The Little Things

Since I have taken up editing and working on post-production, I have started noticing so many things in movies that have never bugged me before. Even if I try to watch a movie as a 'normal' viewer- I can't. I notice the dialogue not synched up to the actors jaw from an over-the-shoulder shot. I can tell you if the lighting is motivated, if the cuts between make sense. I also notice that I freak out if the shot is amazing. The perfect lighting set up, the perfect shot, and amazing camera work. There are few scenes that seem to impress me anymore. Do I still love watching films? Of course. It takes many people to make a scene, and think of all the people that are on teh set that are there to make this story work. I watch films so I can support others that love the same passion as me. Without the support of people, we couldn't have an independent or a Hollywood films.
