Film Art: An Introduction
- Stressing complete films instead of techniques
in isolation, chapter 2 & 3 introduce the idea
of film form, and chapters 4-8 explain individu-
al techniques and how they contribute to the aes-
thetic film experience.
- The Where to Go from Here section at the end of
most chapters raises issues and provokes discus-
sion. It also functions as a bibliographic
source for chapter specific issues and provides
simple exercises to help students better compre-
hend film techniques.
- Supporting the text, the accompanying tutorial
CD ROM helps clarify and reinforce specific con-
cepts addressed in the text through the use of
film clips (1-2 per chapter), a corresponding
commentary for each film clip, and a quiz for
students to test their understanding of the mate-
rial. This CD ROM is packaged FREE with all new
copies of the eighth edition of Film Art.
