  1. Cinematic Points of View

  2. Definition • The different ways the movie camera sees the action taking place before it • Need not be consistent, unlike literature • Four points of view • Objective • Subjective • Indirect-subjective • Director’s interpretive

  3. Objective point of view • Camera is the window and the audience is outside the window looking in • Employs a static camera as much as possible • Suggests an emotional distance between camera and subject

  4. Subjective point of view • Forces us to become the characters and experience their emotions • Maintained by a moving camera • Experience becomes more intense and more immediate

  5. Indirect-subjective point of view • Does not provide a participant’s point of view, but it does bring us close to the action so that we feel intimately involved and our visual experience is intense

  6. Director’s interpretive point of view • Photographing a scene from special angles or with special lenses, or in slow or fast motion, and so on • The director imposes on the image a certain tone, emotional attitude, or style
