Auteur study is a key element of Film Studies, and has become
increasingly important in Media Studies, thanks to the popularity
of cult auteurs such as Tarantino and Fincher. However, this
theoretical aspect of film can seem obscure and difficult to
communicate. Teaching Auteur Study provides a coherent and clear
approach to the topic. Using examples throughout, the guide
outlines the main elements of Auteur theory, provides an overview
of how it developed, summarising some of its main proponents, and
considers the influence it has had in the way we think about film.
It summarises the criteria for defining a filmmaker as an auteur
and explores issues of creative control. The guide also looks at
the idea of film authorship from the point of view of the audience,
and how it influences audience expectations and marketing
campaigns.
