The Language of the Lens explores the expressive power of the
camera lens and the storytelling contributions that this critical
tool can make to a film project. This book offers a unique approach
to learning how lenses can produce aesthetically and narratively
compelling images in movies, through a close examination of the
various ways lens techniques control the look of space, movement,
focus, flares, distortion, and the "optical personality" of your
story's visual landscape. Loaded with vivid examples from
commercial, independent, and world cinema, The Language of the Lens
presents dozens of insightful case studies examining their
conceptual, narrative, and technical approaches to reveal how
master filmmakers have harnessed the power of lenses to express the
entire range of emotions, themes, tone, atmosphere, subtexts,
moods, and abstract concepts. The Language of the Lens provides
filmmakers, at any level or experience, with a wealth of knowledge
to unleash the full expressive power of any lens at their disposal,
whether they are shooting with state-of-the-art cinema lenses or a
smartphone, and everything in between.
