Takeaway: It’s necessary to generate emotion; the audience has to feel something.
Assignment
Break down a scene from a favorite movie. (Badlands)
Composition
Negative space around characters draws attention. (TODO: insert illustration)
Eye Trace—thinking about where the eye moves from scene to scene—don’t jump around.
Public vs private compositions suggest the audience’s relationship with what is in the frame.
Frame within frame creates unease or tension by boxing in the characters within the frame.
Think of ways to convey emotion without relying on cutting from characters speaking dialog.
