Description

Emerging filmmakers need to know the basics of their art form: the language of the camera, and lenses, the different crew roles, the formats, the aspect ratios.

They also need to know some bare-bones theory: what an auteur is, what montage is, what genres are.

Most important, all filmmakers require serious grounding in film.

You cannot be a great artist if you aren't versed in great art.

An Introduction to Film covers all these aspects, from a director and filmmaker's perspective.

According to Cox, 'Academics have a very specific take on things, and a language of their own.

That take and that language aren't mine. I'm a film director, writer, actor and producer. So my 'intro to film' may be somewhat different from the standard introductory text.

I am less focused on film theory, and more on a film's meaning, the intentions of the filmmaker, and how they got their film made.'
