while also providing an invaluable guide to film interpretation. It takes readers step by step
through: -the basic technical terms -shot-by-shot analyses of film sequences -set design 
composition  editing  camera work  post-production  art direction and more -each chapter
provides clear examples and full colour images from classic as well as contemporary films Ryan
and Lenos's updated edition introduces students to the different kinds of lenses and their
effects  the multiple possibilities of lighting  and the way post-production modifies images
through such processes as saturation and desaturation. Students will learn to ask why the
camera is placed where it is  why an edit occurs where it does  or why the set is designed in a
certain way. The second section of the book focuses on critical analysis  introducing students
to the various approaches to film  from psychology to history  with new analysis on
postcolonial  transnational and Affect Theory. New to this edition is a third section featuring
several in-depth analyses of films to put into practice what comes before: The Birds  The
