प्रश्न
Every movie is worth critiquing. Describe in detail each point related to the film review with the help of the following web.
उत्तर
a. Plot Analysis: Plot analysis includes assessing the plot of the film, its characters, and events in detail. It can be a time-consuming activity and should be done with great precision.
b. Characterization: Characterization is a process in which the writer describes different characters in the film. This process consists of two types:
- Direct characterization
- Indirect characterization
Direct Characterization tells the audience about the personality of the characters in the film. On the other hand, indirect characterization describes the characteristics of a character. E.g. the way they talk, react, or respond to situations.
c. Cinematography: Cinematography is the art of photography and camera work involved in film making. A film reviewer can add important observations regarding the cinematography of the film to make the review more elaborative and descriptive.
d. The Genre: A film genre is a motion-picture category based on the film narrative elements or emotional elements in the movie. Some common film genres are romantic, comedy, tragic, horror, and action.
e. Script Writer: Scriptwriters are also known as scenarists and are responsible for drafting the storyline of a movie. They also plot events and characters for a film.
f. Acting: Acting is the face of any movie. The acting skills of the characters in the film determine the excellence of the movie. Reviewers often build their first impressions of a movie based upon the acting.
g. Direction: A director leads the entire team that works on a movie. He/she takes care of every single detail right from the script, casting, performance, editing, technical provisions as well as the post-production. Only an able direction can make a movie successful and gain good reviews from critiques.
h. Music and sound: Music and sound effects play a crucial role in making a movie engaging for the viewers. Apart from the visuals, music has a far-reaching impact on the audience. Reviewers critically analyse the quality and impact of music in a film and rate the movie accordingly.
