Lori Landay – The Language of Film and TV
As a composer or musician in the film and television industries, it’s essential to be able to communicate effectively with directors, producers, and others involved in the production of these media. The Language of Film and TV course is designed to give you a thorough understanding of film and television and, specifically, how they make meaning beyond their stories and characters.
The course guides you through the history of film and television and the crucial concepts about the language they use to reach their audiences – a language that includes camera, frame composition, lighting, production design, acting-styles, editing, dialogue, plot, genre, themes, sound, and point of view. You’ll learn about mise-en-scène, cinematography, and editing, so that you are well versed in the design and visual elements of film and television.
The course begins with an overview of the origins of cinema, exploring the contributions of Edison, the Lumière brothers, and Méliès, and then moves through the silent era into sound and the studio system, examining the role of narrative, acting, and sound and how they evolved. It then explores the emergence of television and how it became a part of everyday life.
You’ll also learn about documentary, experimental, and animated film, and examine how digital technology is changing film, television, and media today. Throughout the course, you will screen and analyze such films as The Great Train Robbery, It, The Crowd, Bringing Up Baby, Double Indemnity, North by Northwest, Citizen Kane, Singin’ in the Rain, Apocalypse Now, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, and others. You will also choose films from the American Film Institute’s 100 Years 100 Movies list and other sources for analysis. Television series include I Love Lucy and currently airing series.
The goal of the course is to provide you with the skills to interpret and analyze film and television, including their historical, stylistic, and narrative contexts, in order to better prepare you for working in these industries.
