Cinematography - Definition and Overview |
|
|
Cinematography is the art and process of recording visual images for motion pictures. A professional who engages in cinematography is known as a cinematographer.
As a process, it is closely related to photography. Cinematography involves the framing of a shot, the photographic aspects of a shot
and duration of the shot.
Like photography, cinematography is a creative and interpretive process that affects the motion picture as an aesthetic product. A cinematographer frequently has to work together with a director to ensure the artistic coherence of the final product.
Cinematographic effects include sound, lighting, camera angles, and appearance (scenery, costumes, etc.).
