I decided to look at some film basics this time and look at film grammar. Although I am aware of standards and techniques used, I decided to delve deeper in the subject by reading Cinematic Storytelling The 100 Most PowerfulFilm Conventions Every Filmmaker Must Know by Jennifer Van Sijill.
The book looks at film grammar and techniques used in film and how these techniques are used and what they mean to the story. It attaches part of a script, with screen shots from the film and a description on what the shots mean and what is happening.
It was a huge benefit to remind myself of these techniques as it refreshed my memory of shots and got my brain working in terms of thinking of shots.
