Composition Reflection

After learning more about composition, I've come to appreciate how different shots in movies are put together to progress the story. Now when I look at different films and TV shows, I think about the crew's thought process when creating the scene. One example that I've seen recently is parts in the movie Scott Pilgrim Vs The World. Even with the somewhat simple looking window scene, it was meticulously planned out. Another example in the same movie would be when Scott is walking with Knives, the scene changes from inside to outside in one cut, making the transition seamless. Finally, I've started to notice how movies use different rules, such as the rule of thirds. Unless its for dramatic effect, a lot of movies rarely put a character in the center of the frame. I think that after learning more about composition, I've begun to notice more of what the director was thinking while creating the film.
