After our modules on cinematography and editing, however, I realized it's because the shots rejected the 30-degree rule.

There’s a rule in film language where in order to make cuts seem natural, you cut on a 180 degrees axis on the axis of action. In addition, you have to cut at least 30 degrees away from the last shot in order for it to seem natural. If you break these rules, the shots will seem disjointed. Some auteurs break the rules on purpose to create a uneasy atmosphere. ]]> 2021-11-05 17:37:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870526800 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870527048 I learned about the different types of camera movement, such as motivated and unmotivated camera movement.]]> 2021-11-05 17:37:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870527048 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870527354 I've taken other film classes that discussed cinematography, but this one cleared up the specifics/gave me the vocabulary I needed to discuss it properly.]]> 2021-11-05 17:37:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870527354 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870532106 2021-11-05 17:39:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870532106 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870537281 I learn the amount of effect sound has on the audience, how it can play with the audiences eyes, and how they view the scene.]]> 2021-11-05 17:42:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870537281 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870542345 I have learned what mise en scene is, how to look for it, and how important it is for a movie]]> 2021-11-05 17:44:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870542345 mmayo13 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870646841 2021-11-05 18:42:13 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870646841 mmayo13 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870648819 2021-11-05 18:43:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870648819 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870661048 2021-11-05 18:50:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870661048 https://padlet.com/mmayo13/1yskkbke73uezoc3/wish/1870668343 I learned that there's a large separation between what sounds exists in the character's world and what is considered non-diegetic on top of recognizing how it can interplay with the film.
