. Film Course: Cinematography Visual Story Telling Creating films is about telling a story in a visual medium. There are certain visual effects which tell a story in a more believable manner. Bad cinematography can ruin even the best of scripts. The second the eye stops believing in the film, the whole movie becomes one big visual distraction. If the camera work is terrible, the angles awkward and the cutting distracting, the audience will focus on those elements rather than get lost as an active observer of the story. Creating movies is about creating an illusion. It's about making the viewers believe they are in the scenes with the actors as an observer. As a visual story teller it's your responsibility to ensure your audience can remain in this fantasy land for the duration of your film. If you don't understand cinematography then you won't be able to keep your audience believing in the 3 dimensional illusion of your story. Therefore our film school focuses heavily on cinematography and the process of creating a breathtakingly believable film.          .
