Film Art: An Introduction ISE
Film is an art form with a language and an aesthetic all its own. Since 1979, Film Art has been the best-selling and most widely respected introduction to the analysis of cinema. Taking a skills-centered approach supported by examples from many periods and countries, the authors help students develop a core set of analytical skills that will enrich their understanding of any film, in any genre. In-depth examples deepen students' appreciation for how creative choices by filmmakers affect what viewers experience and how they respond. Film Art is generously illustrated with more than 1,000 frame enlargements taken directly from completed films, providing concrete illustrations of key concepts. Its Connect program includes invaluable tutorials featuring canonic film clips from the Criterion Collection. The thirteenth edition of Film Art includes extensively updated examples, and expanded coverage of digital filmmaking and the artistic and commercial implications of streaming.
