Film as Art

by Rudolf Arnheim
Product Group: Book
ISBN: 0520000358
Paperback: 230 pages
Condition: Very Good
Comments: Paperback from University of California Press; New Ed edition. This is a book of standards, a theory of film. The greater part of it is an adaptation of Film als Kunst, first pubilshed in 1932 in the original German and in English by Faber and Faber in 1933. Arnheim's provocative thesis is that the peculiar virtues of film as art derive from an exploitation of the limitations of the medium: the absence of sound, the absence of color, the lack of 3-dimensional depth. Silent-film artists made virtues of these necessities and were on their way to developing a distinctive art form. Mechanical advancement has led to greater realism and a corresponding loss in artistry. This sounds like just the book to use if you want to get into independent filmmaking, on the cheap, aiming for the artistry of the silent film era. I truly believe that the time is ripe for a renaissance of this old method of filmmaking. Maybe just for YouTube shorts. This copy has clean text, a little wear.
