Following an initial session involving a number of analyses of shots and sequences, the course looks at various art forms in which the various modes of representation concerned are brought together: musicals, melodramas, opera films, filmed ballets, animated films and even music videos. The following aspects will be particularly investigated: composition and camera movements, light, the organisation of space, acting, body movements, use of voices, cutting and editing, special effects during shooting or in post-production.
