Melissa de Raaf: How to Use Time
– Editing in cinematic storytelling

Cinematic storytelling means organizing events and objects, and the development of characters, in time. In this talk, we will watch clips and look at their structure and discuss time-theories in (film)philosophy and scientific research. The aim is to talk about what time means for narrative structures and in building your screenplay as well as feeding your editing process.

*The talk will be in English 

Friday 11:30 Vesle Hallvard
