The Papertronic and eBook Images & Sounds provides you with a springboard for your students, helping them to understand:
- How to create video stories (exploring audiovisual narrative strategies, structures, codes and conventions – building characters, settings, plots and genres)
- How to produce videos (capturing space and time, using production design, directing, lighting, performance, cinematography, editing, and sound)
- How to recognise and use the repertoires of expressive forms and techniques found in the arts and used and modified in audiovisual composing – art (framing the shot), drama (performance), dance (choreographing the performer and camera person) and music (in the production of soundtracks)
- How to produce video – essays (factual and fictional), reports, poetry, letters and case-studies
- How audiovisual narratives were discovered and developed (through experiments by early film makers)
- How audiovisual composing began (the history that brought audiovisual inventors and creative makers together)
The ideas in Images & Sounds are uniquely revealed by linking the written word with over 140 video shorts. These are activated via pictures positioned in a side bar.
