Glossary: FILM & TV GLOSSARY
sound perspective | |
---|---|
the sense of a sound's position in space, yielded by volume, timbre, pitch, and, in stereophonic reproduction systems, binaural information. | |
space | |
---|---|
At minimum, any film displays a two-dimensional graphic space, the flat composition of the image. In films which depict recognizable objects, a three-dimensional space is represented as well, which may be directly depicted as onscreen space, or suggested as offscreen space. In narrative film, one can also distinguish between story space, the locale of the totality of the action (whether shown or not) and plot space, the locales visibly and audibly represented in the scenes. | |
special effects | |
---|---|
a general term for various photographic manipulations that create fictitious spatial relations in the shot, such as superimposition, matte shots, and rear projection. | |
surrealism | |
---|---|
a movement in painting and film during the 1920's best represented by Salvador Dali and Luis Bunuel; also a film style reminiscent of that movement, either fantastic or psychologically distortive. | |
synchronous sound | |
---|---|
sound that is matched temporally with movements occurring in the images, as when dialogue corresponds to lip movements. | |
