I've started to collect together a load of references and technical information to get this idea rolling faster. I don't know how to organise it, and I don't really know where to start.
1. I am going to post it in a massive chunk of text to begin with, which outlines all of the technical 'variables' I think we can look to for translation into everyday effects.
2. Then I am going to find a few films that use these to iconic/recognisable effect.
3. Then I am going to see if I can link them to specific Directors. I have already tried to do this, but to be honest there are very few Directors who use techniques in such a way that they are completely identifiable as theirs: most are emulating/referencing others, and are subsequently emulated themselves... Lots of devices are used by multiple Directors to similar effect (except for Tarantino who seems to be totally credited with the Trunk Shot). Then there's Kubrick and Wes Anderson who like their symmetry, but other than that it's tough.
NEXT TIME: a great load of technical blurb.
