This DVD teaches the language of film and television with a surprising and relevant twist: the video itself has an entertaining horror film plot (but nothing too scary). Set completely within a film studio, this unique educational DVD explores camera placement and other style techniques (lighting, sound, mise-en-scene, editing, etc.) commonly used to achieve specific effects and emotional responses in action, horror, and other film genres. Through its plot, this clever video teaches the distinctive vocabulary of film and TV by example, and demonstrates how to properly build a story arc to create an emotional and memorable film climax.
