My major in BA study is cinematography,so I would like to talk about Cinema cerite.
Cinema Verite movement is happened in 1960s, and the directors want to shot without a script and actors, use the small hand-held cameras, actual location and small budget. Their aim is to show life as it really is.(http://www.parlez-vous.com/misc/realism.htm)
Through the portable equipments, audience will see the people’s real life, like DON’T LOOK BACK, filmed by D.A.Pennebaker, recorded the life of one of the famous singers, Bob Dylan. The whole film is a part of his life, including his some concerts, the moments he wrote songs, the newspaper’s interview, and so on. It did not use the gorgeous places, or the famous locations, only use the usual surroundings, but we can really know it is the truth.
And another thing in this type of film, need our concern, I think is the editing. Because of non-scrip, after recorded , the director have to familar with all video sources and find the relation between every event they filmed, then he can decide how to link the different frames. According to above, I think it requires a lot in editing.
Nowadays, as a filmmaker, it is hard to avoid the influence from the commercial film, due to the big profit and a lot of mass audience. In my opinion, I think it is a treasurable spirit of filmmaker, as all films are based on real life, it should show the life we really live.
