Title: The different shots and lighting tones reflect the different directions of the story and the characters.
I have come up with several questions that can be discussed on how to dig into the minor issues under the theme.
- In the different shots and lighting in a film, these guide the story and the audience’s perception of the characters.
- The different shots of different directors in different countries in similar storylines and the lighting indicate cultural differences.
- The shots in different eras and the expression of the light.
The teacher’s advice is to refer to Asian, American and British directors’ camera language and lighting, to compare them and to find out the different characteristics.
