differences would you take into consideration when
shooting horror, romantic comedy, detective, and
musical comedy genres. How would your lighting
choices support film storytelling, including setting tone
and mood? Provide examples of specific scenes.

Discuss with examples the fundamental elements of
setting (including but not limited to location, time, era,
weather, and buildings). Sometimes setting is
essential to a story, such as in The Perfect Storm, in
which the setting is so integral that it could be
considered a character unto itself. Are there other
instances when setting is not so essential? What other
elements of film might offset the impact of when/if
setting becomes secondary? How may changing the
setting to a different time and place affect a film?

How would you film your story into a 20-minute
segment your friends would sit through? And keep in
mind that in addition to entertainment, most dramas
are produced to convey a film-maker's point-of-view or
messages/lessons considered important. So first,
consider the mechanics. What types of lighting, sound,
and other technical techniques convey your drama's
theme? What framing and camera angles would you
use for each scene? Why? How will they convey
emotions? How will they contribute to your drama's
success? Similarly, what editing techniques would you
use, such as transitions in and between scenes, ways

Coordinating your responses here with DQ 1, consider
the story you wish to tell. Stories require conflict, or at
least a lot of tension, in order to generate interest. So,
first, what's the conflict in your story and how are you
plotting it out?
Also, movies, like plays and TV but unlike books, must
use what's called the objective point-of-view
because they cannot show directly what characters
are thinking and feeling. They are limited to showing
the exterior of characters in ways that reflect what's
going on internally. And they do so in compact units
called

DQ 3 covers settings. DQ 1 covers mechanics and DQ
2 covers characters and plotting. So it's only natural
that to tell your story, you need to provide the
fundamental elements of setting (including but not
limited to location, time, era, weather, and buildings).
Sometimes setting is essential to a story, such as in
The Perfect Storm, in which the setting is so integral
that it could be considered a character unto itself. And
there other instances when setting is not so essential.
Once you'd determined the influence setting will have
on your story and characters, you can turn to figuring
where and why you'd place doors, windows, tables,
stolen jewels, corpses, and other props. How would
you employ the setting, props, etc. to reveal character

One way of judging films (as well as literature, poetry,
other forms of drama, etc.) is through time
specifically, by responding to the four following
questions:

1. When was the particular film created and/or


produced? It is of an era, after all, and will reflect the
era's social morays, cultural quandaries, economic
conditions, and so forth.
2. When does the film take place? Very often serious
films reflect their era in a more honest and forthright
manner by disguising their contemporary issues in
prior or future times. It can help make the hard stuff
easier to swallow.
