I found the Internet Movie Database to be invaluable when researching this book. The IMDB is an online reference tool with information on thousands of films, television shows, actors, directors, writers, and more. It can be found at imdb.com.
Netflix is another good option for those of you who want to keep up on everything from art films to new releases. Again, an easy find at netflix.com.
Thanks again to Jose Cruz for all his hard work and to Michael Wiese Productions for sending the royalty checks on time. I would also like to thank the many readers who purchased and supported the first edition of this book, making it a top seller in its field. I hope you enjoy the second edition as well.
If you are an aspiring filmmaker, this book is an ideal first choice to begin your studies. You can browse through the pages in any order, discovering new cinematic techniques. You can use these techniques in your own short films, watch the movies listed to see how the professionals use them, and expand the domain of your filmmaking knowledge.
If you are a film buff, youll find that this book is easy to understand, even for those who dont know anything about the film industry. If you want to know more about how movies work, study the techniques and watch for them in your favorite films. The movie-going experience can be made more enjoyable by understanding how cinema works.
If you are an experienced filmmaker, a storyboard artist, or an animator, use this book as a reference. It is the culmination of years of research. Why should you have to spend that amount of time when its already been done for you?
Stir lightly and enjoy what simmers.
This book began in the late 90s. I couldnt afford film school so my only option was to teach myself how movies work. How do you go about that? Well, you sit down and watch hundreds of films and you take notes. I started to re-view every scene I had previously watched and enjoyed as a viewer and tried to approach it with an analytical eye.
There are many common cinematic techniques that are shared across all films. Filmmakers rely on a set of proven cinematic brush strokes to communicate specific ideas/emotions to the audience. If these techniques can be categorized, it should help those who are diving into the realms of filmmaking knowledge for the first time.
Each cinematic technique has been given a unique name a condensed version of the elements purpose and description. These names are arbitrary you can call them whatever you want. The advantage to a label is that it gives you a tool to identify techniques used in the films you watch. This skill will greatly enhance your ability to learn from actively watching films, rather than only passively enjoying them. I have listed example films for many of these techniques, as well as storyboards. If you are interested in a particular technique, why not rent one of the example films?
Filmmaking is more than a technical skill. Its about establishing relationships with the cast and crew, becoming a leader, and pursuing your vision. Technical knowledge alone wont guarantee that youll become a great filmmaker, but it will help you become more fluent in the language of your craft.
As the result of years of research, the second edition has a lot more detail and information. I have added references to over 200 new films (350+ films referenced in total) and several new filmmaking techniques. Even if you already own the first edition, the volume of additional content makes this new version a valuable upgrade.
The criticisms for the first edition very commonly referred to the book as too simplistic. It seems that those who make this claim are missing the point. This book is intended to be a fast-and-easy mechanism to quickly gain an overview on filmmaking. Sure, there are several in-depth monster texts out there, but why should everyone be forced to slog through reams of material to get to the good stuff? Authors often inflate their egos by including irrelevant and unnecessary information, simply to boost word count. Not my thing.
Sometimes brevity can be the most effective approach.
I set out to write this book because I wanted to reach beyond the basic cinematic elements that many filmmaking books describe. One of the best ways to learn about these constructs is to watch as many movies as you can. Unfortunately, not everyone whos interested in filmmaking can dedicate that kind of time to the process. This book simplifies the ordeal by compiling the most common and distinct filmmaking techniques taken from hundreds of films.
It cant hurt to go over the basics before we arrive at the next plateau of cinematic techniques. I have attempted to provide methods for conceptualizing each element a way of visualizing what the technique actually looks like. Visualization skills should allow you to look at the world around you in a new, cinematic context. This new sight is similar to what artists see when they start to recognize lines and colors in the world, allowing them to create abstract representations of reality.
