As always, faculty and staff have worked hard to develop courses and programs that will excite and challenge you; that take on current, resonant topics in art and culture; and that will enhance the technical and conceptual underpinnings of your work. Among the number of noteworthy developments in SFAI’s programs for this academic year are two I would highlight. First, the Institute will begin offering Minors at the undergraduate level. This new structure opens up further opportunities for exploration across departments, and speaks to our commitment to interdisciplinary (yet in-depth) study. Second, the school has reconfigured the undergraduate First Year Program to strengthen students’ ties to SFAI’s creative and intellectual community, as well as the broader artistic and cultural resources of the Bay Area. -
Cinema Vérité & Direct Cinema 1960-1970
Cinema Vérité & Direct Cinema 1960-1970 Historical context Cinéma verité: French film movement of the 1960s that showed people in everyday situations with authentic dialogue and naturalness of action. Rather than following the usual technique of shooting sound and pictures together, the filmmaker first tapes actual conversations, interviews and opinions. After selecting the best material, he films the visual material to fit the sound, often using a hand-held camera. The film is then put together in the cutting room. Encyclopedia Britannica Direct Cinema: The invention of relatively inexpensive, portable, but thoroughly professional 16 mm equipment – and the synchronous sound recorder – facilitated the development of a similar movement in the US at just about the same time. Sometimes called cinema verite, sometimes simply ‘direct cinema’, its goal was essentially the capturing of the reality of a person, a moment, or an event without any rearrangement for the camera. Leading American practitioners were Ricky Leacock (Primary, 1960), Frederick Wiseman (Titicut Follies, 1967), Donn Pennebaker (Monterey Pop, 1968) and the Maysles brothers (Salesman, 1969) Encyclopedia Britannica Technological changes Until 1960s synchronous recording of sight & sound on location – difficult to impossible Standard documentary sound-film method - shooting silent - subsequent addition of sound – words, music, sound effects - voice-over commentary (almost) obligatory adds information & interpretation e.g. Grierson, Lorentz This style characterizes documentaries -
