1 Cinematography Videography An Overview

2 Cinematography Means literally: “ Writing in Movement” A better term than videography?

3 3 Basic Properties of Cinematography Photographic Quality of the Shot Framing of the Shot Duration of the Shot

4 (1) Photographic Qualities A. Range of Tonalities: Film stock different than video not the tape but the rec. format Filters Exposure B. Speed of Motion : Slow motion... Fast motion

5 (1) Photographic Qualities C. Perspective relations Choice of lens: wide-angle normal telephoto zoom lens

6 (1) Photographic Qualities C. Perspective relations (continued) Depth of Field and Focus: Deep Space -- staging in depth Deep Focus -- all in sharp focus Selective focus -- diff. planes in composition in sharp or soft focus

7 D. Perspective relations (continued): Special Effects Superimpositions Process shots (or composite shots): chromakey - blue/green screen matte shots traveling mattes now - digital effects: digital layering (1) Photographic Qualities

8 A. The size and shape of frame ASPECT RATIO (2) Framing

9 Aspect Ratios Academy ratio: 4 units wide SMPTE ratio 3 units high Ratio: 1.33:1

10 Aspect Ratios N.A. Widescreen: 5.53 units wide Today’s movie standard 3 units high Ratio: 1.85:1

11 Aspect Ratios European widescreen: 5 units wide 3 units high Ratio: 1.66:1 Close to HDTV standard: 16 to 9

12 Aspect Ratios Cinemascope: 7.05 units wide (anamorphic lens) 3 units high Ratio: 2.35:1

13 Aspect Ratios Todd-A0 (70 mm.): 6.63 units wide 3 units high Ratio: 2.2:1

14 (2) Framing B. ONSCREEN / OFFSCREEN SPACE Top Left Back Right Back Bottom Front

15 (2) Framing u Angle of framing u Level of framing (left/right horizon) u Height of framing u Distance of framing: long shot, medium shot, close-up, etc. u Point-of-view shots (POV)

16 (2) Framing Moving the frame: Pan Tilt Track (or dolly) Crane hand-held or Steadicam

17 Functions of frame movement 1. Changing space: onscreen & offscreen, angle, height, etc. 2. Fast or slow: any movement takes time to execute 3. Movement can be patterned to create a motif

18 (3) Shot Duration The “TAKE” - from moment camera starts recording until it stops The LONG TAKE

19 Lenses - Key concepts F-stop range:  more open less open  F/ 1.4, 2.0, 2.8, 4.0, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22  more light less light 

20 Lenses - Key concepts Focal length: Distance from optical center of lens to the focal plane of the CCD or target in mm fixed (prime) or variable (zoom)

21 Lenses - Key concepts Angle of view: normal, wide, telephoto Zoom ratio Zoom vs dolly image stablization (optical vs digital) lens speed = maximum aperture lens coatings lens protection

22 Lenses - Key concepts Depth of Field / Focal length / f-stop Focusing (a zoom) Auto-focus Macro-setting Filters Filter wheels

23 Video Cameras- Key terms and concepts

24 Cameras - Key concepts Tubes/CCDs and video resolution Minimum light levels -- expressed in footcandles (or lux = fc) Gain switch to boost TV white / TV black Auto white balancing / manual white balancing - auto continuous wb

25 Cameras - Key concepts Color Temperature 3200 º vs 5,500 º Adjustable shutter speed in video - very different from still camera

26 Cameras - Key concepts The viewfinder -- status indicators

27 Cameras - Key concepts Safe areas Adjusting the viewfinder Power supplies/batteries Connecting cables External audio connections Headphones Tripods (fluid heads/cam heads etc)
