I love movies. For as long as I can remember, I’ve harvested a passionate, slightly embarrassing obsession with film. The way in which cinema can paint such vivid and beautiful moving images, portray moving stories containing a wide range of emotion and narrative threads, leaving a long-term impact on the viewer, all within a runtime of two hours or so, captured my fascination at an early age. This fascination continues to this day. While I cannot state for certain the first film I ever watched (My

Enter. A simple word that has so many meanings to me. In this instance, it meant to begin exporting a film from Final Cut onto Quicktime. Such a small act at that moment felt like one of the greatest feats of my life. I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms as I watched the bar begin to load, signaling that my film would be finished exporting in forty-two minutes. Forty-two minutes until it was finished and another two and a half hours before it was to be shown in front of a crowd of hundreds

Over the year or so that I have been interviewing actors, I have discovered so many remarkably gifted and exceptionally grounded young people in the industry.

While I am new to her talent, she and I recently discussed how she got started in her acting career, what her current and notable works are, and even how she manages her free time and outside interests. RH: Lizzie, I am so glad

Emphasizing the randomness in dream and the interpretation of dreams became a significant feature of Lynch’s work. Thus, it is important to learn from classic theorists to find my own style. Secondly, courses at SFAI are based on enabling student understanding toward the fundamental process of film, especially in a very unique Wet Lab offering

The beginning of the motion picture industry can perhaps be traced back to a mid seventeenth century invention called the “ Magic Lantern.” Dutchman Christiann Huygens is arguably the inventor of the “Magic Lantern.” Over two centuries later, Leland Stanford hired Edward Muybridge to attempt to capture the complete motion of a horse galloping to win a bet. Stanford’s theory was that all four legs of the horse leave the ground at the same time. He was correct. This was the huge step in bringing motion

The music video “Call me Maybe” seems very typical when listening to the lyrics but has a quirky uniqueness to it that could impact pop culture forever. Although the text seems quite typical, consisting of an attractive looking male and female in today’s society crushing on each other; it has a unique twist to it. It challenges hegemony by the girl, which is Carly being the one to hit on her neighbor instead of the guy chasing after the girl like in most media such as movies like “The Notebook”.

Life of James Albert Ukawsaw Gronniosaw written by himself, (For the purpose of this essay, ‘A Narrative.’) is an autobiographical, and spiritual account of Gronniosaw’s Journey.

Brian Hu, the “Asian Film” & the Supernatural. “Fuck this shit. See you next year Cannes. Out”. Is a bold twitter quote from the very famous Brian Hu which gave a lecture at CSU San Marcos film class October 20th 2015. He is the artistic director of Pacific Arts Movement and of the San Diego Asian Film Foundation who received his PhD in Cinema and Media Studies at UCLA.
