What a shot is for

This lesson is not written yet. What follows is the outline it will be built on. The lab, the template and the artifact this module produces are real, and they are what the module is assessed on.

Next lesson: Reverse-engineer a scene and write the treatment

Module 1 is open with no account, and saving your progress is not. A free account keeps track of what you have finished.

Patrick Kriwanek opens with the question that decides everything downstream: what is this shot doing.

What this covers

Dramatic intention, and how it shows up in a frame.
Shot function, screen direction and coverage.
Point of view, montage, and what a cut asserts.
The difference between a beautiful image and a shot that earns its place.

Where it lands

The treatment you write here is the document the entire course builds against, including the hybrid shot plan in module 6.
