Abstract
dc:description.abstract<p>Filmmakers are visual storytellers, thus it is important to understand basic film theory as well as the elements of a narrative, such as voice, look, and feel. It is just as important for filmmakers to understand how film theory and the elements of a narrative work together to effectively convey stories to the people viewing the film. In this thesis, I researched basic film theory and analyzed three personally influential movies and directors including Charlie Chaplin’s <em>Modern Times</em> (1936), Juan Antonio Bayona’s <em>The Impossible</em> (2012), and Akira Kurosawa’s <em>The Seven Samurai</em> (1954). I chose one technique from each of the the films, synthesized them into an original scene, and described the process of creating the scene.</p>
