A Journey Into Telling a Story Visually



This part of your RTV course is an exploration into the magical world of Cinematography. Not merely the workings of a cameraperson, but “the writing with images in movement and with sounds”.  This journey begins with you here as you gain new insights, new experiences and end up with a lot of questions. Hopefully, some of your questions will be answered in the coming weeks. Learning, after all, is a lifelong pursuit, as is film making.
It is best to begin with “truth”. But do not confuse truth with reality. Truth may be real, or it may not be. Let’s use this opportunity to find our own individual truths and in the process learn more about the world around us, it’s people and most of all – about ourselves.
Carry your cameras, mp3 players, smartphones to class. Gain control of your tools and sharpen your means of expression. Share ideas, information and feelings and ask for help from members of your group. In working together you will maximize the benefits you will derive from this course. The course will be divided into two – theory and practical running concurrently. At the end of the course, each group will make one 10-15min documentary film.
Cheers! - Ajay
