The Scene in Cinema-Reflection #4

This reflection wants to tackle The Scene In Cinema class as a whole. The class was an interesting way to explore the subject of filmmaking in depth.

Analysing a scene is an important way to learn from someone with less work or someone else mistakes. It was very interesting to pose ourselves the question of how a certain scene would have been shot or analysing the thought process the director went through to shoot a scene in the best way possible. This was a way to discover amazing films and directors I previously did not know. One example could be the Open Doors. I never saw this movie before but after analysing a scene from this film in class I was curious to see the entire film and to my surprise I really enjoyed it. The way the actors play the characters in this film is something phenomenal so much so that sometimes you forget the events are not real. This holds true especially for the main character investigating the crime that takes place at the start of the film. The protagonist does not speak much throughout the film, is mostly listening and paying attention to what the other characters tell him.  It was a very interesting watch and discovery for me. Watching the film made me realise how sometimes actors do not need many lines or actions to perform, but yet still be the centre of a scene.

I found this aspect of filmmaking fascinating and it is only one of the many things learned in class. And I am sure the things I learned will be able to help me improve my filmmaking skills and help me with planning a scene more accurately.
