What did filmmakers consider to be the advantage of silent films?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

people loved silent films because, let's face it, there were no movies with sound in creation at the time, so the silent film was a big enough step into the future. it was like the ipad. when the first ipad came out, no one cared that there was no 3G, eveyone bought it because it was so cool and revolutionary. then when the ipad 2 came out, everyone thought the first one was obsolete and not as good. also with silent movies, when they first came out they were so cool and new everyone wanted to see one. once the invention of movies with sound was made, it made silent films look bad

What education and training is required for a career in video or film making?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

== == well...you have to be technically capable of making a film. You have to have a clear idea of what you want your film to be...

Basically, you have to be able to take a story on paper (The script) and make it into a movie. If your just starting out, odds are, your gonna be doing a lot of jobs (i.e. Operating the camera, editing the footage, writing scripts) but if you get collaborators around with you, you'll be able to rely on them to help you make your film.

Also, some nice skills to have are...

- Technical understanding of Cameras/Cinematography

- Communication skill (So you can tell others (actors) what you want, and how you want it

- Commitment. If you ever want your movie to be finished, you have to completely committed to it getting done...or it won't

Knowledge in visual composition, writing, technical application, computers, and film in general. Personal skills needed are, organized, decisive, and management skills, because when a production is actually filmed, it is like an assembly-line of fragmented scenes all shot on a tight time schedule. A director needs to be organized, decisive, and have management skills because when a production is filmed, it is a series of fragmented scenes shot out of order and on a tight time schedule. A director is in charge of this assembly line, and in most cases answers to the producer. While not film producers or directors have earned degrees, but must have some sort of formal training, to understand the technical aspects of film making, equipment use or to make certain adjustments in angle or lighting to transform the image.

Quentin Tarantino was a high-school dropout and never spent a day in film school. A degree in journalism, communications, media or film will help. While earning your degree you can also work in local television which will give you experience, connections, and help pay the bills. Film and television are very related to each other. Directors usually have worked their way up doing physical production work. A degree in media, journalism or communications is very helpful. While earning your degree, you can also work in television at the same time and help pay the bills while in school. To see what I mean, read the article links. Hope this helps. Normally a degree in film, but there are other ways depending on your aspirations. The entertainment industry has many other opportunities to direct besides feature films.

Do films communicate?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes.

We humans need stories like we need air. You can imagine strangers sitting in a film house watching a story being told, and liken it to human history that began with people sitting around a fire listening to stories.

Cinema is a universal medium for communicating, since it's a visual medium. There is no language barrier for laughter or tears and all the emotions in between.

What is a realist film?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Realism has become one of the most contested terms in the history of cinema. Cinematic realism is neither a genre nor a movement, and it has neither rigid formal criteria nor specific subject matter. Probably not, as realism has been an extremely useful concept for asking questions about the nature of cinematographic images, the relation of film to reality, the credibility of images, and the role cinema plays in the organization and understanding of the world. Realism, at the very least, has been a productive illusion.

In film history, realism has designated two distinct modes of filmmaking and two approaches to the cinematographic image. In the first instance, cinematic realism refers to the verisimilitude of a film to the believability of its characters and events. This realism is most evident in the classical Hollywood cinema. The second instance of cinematic realism takes as its starting point the camera's mechanical reproduction of reality, and often ends up challenging the rules of Hollywood movie making.
