Course Overview
Let’s be honest, watching a film is one of life’s great pleasures. But when you start learning a little bit more about how film actually works, how it’s built, how it guides your emotions, something incredible happens. You enjoy it more! You start noticing camera angles that add tension, music that hints at danger, and objects that quietly foreshadow a twist. In this course we’ll look at why certain stories feel satisfying, how directors from around the world use visual language to say things words can’t, and why some films get better every time you watch them.
