Recall the lesson about the tenses of verbs.
In the previous week, you learned about different forms and conventions of film
particularly, blocking.
Today, you will learn another convention of film which is direction.
Look at each picture below. Identify the two words that these four pictures convey. Write
your answer on the blanks.
Let’s Study This!
Have you ever wondered how a film is produced?
Who do you think are the people behind a film?
Who is the person responsible for directing a film?
What is your idea about film direction?
DIRECTION
Film direction is the process of making sure that every component of a movie runs
smoothly.
A film director is the person who directs the making of a film.
Generally, these directors work on a movie from its conception stage to its delivery stage.
They have a say in how the scenes unfold, what props are going to be used, how the
characters should look, and who should play specific parts. Directors also work with
individuals in charge of lighting, scenery, writing, and so forth, to make sure that all of the
elements come together.
The director is in charge of the three main phases: pre-production, production and
postproduction. Generally, he or she does not actually do the work for post-production,
but is in charge of overseeing it.
According to Peter D. Marshall, a renowened film director and film directing instructor, film
directors spend the majority of their time figuring out how to shoot the film first (cool visual
effects, creative shots and camera angles etc.) before they understand: a) what the story
is about and b) what the characters really want.
THE DIRECTOR AND THE STORY
There are many facets of a director’s preparation on any film or TV show, but the first,
and most important part of his job, is to understand every detail of the story: where it takes
place, who the characters are, and what happens to them.
PERFORMANCE
One of the main responsibilities of a film director is to help actors achieve a realistic
performance, and a good director does this by “listening for the truth” and by asking:
a. Do I believe them?
b. Do the words make sense?
c. Are the characters believable?

C. Caught up with the lesson
The key to getting a realistic performance from an actor is by first understanding the
character’s objectives – what the character wants in a scene.
THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE CAMERA
“Psychology of the Camera,” according to Marshall, are the visual meanings of shots and
angles. In other words, where the directors put the camera can either enhance or detract
the audience’s understanding of what the scene is really about, and what the characters
are feeling.
So, when a director is planning his shots, he has to ask himself: “What do I want the
audience to feel at this particular moment?”
Here are six camera choices a director can use to enhance viewers’ emotion:
1. The Lens
Lenses expand or compress space, so when the director chooses a lens, he is choosing
the “space” a shot takes place in. So before he chooses a lens for his shot, he has to ask
himself: “How intimate do I want to be with the character and how do I represent that
visually?”
2. Depth
The illusion of depth is a part of visual storytelling. To get this illusion of depth in a two
dimensional medium, the director has to block his scenes with an eye for depth. In other
words, he has to arrange his shots in three layers or planes: foreground, midground and
background.
3. Focus
One of the main jobs of a director is to direct the attention of the audience while telling a
visual story. So, where he places the focus in a shot is determined by what is important
in the frame.
4. Angle
The distance from a character’s eyeline affects the identification of the character with the
audience. There are three angles of view for the camera:
a. Objective: The audience point of view. (Camera is placed outside the action.)
b. Subjective: The camera acts as the viewer’s eyes. (Camera is placed inside the
action.)
c. Point of View: What the character is seeing. (Camera is the action.)
5. Frame
Because composition makes an emotional statement, the framing, emotion and meaning
of the composition comes from detailed script analysis by the director. In other words,
before framing the shot, he needs to know “What is the shot about?”
6. Motion
Motion can be applied to screen direction. It is also about camera movement. So, the
director should ask himself: “Why is the camera moving? Is it to follow the action, to reveal
information, or to reposition for a better frame?”
Task 1. Is Film Direction Important?
What do you think is the importance of film direction? Choose your partner and discuss
your answer with him/her.
Task 2. Viewing the Movie Clip!
Your teacher will show you a movie clip of “3 Idiots.” With your groupmates, discuss how the movie clip is
related to your real life experiences. Then, identify and describe how film
direction was applied according to camera choice assigned to your group.
Group 1 – Lens Group 4 – Angle
Group 2 – Depth Group 5 – Frame
Group 3 – Focus Group 6 – Motion
