Its always a meme class. I used to get drunk at the college pub before the class every time. We watched some decent movies I suppose, seven samurai, run lola run, a few others I didn't mind. But it was just an easy grade course with little depth

I would go with Cristopher Doyle too, because I don't remember the names of others whose work I like, and I don't know who the other guy uou mentioned is. I haven't watched his work.
Do normies know what cinematography is though?

Hero is a cool film and an excellent example of cinematography, because the same scene is shot several times with different colors for each character.

You need to get a certain amount of credits per semester in order to continue, and depending on the course you may or may not have the ability to choose the elective class in order to get the required credits.

Therefore if I was autistic enough to go on /tv/, I think it'd be a good idea to do a course based around film

Philosophy had some real boneheads. I had a 50+year-old woman argue with me in class that the Catholic Church commissioned and wrote the King James Bible to control people. I tried to explain that the Catholic Church commissioned the Douay-Rheims etc. This is memorable for me because of how vociferously she argued that particular point. Non-intervening professors that let people persist in error are a blight

It is pretty good and everyone here is on board that it will be cult classic in years to come.

>>79675834
You do realize that in the USA most teachers don't actually teach something they personally know well. They follow a curriculum which lays out the materials needed to teach the students. Some of them literally have "discussion time" where a few points of discussion are listed that the teacher needs to discuss and includes things the teacher must lead discussion away from.

This is how a lot of times, the smart kid in the class will know a shit load more than the teacher does. It is also why some odd random things are rewarded for while others are shot down.

It is not only for teaching content, it is for altering behavior in the students.

Is there any good way to self learn the kinda stuff you talk about in film classes? I'd like to find out more about the theory of this stuff. I know the very basics but thats about it.

Funny you should mention this. Just last night I had a stress dream about being back in highschool and I had forgotten my class schedule, so I didn't know which class to go to, and I had forgotten to do my homework.

It's all pretty simple just keep an eye on the following
>lighting
>shot angle
>framing
>colours
It all adds together to passively describe what's on screen. Just shot by shot a few movie scenes to understand what's going on and what you feel is conveyed. Or even if you still feel stumped just watch a few analysis' of movies on YouTube until you know what to look for.

Personally I feel a brilliantly made movie won't need to rely on dialogue to progress the story and establish scenarios and characters.

>>79682566
I was thinking the same the other day. My idea is that maybe some directors just give an outline of what they want and how they want it and let the cinematographer do his job.
On the other hand, I have never really heard about arguments with directors and cinematographers about things not coming out how they wanted them or anything that would show how much freedom they have (the infamous argument with Tarkovsky and his Mirror cinematographer didn't have to do with it).
