CGAA Cinema: Director Techniques

I came across this great set of videos which attempt to distill a certain cinematic technique of a famously styled director into a short video. I thought the Stanley Kubrick one was particularly fascinating, as he made use of the singled point perspective camera angle all the way through his very long and very varied career.  Kubrick // One-Point Perspective Ozu // Passageways Tarantino // From Below Wes Anderson // From Above Sounds of Aronofsky

Documentary: Room 237.

I came across  this  on Empire today and thought I'd post it up just in case anyone hadn't heard about it yet.  " Rodney Ascher's look at several very close analyses of Stanley Kubrick's film by those who have studied it in great detail and come to some quite startling conclusions about it. " I got to see The Shining for the first time at uni and I thought it was amazing. Any film that makes the days of the week scary is powerful stuff, so I'm really looking forward to seeing this documentary. It will be out on October 26th and you can catch Empire's review of it in their next issue, although there is also a clue on the poster.
