ARTS 4TH QUARTER

Cinema

is a high form of art, as it has the potential to convey the greatest range of human ideas and emotions in one entity of art.

Light Design

involves more than spotlighting, like mood lighting that helps set a scene, lighting transitions that help smoothen the going from one scene to the next and coordinating all the light elements

Illumination

The idea is to use light to make sure the camera (and the audience) can clearly see what needs to be seen in any given shot.

Forced perspective

Set design also includes enabling "camera tricks" like ____________, which makes people and places appear smaller or Targer than they are.

Light should appear natural

to hide from the audience the fact that more Illumination is present than what appears on screen

Key lights, fill lights, and back lights

Kinds of lights that combat dark shadows

Costume Designer

often must create the clothes that the actors wear themselves

Makeup Artists

they affect how a character looks onstage and onscreen, which in turn should elicit an emotional to make the actors look their best

Promotional Materials

amplify the hype and excitement around any concert, play, or movie.

Set Design

in theater and film is the master magician behind the visual illusion. It is the art of transforming a bare stage or blank screen into a believable world

Props
