It is the art form of story
telling. It answers the
questions: What a movie is all
about, characters, story itself,
etc
NARRATIVE
is defined as “writing in movement” and depends
largely on photography
CINEMATOGRAPHY
This includes framing and composition, shot size and type,
camera movement, lighting, and
color.
CINEMATOGRAPHY
is an aspect or film form that
includes everything that appears
before the camera within a shot
(sets, locations, actors, props,
costumes, light and shadow etc.)
Mise-en-scene
It is the linking of two
different pieces of film (i.e.
two different shots)
editing
connecting one scene to the
next and then several shots
in the same scene (Editor’s
job)
editing
It is often overlooked
because we tend to think of
film as a fundamentally
visual medium
sound
It is a powerful film technique
and it can actively shape how
we perceive and interpret the
image.
sound

directed towards fiction in dramatic story- telling
Narrative
Filmmaking
These are the films produced by
big studios and are widely screened
in theaters, broadcast on television, streamed on the internet and sold as DVD’s.

exposing and interpreting
real facts and historical
events
documentary
Filmmaking
It explores real events,
not all documentaries
present the absolute truth
documentary
Filmmaking
This is the most difficult
among all types of movies
experimental
Filmmaking
also known as “Avant
garde”, experimental films
are rare and unpopular
experimental
Filmmaking
is the creative conceptualization of graphic
descriptions of a building (building plans) or
blueprints that address a set of design
objectives (materials, construction
techniques, and instructions to successfully
translate the concept of the architect).
architecture
like wood or timber, bamboo,
rattan, leaves, and fibers are
abundant in historical architecture
because of
Plant-based Materials
refers to building with small
building units like concrete hollow
block, brick or stone, with mortar
or palitada
as a bonding agent
MASONRY
are extracted from mined
minerals from the earth.
They are favorable for their
durability and strength.
METALS
Is made up of silicates
(sand) and oxides fused at
high temperatures.
GLASS
often symbolizes
openness and lightness
GLASS
are made by combining two or
more materials with different
properties which result in unique
combinations of their properties
Composite
Minerals
relies on the sheer weight of the
building to support itself by using
thick walls, as in the Ivatan houses
LOAD-BEARING
Construction
consists of a horizontal member
called lintel or beam, supported at
both ends by vertical members called
post or columns
Post and lintel
Construction
are masonry constructions made of segments or blocks of stone or
brick, arranged in a curved
pattern.
Arches, vaulting
and Domes
is a single line of segmented
masonry arranged in curve
ARCH
an arch rotated on itself
DOME
is an arch stretched on its depth.
VAULT
is a three-dimensional curved
plate structure of reinforced
concrete whose thickness is
smaller compared to its dimension.
Thin shell
is a roof structure
in which strength and stiffness is
derived from a pleated or folded
geometry
FOLDED PLATE
is a three-dimensional
structural
framework in which all elements are
interconnected to maximize stability
and to effect resistance to loads
applied in any direction
Space frame
is a skeletal frame based on
triangles that are grouped into very
stable, strong polyhedrons (a very
solid geometric figures having many
faces and are found in nature).
Geodesic dome
This doesn’t require
interior supports
Geodesic dome
is a horizontal member
projecting beyond its support
cantilever
it overhangs and prevents
obstruction of movement beneath
them, which is why they are often
used in entrances and waiting areas
cantilever
Consists of carrying the structure
using steel cables attached to
vertical pylons or masts.
Suspension
Construction
carries a stretched membrane,
often used as roof in exhibition
tents or sports arenas.
