Year Published: 1973

Complete Record: This film defines and gives examples of the five basic elements in filmmaking that lend themselves to artistic control by the filmmaker and to critical analysis by the film “consumer”: composition, lighting, editing, filming of movement, and use of sound. The filmmaker uses these elements to express his ideas and to imbue the medium with artistic selection and sensitivity. The student is given a beginning film vocabulary and increases his own appreciation of films by an understanding of these elements.
