| Description: | Select Guide Rating The Art of Cinematic Storytelling is a practical and accessible introduction to effective design of shots, cuts, and transitions in filmmaking. The author, an experienced storyboard artist who worked on hundreds of television and film projects, invites readers to learn how to tell a story and create emotions through moving images. To dramatize a story using moving images, a director must have a full understanding of the meaning and emotional effect of all the various types of shots and cuts that are available to advance the story. Drawing upon his extensive experience as a storyboard artist who has worked with over 200 directors and cinematographers on television series and movies, author Kelly Gordon Brine provides a practical and accessible introduction to the design of shots, cuts, and transitions for film, television, animation, video, and game design.With hundreds of illustrations and diagrams, concise explanations of essential storytelling concepts, and vivid examples, The Art of Cinematic Storytelling demystifies the visual design choices that are fundamental to directing and editing. The author delves deeply into the techniques that visual storytellers use to captivate their audience, including blocking, camera positioning, transitions, and planning shots with continuity editing in mind. Practical advice on how to clarify time, space, and motion in many common situations — such as dialogue, pursuits, and driving sequences — makes this book an invaluable guide for all aspiring filmmakers. |
