ABSTRACT KENJI MIZOGUCHI CINEMATOGRAPHIC STYLE (LONG TAKE) IN THE "LIFE OF OHARU" (1952). Rickmarthel Julian Kayug I~ This study aimed to identify and study the techniques of cinematography (long take) through the review of the film "The Life of Oharu" (1952) directed by Kenji Mizoguchi. Long Take is the technique of taking a shot with a long duration that is not the same with the usual techniques (Bordwell D. (2008)). However, the duration of the 'long take' video or film is different depending on the influence of a director. Methods of data collection through content analysis is used to identify data about long take duration and themes found in the films studied. From the study, the researcher will produce a short video entitled 'Nexus'. vi ABSTRAK TEKNIK SINEMATOGRAFI (LONG TAKE) KENJI MIZOGUCHI DALAM FILEM "THE LIFE OF OHARU" (1952). Rickmarthel Julian Kayug Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti dan mengkaji mengenai teknik sinematografi (long take) melalui penelitian terhadap filem 'The Life of Oharu'(1952) arahan Kenji Mizoguchi. Long Take merupakan teknik pengambilan suatu shot yang panjang dengan durasi yang tidak sarna dengan teknik yang biasa. (Bordwell D. (2008)). Walau bagaimanapun, durasi suatu video atau filem long take adalah berbeza-beza bergantung kepada pengaruh seseorang pengarah. Kaedah pengumpulan data melalui analisa kandungan digunakan untuk mengenalpasti data mengenai durasi long take dan tema yang terdapat dalam filem yang dikaji.

This is because, If the technique of long tIlke not applied properly and carefully so that the scene will be bored. This statemented was supported by Mark Le Fanu's quote below. ... When it does not work it can be boring and aggravating. (Mark Le Fanu, 2005: 3) First of all, researchers would like to explain what is the definition of cinematographic and style. According to Encylopedia, Cinematography means the art and technology of motion-picture photography. It involves the composition of a scene, lighting of the set and actors, choice of cameras, camera angle, and also integration of special effects to achieve the photographic images desired by the director. Cinematography focuses on relations between the individual shots and groups of shots that make up a scene to produce a film's effect. While, according to Joyce M. Hawkins (2001), style means speaking or writing style; style; manner or style of doing something; the shape. To facilitate understanding of the Kenji Mizoguchi's cinematography style, researchers first need to know a little bit about the history of Japanese Cinema. Before discussing about the effects of long takes in terms of Kenji Mizoguchi, I first to define what a long take is, and then further specify what kind of long takes that this thesi '11 discuss. 1 According to Hsin-Ning Chang, (2008) in his thesis 'Viewing the Long Take in Post­ arid War II Films: A Cognitive Approach', College of Fine Arts of Ohio University, The ItlIce is a term that describes a film technique. It is a tenn used in film studies. David :-lkIlrclvvell has defined a take as "one run of the camera that records a single shot" (Film Art and he further describes a long take as a single shot that runs for an unusually long duration. In term of film studies, the researchers agreed with Hsin-Ning Chang (2008), about his statemented that the long take is a kind of cinematographic technique and not a theory in filmmaking. However, this technique (long take) have a different approach and different dw-ations than the usual technique. Furthermore, The tenn of long take is used also to avoids the ambiguous meanings of long shot, which can refer to the framing of a shot,and long cut, which can refer to either a whole version ofa film or the general editing pacing of the film.

Rossouw has recently been appointed as Head of the Department Art History and Image Studies – University of the Free State, South Africa – where he lectures in the Programme in Film and Visual Media. His latest publications appear in Short Film Studies, Image & Text, and New Review of Film and Television Studies. Abstract This essay considers the prominent role of acts and gestures of walking – a persistent, though critically neglected motif – in Terrence Malick’s cinema. In recognition of many intimate connections between walking and contemplation, I argue that Malick’s particular staging of walking characters, always in harmony with the camera’s own “walks”, comprises a key source for the “contemplative” effects that especially philo- sophical commentators like to attribute to his style. Achieving such effects, however, requires that viewers be sufficiently- en gaged by the walking presented on-screen. Accordingly, Mal- ick’s films do not fixate on single, extended episodes of walk- ing, as one would find in Slow Cinema. They instead strive to enact an experience of walking that induces in viewers a par- ticular sense of “walking-with”. In this regard, I examine Mal- ick’s continual reliance on two strategies: (a) Steadicam fol- lowing-shots of wandering figures, which involve viewers in their motion of walking; and (b) a strict avoidance of long takes in favor of cadenced montage, which invites viewers into a reflective rhythm of walking.

PROFESSOR: I want to talk a little bit about producing and realizing your visions, and give an example of some of the things that Chris was talking about. So we shot a video on how engines worked, and there is a part of the video where the two creators were talking about how a turbine engine works. And I think I might have told this story before, about how we ended up finding like an actual Boeing engine. But there are a lot of ways that we could have filmed this scene. We could have animated it, we could have done a wide frame shot with animation overlay, like I showed you with George's [INAUDIBLE] videos. We could have done B-roll, so we could have just done like close up shots of the engine while you heard Luke explaining how it worked, with his voiceover. Or we could have done a live explanation, which is what we went with. So this is how George shot Luke. We went with the traditional thirds framing. Again, this isn't necessarily a rule that you have to go by, it just worked really well for this scene. And we went with this because it also gave us the ability to do sort of an interesting point of view shot.

The camera and the operator can mount the dolly and access a smooth horizontal or vertical movement while filming a scene, minimizing any possibility of visual shaking. During the execution of dolly shots, the camera is either moved towards the subject while the film is rolling, or away from the subject while filming. This process is usually referred to as ‘dollying in’ or ‘dollying out’.

  • The General Idea Behind Editing in Narrative Film Is the Coordination of One Shot with Another in Order to Create a Coherent, Artistically Pleasing, Meaningful Whole
    Chapter 4: Editing Film 125: The Textbook © Lynne Lerych The general idea behind editing in narrative film is the coordination of one shot with another in order to create a coherent, artistically pleasing, meaningful whole. The system of editing employed in narrative film is called continuity editing – its purpose is to create and provide efficient, functional transitions. Sounds simple enough, right?1 Yeah, no. It’s not really that simple. These three desired qualities of narrative film editing – coherence, artistry, and meaning – are not easy to achieve, especially when you consider what the film editor begins with. The typical shooting phase of a typical two-hour narrative feature film lasts about eight weeks. During that time, the cinematography team may record anywhere from 20 or 30 hours of film on the relatively low end – up to the 240 hours of film that James Cameron and his cinematographer, Russell Carpenter, shot for Titanic – which eventually weighed in at 3 hours and 14 minutes by the time it reached theatres. Most filmmakers will shoot somewhere in between these extremes. No matter how you look at it, though, the editor knows from the outset that in all likelihood less than ten percent of the film shot will make its way into the final product. As if the sheer weight of the available footage weren’t enough, there is the reality that most scenes in feature films are shot out of sequence – in other words, they are typically shot in neither the chronological order of the story nor the temporal order of the film.

  • Film Glossary
    Glossary of Film Terms ANGLE – AKA camera angle. The viewpoint from which the subject of the shot is depicted AXIS OF ACTION – Also called the “180° line “is an imaginary line that passes through the two main actors of a scene, defining the spatial relations of all the elements of the scene as being to the right or left. 180 Degree Rule – The convention that the camera can be placed in any position as long as it remains on one side of the action. Establishing Shot - A long shot, often the first in a sequence, which establishes the positions of elements relative to each other and identifies the setting. Extreme Close-up - A shot in which a small object (e.g. a part of the body) fits easily within the frame. Framing - The size and position of objects relative to the edges of the screen; the arrangement of objects so that they fit within the actual boundaries of the film. HIGH-ANGLE SHOT – When the scene is filmed from above; often to make the subject(s) appear smaller. Long Shot – A shot in which a large object (e.g. a complete human figure) fits easily within the frame. Long Take – A shot that is allowed to continue for longer than usual without editing. LOW-ANGLE SHOT – When the scene is filmed from below; often to make the subject(s) appear larger. MEDIUM SHOT – Camera shot from medium distance, typically above the waist. Allows viewers to see body language, but not facial expressions. MONTAGE – Editing a sequence of shots or scenes together in a continuous sequence to more quickly convey information over a period of time.

    FILM HIEROPHANY ANALYSING THE SACRED IN AVANT-GARDE FILMS FROM THE 1920S TO 1950S by Lalipa Nilubol TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract 1 Introduction 3 Chapter 1: Eliade’s Hierophany and Its Application to Avant-garde Studies 46 Chapter 2: Artaud’s Film Theory and Theatrical Philosophy 99 Chapter 3: The Sacred in Film Poetry 135 Chapter 4: Mizoguchi’s Film Hierophany 193 Conclusion 264 Bibliography 288 1 ABSTRACT I am focusing my dissertation on the concept of ‗hierophany‘ as established by Mircea Eliade in order to formulate a theory of the ultimately cooperative relationship between the sacred and the avant-garde. On the outer surface, the relationship between the two seems intensely characterised by contention and conflict, due to the sacred being bound to the timeless, mythical dimension and the avant-garde being conventionally defined as a modern movement. However, I intend to re-theorise the avant-garde as being much more than a historically and culturally constrained phenomenon, that avant-garde — much like the sacred — is an inherent predisposition within the consciousness with transhistorical and transcultural qualities. And even though the sacred is normally associated with the archaic while the avant-garde is defined by a constant newness, I am setting out to establish that the archaic can indeed exhibit avant-garde aspects, and this is where my study of Antonin Artaud‘s theoretical material enters to help resolve such difficulties. Apart from upholding a dream cinema that detaches from (modern) conventions of aural narrative, Artaud proposes a revival of a mythical theatre, especially in his romantic idealisations of the Balinese theatre where the playing out of images and gestures is as he posits a process of transmutation channelled by the gods.
