Böcker av Jane Barnwell

The Fundamentals of Film-Making provides an overview of the collaborative process of film-making.The book maps out the practical, technical and creative aspects involved, sets out the division of labour, and explains how each individual role combines to influence the final piece. The three primary stages of film production - pre-production, production and post-production - are covered through chapters dealing with each of the major departments: script; production; direction; production design; cinematography; sound and post-production.The book concludes with an examination of film analysis, providing context and connections between film theory and practice.

This book uses in-depth case studies to explore the significance of the design of the home on screen. The case studies employ a methodology Barnwell has pioneered for the analysis of production design called Visual Concept Analysis, which can be used as a key to decode the design of any given film.
