you through director’s choices when it comes to colorization in their film works and how those colors get different emotional responses from the audience.

We break down color in TV, movie, and use film theory to extract meaning from specific choices. There are three components of color.

They are:

Hue - which is the color.

Saturation - the intensity of the color

Brightness - the brightness of the color

With just hue, saturation, and brightness (HSB for short) you can create a complex color scheme rather simply, and go from being just another director to a being a true visual artist.

By utilizing hue, saturation, and brightness you can precisely identify the right color create certain feelings in your audience.

Bright images often seem lively and exciting. Darker images often seem dramatic. And on it goes…

But rules were made to be broken.

What are some of your favorite moments of color in media and entertainment?

Denis Villeneuve movies are made to confuse you. At every opportunity — in the story, in the cinematography, editing, and music, Villeneuve wants to keep you guessing. Watching Denis Villeneuve movies is to be placed in an environment of uncertainty. And that’s what makes them so interesting.

In films like Enemy, Prisoners, Polytechnique, Blade Runner 2049, and Arrival, Villeneuve consistently creates awe and wonder with images and sounds we’ve never seen before. In Enemy, Adam (Jake Gyllenhaal) must confront the possibility that he is more than a single person. In Sicario, Kate (Emily Blunt) is pushed into the world of drug cartels by a tight-lipped company man (Josh Brolin) and a near-silent assassin (Benicio Del Toro). In Prisoners, Keller (Hugh Jackman) ventures into murky moral territory to find his kidnapped daughter. In Arrival, Louise (Amy Adams) and Ian (Jeremy Renner) are tasked with bridging the communication gap between beings from another dimension. In all these movies, the characters find themselves in new worlds without answers.

In this video, we’ve cracked the code on Villeneuve’s love of ambiguity and we explain how his directing style works across 7 areas of focus including sound, color, production design, and more. Villeneuve creates movies that can be enigmatic but there’s no denying that he is a film artist in complete control of his medium.

If you’re studying directing, cinematography, editing, or pursuing ANY career in filmmaking, there are a ton of lessons to be learned from Denis Villeneuve. This is the ultimate breakdown of Denis Villeneuve’s directing style.

Do you want to learn the secrets of Quentin Tarantino Filmmaking? Everyone knows that Quentin Tarantino Movies generate a lot of buzz, like his new film Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. His unique filmmaking and directing style is able to attract the biggest movie stars like Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, and Leonardo Dicaprio.

His career may have began with Reservoir Dogs, but it truly took off after the success of his second feature film, Pulp Fiction. Once the world was able to see films like Jackie Brown and then Kill Bill — It was all uphill from there. Quentin Tarantino went on to make Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, and The Hateful Eight. His least successful film, Death Proof, is still miles better than many other director’s best films.

In this episode of The Director’s Chair, we take Quentin Tarantino interview and quotes to build a video that explains his unique style… straight from the horse’s mouth. You’ll see how QT crafted some of the greatest moments in cinema, and learn some film theory in our video essay portion, then see some filmmaking process.
