Fincher's eye for detail and perfectionistic approach to filmmaking mirrors Kubricks filmography. In Fincher's films such as the social network, Kubrick's influence can be seen through Fincher's methodical examinations of human conditions.

"It's hard to do anything that doesn't owe some kind of debt that Stanley Kubrick did with music in movies. Inevitably, you're going to end up doing something that he's probably already done before. It can all seem like we're falling behind whatever he cam up with."

Kubrick's unique take on filmmaking has considered him to be one of the most influential filmmakers; Kubrick's 2001:A Space Odyssey highly influenced Chris Nolans passion for filmmaking, particularly Interstellar.

Stanley Kubrick's passion of chess and photography enlightened his unique take on film, as he states 'If chess has any relationship to filmmaking, it would be in the way it helps you to develop patience and discipline in choosing between alternatives at a time when impulsive decision seems very attractive'. Kubrick's aesthetics of his films cause his viewers to feel unsettled and enticed at the same time. Kubrick also contributed from a technical perspective, being one of the pioneers of steadicam during the shining.

Each film is unique and pushes his boundaries each time. Themes in Kubrick's work include the dehumanising effects of violence and war, the human psyche, society and norm, evolution, man v machine. Kubrick creates a striking contrast using juxtaposition. A particular characteristic of Kubrick's work is the way he uses the camera to increase dramatic tension and to draw the viewer in the middle of action. He does this by taking advantage of the mobility of the camera and carefully planning shooting angles to increase visual intensity; through the use of space, light and shadows Kubrick creates an environment that reflects the characters internal emotional state. Kubrick emphasises the feeling of helplessness that results from being locked in by certain physical circumstances or emotional situations.

Kubrick learned from Singer that the March of Time documentary shorts were budgeted at $40,000 a piece, and he speculated that he could produce a documentary for a fraction pf that cost. Drawing on the Walter Cartier picture story, Kubrick made a 16 minute short called Day of the Fight (1950), documenting the boxing match between Cartier and middleweight boxer Bobby James he'd in Newark, New Jersey in April 17, 1950.

Kubrick did everything himself, from writing and shooting the film to dubbing in the punches and the slams of car doors on the sound track.

Kubrick stages his scenes so a single frame has a complete story, his staging has deep meaning.

In this scene the Droogs are positioned in a triangle, with Georgie's legs extended towards Dim, Alex's blunt end of his cain is aimed at Dim. All eyes turn to Georgie, guiding our eyes as well. Afterwards, Georgie leans in behind Dim with a sinister shadow behind himself, Kubrick stages Georgie and Dim this way which tells the audience where the allegiances lie. Soon after, Kubrick cuts to a wide shot, once again the pointed end of the cain is aimed at Dim, several shadows of the objects and characters guide our eyes towards Dim, Kubrick then presents a moment of intimidation, As Alex sits on Dims lap the entire scene is clearly about alpha status.

Red is often used in moments where danger or threat is immanent or in scenes of emotional intensity.
Orange becomes a destructive colour (candle light or fire and flames)
Yellow (and gold) can be found to be used for opulent and grandiose or as a way too isolate characters from the background.
Green is used as a natural colour, as symbols for life and death.
Blue is uniquely used by Kubrick as exaggerated moonlight, but through this he adds a layer of sin and guilt.
Purple can be used by Kubrick for temptation.
Kubrick often uses white for contrast, either to allow other colours to pop or to complicate our associations with white as a symbol or purity.

This was the first film for which Kubrick wrote the screenplay single-handedly. Of all his films that he made in Britain, A clockwork orange and Barry Lyndon were the only ones who's cultural background is truly English.
The screenplays of both A clockwork orange and Barry Lyndon were moreover, faithful adaptations of carefully structured narratives to which Kubrick made important but not radical changes. After working for four months - and using a computer for the first time, which enabled him to rearranged scenes digitally - he completed a first draft of the screen play on May 15, 1970, using an unusual presentation: the action was described in the centre of the page and the dialogue set out on either side.

the role of close ups is to highlight a single moment that tells the audience that this is something significant that requires your full attention.

The big centrally framed close up puts the viewer in the characters troubled mindset. Kubrick will also hold a close up at length for maximum impact; using the close up at the end of the scene used for realisation.

This particular brand of the close up gives us a glimpse of humanity's ugliest states of mind through the gaze of these characters.

Kubrick often shots groups of characters, increasing the significance of the close up as he forces the viewer to question its significance.

"Perhaps it sounds ridiculous, but the best thing that young filmmakers can do is get a hold of a camera and some film and make a movie of any kind at all"

Tarantino - Tarantino tends to present his films in nonlinear format, starting with reservoir dogs. Kubrick designed the killing in a nonlinear format to see how that played out (such as Maurices perspective firstly of the bar fight, about 10 minutes later, we see the perspective f George and Johnny demonstrating George using the distraction to smuggle money), this would have been very untraditional way of storytelling.

Chris Nolan - The dark knight rises, Nolan starts the movie with an intricately planned bank robbery where all the criminals wear masks like the on Johnny wears in the killing.

Kubrick uses a flower box that he stored in his locker, Johnny opens Mike's locker and he removes and assembles the gun: this influential moment is used in blockbuster films, such as the Godfather, Dog day afternoon and Terminator 2: Judgement day.

The steadicam (stabiliser mount) was first introduced in 1975 and beloved by Stanley Kubrick, who loved to keep his camera in motion in films. While the steadicam brought many iconic scenes to life, Danny's wheel ride is arguably the most iconic - which required flipping the steadicam system upside down and zooming it 2-3 inches off the floor while the operator rode in a specially designed wheelchair.
