the film students

shushing your friends in the theater before the movie begins

analyzing the use of lighting and camera angles to portray emotion

the bustle of a set during filming

wanting to create media that people can relate to

working closely of actors and screenwriters

feeling at home surrounded by cameras and microphones

the release of breath after the movie ends and the credits slowly start to roll

knowing all the words to cult classics

the smell of freshly popped popcorn 

learning the history of cinema, from silent films to modern CGI

enjoying both well-known classic films and the silly movies you adored as a kid

imagining how you would retell a story if you were the director

eagerly awaiting the release of a new movie 

walking through busy hollywood streets

supposedly “bad” movies that you love anyway

debating the presence of subtext 

envisioning scenes in your mind of the stories you want to tell

movie scores playing through your headphones 

developing new interpretations of films that have been analyzed a thousand times

studying the cultural context of famous movies

picking apart a script and the ways it could be brought alive on screen
