Director

Casablanca is one of the most recognised films of all time. The film was released during the time of the WWII, so the audience highly related to it. The production of the film was extremely rushed in order for it to be released at the certain time. Its original release date was expected to be spring time 1943 but was then released in November 1942. This was to correspond with the Allied invasion of North America and the capture of Casablanca. Instead of only showing the political themes of the…

The action came on for trial on the counter-claim before Vaughan Williams J., when the liquidator was examined as a witness on behalf of the company, whilst evidence was given for the appellant by himself, and by his son, Emanuel Salomon, one of the members of the company, who had been employed in the business for nearly twenty years. The evidence shews that, before its transfer to the new company, the business had been prosperous, and had yielded to the appellant annual profits sufficient to…

This is an interesting concept on his movies because he is explaining how what one person thinks, but it someone else. This is just one of the few things that make Tim Burton and his movies so interesting, but the number one thing is something any director can use. The number one thing he does to make his movies, like Edward Scissorhands, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Corpse Bride. It’s incredibly interesting is how he is able to use his cinematic techniques in the movie. If he did not…

In total I have direct five short films. The most notable being two shorts entitled “Together” and “Retribution”. “Together” tells the story of a young widower haunted by extreme grief who spends his days communicating with a tablet as if it were the one he has lost. When the tablet is destroyed the man begins a quest to continue his coping method. Desperate and depressed, the man hires a woman to re-create the last moments of his previous relationship, all while dressed up as the woman he has…

Competent Italian filmmaker, Matteo Garrone, who over the last few years has been giving us memorable films such as “Gomorrah” and “Reality”, hauls us into three Baroque tales from the 17th century, in which the real and unreal go hand in hand. The director, who exquisitely and efficaciously brings in mystical elements and dreamlike sequences, mixing them with the ethereal music by Alexandre Desplat, combines fulgurant medieval settings to host the odd stories, loosely adapted from the…

When President Barack Obama signed Executive Order 13583 (2011), establishing a government-wide initiative to promote diversity and inclusion in the federal workforce, he set the standard for all corporations in America to recruit, hire, and retain a competitive and diverse workforce (para. 1). While diversity in business has been proven advantageous, as it brings a wide selection of backgrounds, talents, and perspectives to the table, we have yet to see that advantage fully translate to the…

Then, the addition of Sameera ( Abbaji’s daughter whom we don’t find in Macbeth ) and Guddu romance works well in creating a solid difference between Maqbool and Macbeth.So, all these differences make Maqbool fall into the ‘second mode” of film adaptation, as mentioned earlier. According to the French critic Jean Mitry , the adaptation of a work of literature to film rests on the absurd assumption that there exists a content which can be transferred —transformed-from one form of expression to…

In today’s society that there are some people who do not match up to society’s expectations and fit into the cultural norm. These unorthodox people are often known as the outcasts and tend to lead lives of isolation. Eccentric film director Tim Burton knows what it is like to be considered an outcast and brings this theme forward in many of his award winning films including Charlie and The Chocolate Factory and Edward Scissorhands. In these films, Burton uses long shots, low angles, and low key…

Directors use many cinematic elements and techniques to give their movies a mood or feeling but director Tim Burton does this especially well in his movies Edward Scissorhands and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Tim Burton uses many cinematic techniques in his films but the one technique that he does extraordinary in his films are camera angles. In his films, Tim Burton effectively uses the cinematic element of camera angles to create a sense of mood and feeling based on the type of camera he…

odd lines to create a film that was it’s own art form, when previously film had been more like filming a play. The oblique structures and hand painted sets were a completely different aspect of cinema that had previously never been explored by any director, and therefore contributed to the cinematic success of the film, with its relevance still intact almost 100 years proceeding its original release.…
