Performance and BBQ: Shock & Awe – Sat 28th May

Essay: The Magic of the Montage

May 4, 2016 by Jim Stephenson

The worlds of cinema and of photography run closely to one other. So many techniques are shared, adapted, lent and borrowed; only a few elements remain exclusively in the domain of one or the other. One such element that film can use with such power is editing, and the montage. Our resident film writer, Gabriel Gane, takes us through the history and it’s significance to storytelling, of this technique. Editing: The Magic of Montage “Editing is the basic creative force, by power of […]

Essay: Architecture in Film – A Foundation for Story

March 21, 2016 by Jim Stephenson
