WEBVTT 1 00:00:28.299 --> 00:00:30.088 Hello, I am Seokwon Park 2 00:00:31.267 --> 00:00:37.760 Staging is a very important element in visual storytelling 3 00:00:37.760 --> 00:00:40.580 So, this time 4 00:00:40.580 --> 00:00:43.191 Let’s take a closer look at staging 5 00:00:43.687 --> 00:00:49.913 The most important element in movies or animations is 6 00:00:50.150 --> 00:00:53.324 The 'Frame' 7 00:00:53.680 --> 00:00:56.190 It's a box horizontally and vertically 8 00:00:56.190 --> 00:01:00.422 It may be a wide frame of 16:9 9 00:01:00.729 --> 00:01:05.002 Or a 4:3 frame 10 00:01:05.348 --> 00:01:13.156 Staging is making an object or character visible 11 00:01:14.067 --> 00:01:15.823 Within such a frame 12 00:01:16.199 --> 00:01:20.723 Let's do staging an apple 13 00:01:21.258 --> 00:01:24.272 Look at the apple on the left at the very beginning 14 00:01:24.569 --> 00:01:26.479 The apple is cut in half 15 00:01:27.648 --> 00:01:29.806 So, is this good staging? 16 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:31.570 Of course not 17 00:01:31.570 --> 00:01:33.433 Why is that so? 18 00:01:33.909 --> 00:01:38.100 Because it's hard to know whether that's an apple or not 19 00:01:38.457 --> 00:01:40.519 Now, let's look at second staging 20 00:01:41.628 --> 00:01:42.483 How is this? 21 00:01:42.800 --> 00:01:45.133 The apple fills the whole screen, right? 22 00:01:45.460 --> 00:01:47.634 So, is this good staging? 23 00:01:48.267 --> 00:01:49.199 Of course not 24 00:01:49.199 --> 00:01:52.252 Because it fills the screen too much 25 00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:55.984 It can be difficult to figure out what it is 26 00:01:56.757 --> 00:01:58.726 Then, how about the third staging? 27 00:01:59.806 --> 00:02:01.823 The apple is clearly visible 28 00:02:02.140 --> 00:02:04.833 And there is someone in front of the apple 29 00:02:05.437 --> 00:02:06.879 What can you imagine? 30 00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:10.994 Maybe that person will pick that apple 31 00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:15.341 Let me explain staging very simply 32 00:02:15.559 --> 00:02:18.120 For example, in painting, there is something called still life 33 00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:25.778 Let's take still life painting as an example 34 00:02:25.778 --> 00:02:30.479 Let's look at what objects should be staged 35 00:02:30.479 --> 00:02:34.588 And how they look good when painting a still life 36 00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:39.719 There is a bottle, two apples, and a plate 37 00:02:40.600 --> 00:02:42.174 How about this first staging? 38 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:43.866 How does it look? 39 00:02:44.490 --> 00:02:46.298 There's no touching 40 00:02:47.456 --> 00:02:50.381 That may be the case for this case 41 00:02:50.381 --> 00:02:54.320 This error can occur 42 00:02:54.320 --> 00:02:57.960 When none of the objects overlap each other 43 00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.720 It's difficult to know 44 00:03:00.720 --> 00:03:03.263 What's in front 45 00:03:03.927 --> 00:03:05.743 And what's in the background 46 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.501 Also, because everything is spaced apart 47 00:03:08.679 --> 00:03:10.892 The audience must 48 00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:14.562 Read everything individually 49 00:03:14.821 --> 00:03:19.414 To put it simply, it is visually very inconvenient staging 50 00:03:20.186 --> 00:03:22.443 Now, let's take a look at the second staging 51 00:03:22.908 --> 00:03:23.584 How is it? 52 00:03:23.980 --> 00:03:28.520 Everything is slightly stuck to the surface 53 00:03:28.520 --> 00:03:30.326 This is the staging to look like it 54 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:32.672 How does it feel? 55 00:03:32.880 --> 00:03:37.600 It seems as if an apple is stuck to a bottle 56 00:03:37.600 --> 00:03:41.393 And a plate is stuck to a bottle 57 00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.233 It creates such illusions and errors 58 00:03:44.470 --> 00:03:46.521 If it is vaguely attached 59 00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:48.900 It can give a strange feeling 60 00:03:50.019 --> 00:03:53.863 Then, how about this staging number 1? 61 00:03:55.091 --> 00:03:58.289 Everything is lined up in a straight line 62 00:03:59.289 --> 00:04:00.463 Very strange, right? 63 00:04:00.760 --> 00:04:02.244 It's not natural 64 00:04:02.700 --> 00:04:06.469 In the case of apples on a plate 65 00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.697 They are not even visible because the bottle covers them 66 00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.813 An apple in front of a bottle 67 00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:15.823 Covers the bottle 68 00:04:16.070 --> 00:04:22.054 So, it is difficult to determine whether the bottle is stuck to the bottom. 69 00:04:22.678 --> 00:04:25.692 Now, let's look at the second staging 70 00:04:25.959 --> 00:04:29.239 Moving an apple and a plate to the side 71 00:04:29.239 --> 00:04:31.344 It looks a little better 72 00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:33.982 You can clearly see the apple behind it 73 00:04:34.527 --> 00:04:39.524 However, since the apple in front is still lined up like this 74 00:04:39.840 --> 00:04:43.423 It seems as if the apple and the bottle have become one 75 00:04:43.730 --> 00:04:46.364 Which is unique and strange to see 76 00:04:46.552 --> 00:04:50.951 Moving the apple a little to the right, like no. 3 77 00:04:51.119 --> 00:04:54.415 It looks more natural and better 78 00:04:55.177 --> 00:04:57.640 Staging is actually not something 79 00:04:57.640 --> 00:04:59.970 You think is complicated and difficult 80 00:04:59.970 --> 00:05:02.854 Just like this, it just needs to be 81 00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:05.833 Comfortable and natural to look at 82 00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:08.679 Let’s take a look at staging number 2 83 00:05:08.679 --> 00:05:11.430 There is a large land 84 00:05:11.430 --> 00:05:15.771 With a house, tree, and a well 85 00:05:16.246 --> 00:05:19.624 Let's take a look at how staging is done 86 00:05:20.169 --> 00:05:21.716 What about case 1? 87 00:05:22.310 --> 00:05:24.321 Staging is done in a straight line 88 00:05:25.390 --> 00:05:27.020 But think about it 89 00:05:27.020 --> 00:05:32.679 Is there a place where house, tree, and well are 90 00:05:32.679 --> 00:05:36.598 Lined up in a straight line like that? 91 00:05:36.598 --> 00:05:38.274 It looks very unnatural 92 00:05:38.661 --> 00:05:43.116 Even if a person comes out of the house and tries to go to the shade of a tree 93 00:05:43.740 --> 00:05:48.077 Something is blocking the way, making it uncomfortable 94 00:05:48.730 --> 00:05:52.172 You'll need to take a slight detour to the well 95 00:05:52.737 --> 00:05:53.979 Then, look at the second picture 96 00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:59.011 If you look at the second one, the same distance is 97 00:05:59.180 --> 00:06:02.163 Created and maintained like this 98 00:06:02.490 --> 00:06:05.256 This also looks very awkward 99 00:06:05.830 --> 00:06:09.827 It's not ba but it looks awkward 100 00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:14.443 The route looks very vague 101 00:06:15.017 --> 00:06:16.224 Take a look at picture number 3 102 00:06:16.590 --> 00:06:21.082 This picture's staging is very natural 103 00:06:21.320 --> 00:06:25.042 They overlap slightly and slightly apart 104 00:06:25.359 --> 00:06:30.959 When a person passes through a certain space 105 00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:35.014 Certain movement lines can be easily drawn and seen 106 00:06:35.460 --> 00:06:37.160 This natural thing 107 00:06:37.160 --> 00:06:40.582 And has a well-drawn movement line that allows the character 108 00:06:40.730 --> 00:06:42.411 To move comfortably back and forth 109 00:06:42.648 --> 00:06:46.095 Good staging is something like them 110 00:06:46.947 --> 00:06:49.559 Here are three characters 111 00:06:49.807 --> 00:06:53.323 Let's look at staging three characters 112 00:06:53.779 --> 00:06:54.763 Look at picture number 1 113 00:06:54.981 --> 00:06:58.524 Three people are standing in a line 114 00:06:59.118 --> 00:07:00.207 How does it feel? 115 00:07:01.306 --> 00:07:04.492 Here's not the military, but looks unnatural 116 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.714 The men on either side probably 117 00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:11.592 Can't see each other very well 118 00:07:11.988 --> 00:07:14.895 Because the woman in the middle is covering them 119 00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:16.662 How about picture number 2? 120 00:07:17.860 --> 00:07:20.600 The angle is slightly changed 121 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:24.225 But they are standing on the same line 122 00:07:24.799 --> 00:07:26.424 It's very unnatural 123 00:07:27.236 --> 00:07:29.156 Take a look at picture number 3's staging 124 00:07:29.839 --> 00:07:31.592 It's very natural 125 00:07:31.730 --> 00:07:35.314 If three people gather in a certain place 126 00:07:35.809 --> 00:07:37.623 Wouldn't there be staging like that? 127 00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:42.582 With that kind of staging, it's easy for the woman to talk to two men 128 00:07:42.730 --> 00:07:45.454 And the men also talk to each other 129 00:07:45.860 --> 00:07:49.860 Make eye contact, and communicate so it looks very natural 130 00:07:50.959 --> 00:07:54.079 Look at this staging 131 00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:55.403 How does it feel? 132 00:07:56.819 --> 00:07:59.440 You can understand the situation very easily 133 00:07:59.609 --> 00:08:03.573 It appears to be two polic officers arresting 134 00:08:03.929 --> 00:08:06.252 A suspect and taking him away 135 00:08:06.559 --> 00:08:10.373 For example, if three friends were actually walking 136 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.774 They wouldn't walk closely together like that 137 00:08:14.200 --> 00:08:16.937 Seeing her walking so closely together 138 00:08:17.640 --> 00:08:20.604 Looks like she is a suspect 139 00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:24.000 Like this, with the staging and things like that 140 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.706 We need to do staging for audiences to read the message easily 141 00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:31.736 Here, a character is at home 142 00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:35.444 In front of a mirror and wardrobe 143 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:37.960 So, how should we do staging? 144 00:08:38.188 --> 00:08:39.321 How about picture number 1? 145 00:08:40.311 --> 00:08:42.092 Staging itself is no problem 146 00:08:42.468 --> 00:08:45.561 But what is the pose like? 147 00:08:45.561 --> 00:08:48.006 The way the character is standing is a bit awkward 148 00:08:48.659 --> 00:08:52.430 If you look at picture number 2, how about putting the arm on the closet 149 00:08:52.430 --> 00:08:53.935 Like that? 150 00:08:54.400 --> 00:08:57.155 The pose is a bit more natural 151 00:08:57.929 --> 00:09:00.785 Then, take a look at picture number 3, 4, and 5 152 00:09:01.429 --> 00:09:03.472 In front of the closet and mirror 153 00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:06.775 The character is wearing a tie and clothes 154 00:09:07.320 --> 00:09:10.733 How do you see the staging in picture number 3, 4, and 5? 155 00:09:11.129 --> 00:09:13.491 Picture number 3 is, in a way, a profile 156 00:09:13.630 --> 00:09:16.897 Picture number 4 is also a profile, right? 157 00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:21.152 From our perspective as an audience, we are shown a side view 158 00:09:21.549 --> 00:09:23.199 But take a look at picture number 5 159 00:09:23.199 --> 00:09:23.876 It's fun 160 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.599 Where is the man's body looking at? 161 00:09:27.599 --> 00:09:29.832 It's toward us, right? 162 00:09:30.089 --> 00:09:32.242 But where's the face looking at? 163 00:09:32.410 --> 00:09:33.822 It's looking in the mirror 164 00:09:34.089 --> 00:09:36.792 Strictly speaking, staging of picture number 5 is 165 00:09:36.970 --> 00:09:39.443 The preferred staging in movies 166 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:44.914 First, considering the audience, the upper body and body are 167 00:09:45.250 --> 00:09:47.899 Turned towards the audience 168 00:09:47.899 --> 00:09:50.223 That is, towards the camera, to be more visible 169 00:09:50.490 --> 00:09:54.162 That's cinematic staging 170 00:09:54.736 --> 00:09:55.910 But what about the face? 171 00:09:55.910 --> 00:10:01.642 Of course, the character must look in the mirror to put on a tie or adjust the clothes 172 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:03.470 So, what's the character's gaze like? 173 00:10:03.470 --> 00:10:05.519 It should be, of course, looking in the mirror 174 00:10:06.019 --> 00:10:09.712 Staging Element 175 00:10:10.296 --> 00:10:15.449 There are several factors in staging 176 00:10:15.449 --> 00:10:17.772 We will learn from what perspective 177 00:10:17.980 --> 00:10:22.654 And what kind of element staging is created 178 00:10:23.070 --> 00:10:30.090 First, there are emphasis, balance, rhythm, and silhouette 179 00:10:30.209 --> 00:10:31.854 Let's look at them one by one 180 00:10:32.626 --> 00:10:33.653 Take a look 181 00:10:34.723 --> 00:10:35.620 It's emphasis 182 00:10:35.620 --> 00:10:38.374 What does this picture emphasize? 183 00:10:39.068 --> 00:10:41.211 Look at the visual element 184 00:10:41.211 --> 00:10:44.076 Where do you think this picture is telling you to look? 185 00:10:45.155 --> 00:10:48.263 All the sticks in the middle are 186 00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:52.071 Focused on one place, right? 187 00:10:53.121 --> 00:10:57.090 There are four little boxes 188 00:10:58.180 --> 00:11:01.042 Right there 189 00:11:01.250 --> 00:11:04.373 To highlight that point 190 00:11:04.769 --> 00:11:07.402 In other words, what is also important in staging is 191 00:11:07.581 --> 00:11:11.182 To make everything look natural 192 00:11:11.380 --> 00:11:15.152 Clearly determine where the audience's gaze should be directed 193 00:11:15.331 --> 00:11:19.422 And set it up well 194 00:11:19.669 --> 00:11:25.584 Because in the case of movies, as I said before 195 00:11:26.188 --> 00:11:31.112 Each shot is usually cut in a very short time, on average 2 or 3 seconds 196 00:11:31.250 --> 00:11:33.613 In that cut 197 00:11:33.940 --> 00:11:38.066 There is not enough time for the audience to read 198 00:11:38.799 --> 00:11:41.981 Understand, and view everything on the screen 199 00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:47.591 Therefore, there is a certain point that the audience 200 00:11:47.799 --> 00:11:53.567 Should pay most attention to when watching a certain movie scene 201 00:11:54.359 --> 00:11:58.213 When directing a movie, you must emphasize that 202 00:11:58.470 --> 00:12:02.464 And draw the eye straight to that point 203 00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:06.508 That's an important element of emphasis 204 00:12:07.181 --> 00:12:08.876 How about in here? 205 00:12:09.529 --> 00:12:14.921 Everyone is holding a service at the church 206 00:12:14.921 --> 00:12:17.285 Who catches your eye? 207 00:12:17.869 --> 00:12:22.350 Church members attending a general worship service? 208 00:12:22.350 --> 00:12:26.320 Or the pastor delivering a message? 209 00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:29.239 Or a man standing at the door 210 00:12:29.239 --> 00:12:31.455 Coming in and opening the door? 211 00:12:31.910 --> 00:12:36.372 Of course, since all church members are grouped 212 00:12:36.610 --> 00:12:40.960 It is difficult for the audience to recognize each individually 213 00:12:40.960 --> 00:12:45.564 The crowd is just perceived as a crowd 214 00:12:46.128 --> 00:12:51.409 And because the pastor is standing compared to the congregation 215 00:12:51.409 --> 00:12:55.723 He is more visible, but we cannot see his face 216 00:12:56.079 --> 00:12:57.280 We're looking at the back 217 00:12:57.389 --> 00:13:03.760 It also overlaps with the church members in staging like this 218 00:13:03.760 --> 00:13:07.164 So, he doesn't stand out as much 219 00:13:07.411 --> 00:13:10.622 But what about the person standing at the door? 220 00:13:10.929 --> 00:13:14.568 There is a box-shaped door 221 00:13:14.568 --> 00:13:16.052 And he's inside 222 00:13:16.359 --> 00:13:21.544 The silhouette is visible with a bright background behind 223 00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:24.792 So when the audience sees that scene 224 00:13:25.079 --> 00:13:27.731 The first thing their eyes will look at 225 00:13:27.810 --> 00:13:30.165 Will be the person in front of that door 226 00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:35.485 Who do you see first in this scene? 227 00:13:35.999 --> 00:13:38.140 There are so many people standing 228 00:13:39.180 --> 00:13:42.970 Where is everyone's eye directed? 229 00:13:42.970 --> 00:13:47.639 All eyes will be on that woman who appears to be dancing 230 00:13:47.639 --> 00:13:50.724 As she comes down the stairs 231 00:13:51.050 --> 00:13:51.776 Why? 232 00:13:52.410 --> 00:13:57.331 Because everyone is looking at that woman 233 00:13:57.529 --> 00:14:02.488 And also because she's close to the middle of the screen 234 00:14:03.290 --> 00:14:05.475 This is a scene from a movie 235 00:14:06.831 --> 00:14:09.159 So many people are overlapped 236 00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.202 But who catches your eye the most? 237 00:14:13.351 --> 00:14:19.175 First, the people in the background are so close together that they are just a crowd 238 00:14:19.620 --> 00:14:23.344 The crowd is not visible one by one like this 239 00:14:23.918 --> 00:14:27.749 There are three people in the foreground 240 00:14:27.749 --> 00:14:31.961 Which of the three people will be the most visible? 241 00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.124 The two people on the far right 242 00:14:35.520 --> 00:14:38.743 We can't see their faces right now 243 00:14:39.119 --> 00:14:43.321 But what about the person standing third from the right? 244 00:14:44.429 --> 00:14:47.840 He's facing the opposite direction from the two people in front 245 00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:51.119 And he's facing the screen 246 00:14:51.119 --> 00:14:53.943 So we can see the face 247 00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:59.696 That's why that man catches our eyes 248 00:15:00.953 --> 00:15:04.590 What do you see here? 249 00:15:04.590 --> 00:15:06.921 What do you see first? 250 00:15:08.950 --> 00:15:12.719 It's probably a couple 251 00:15:12.719 --> 00:15:17.901 And the first thing you'll see in focus is the couple hugging 252 00:15:17.901 --> 00:15:18.855 Why? 253 00:15:19.331 --> 00:15:25.123 Everyone around them is looking at the couple 254 00:15:25.371 --> 00:15:27.869 And everyone is surrounding them 255 00:15:27.869 --> 00:15:30.951 That's why all eyes can't help but 256 00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:36.151 Focus on the couple's hug 257 00:15:37.319 --> 00:15:39.640 There are three characters here 258 00:15:39.640 --> 00:15:42.935 Who catches your eye first? 259 00:15:44.440 --> 00:15:47.561 If you look at it, the police and that store owner 260 00:15:47.789 --> 00:15:52.100 Who are they looking at? 261 00:15:52.229 --> 00:15:53.944 They are looking at the child 262 00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.486 So that child catches our eyes first 263 00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:01.081 And if you look closely 264 00:16:01.249 --> 00:16:07.144 The police officer is slightly blended with the black background behind 265 00:16:07.569 --> 00:16:10.119 So things like silhouettes are 266 00:16:10.119 --> 00:16:13.880 Slightly blended with the background 267 00:16:13.880 --> 00:16:15.310 So it doesn't stand out 268 00:16:15.310 --> 00:16:20.252 But when you look at that child, you can clearly see 269 00:16:20.757 --> 00:16:24.896 The shape of the face with the bright background behind 270 00:16:25.757 --> 00:16:28.412 Then, let's take a look at the balance 271 00:16:28.887 --> 00:16:30.679 What is balance? 272 00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:33.074 Balance is symmetry 273 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:34.919 Symmetry means that 274 00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:38.359 There is weight in both 275 00:16:38.359 --> 00:16:39.993 Visual and visual elements 276 00:16:40.280 --> 00:16:46.880 What if the weight is balanced between the left and the right sides? 277 00:16:46.880 --> 00:16:49.443 It's pretty and nice 278 00:16:49.928 --> 00:16:54.316 However, a symmetric balance with the same left and right sides is 279 00:16:54.980 --> 00:16:57.283 A rare case actually 280 00:16:57.679 --> 00:17:01.356 So, the most used balance generally is 281 00:17:01.980 --> 00:17:03.649 An asymmetric balance 282 00:17:03.649 --> 00:17:05.392 The asymmetric balance 283 00:17:05.907 --> 00:17:08.349 So, what if we tried to get the center weight 284 00:17:08.349 --> 00:17:11.710 When we saw this a little while ago? 285 00:17:11.710 --> 00:17:18.213 The axis of the central tripod below must be shifted toward the heavier side 286 00:17:18.471 --> 00:17:21.702 To ensure the left and right balance 287 00:17:22.138 --> 00:17:26.909 In fact, asymmetric is used a lot in movies 288 00:17:27.108 --> 00:17:28.066 Take a look 289 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:32.160 Who on the left does your eye go to first? 290 00:17:32.160 --> 00:17:36.439 Of course, the emphasis is on that female character 291 00:17:36.439 --> 00:17:41.885 Everyone is surrounding that female character 292 00:17:42.370 --> 00:17:46.400 It's probably like a jury meeting 293 00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:53.280 The jury system basically requires everyone 294 00:17:53.280 --> 00:17:55.893 To come to the same conclusion 295 00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:59.862 However, in my opinion, it seems like a female character is 296 00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:04.131 Giving opposing opinion compared to the majority 297 00:18:04.329 --> 00:18:07.550 So, she is getting persuaded 298 00:18:07.550 --> 00:18:10.953 So, that female character catches eye 299 00:18:11.606 --> 00:18:15.208 And if you look at the group gathered around that female character 300 00:18:15.208 --> 00:18:19.920 As one mass 301 00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:22.395 There is a very large mass on the left 302 00:18:23.207 --> 00:18:27.505 And one person on the right is sleeping, looking tired 303 00:18:28.130 --> 00:18:34.047 This is a screen composition with an asymmetric balance 304 00:18:34.681 --> 00:18:35.873 This is also the same 305 00:18:36.437 --> 00:18:41.036 On the right, a group of two adults 306 00:18:41.749 --> 00:18:44.533 Holds some visual weight 307 00:18:44.929 --> 00:18:49.524 A girl is sitting across from them 308 00:18:49.801 --> 00:18:54.676 This is also a case that is balanced by left and right asymmetric 309 00:18:55.547 --> 00:18:57.869 Next is rhythm 310 00:18:57.869 --> 00:18:59.374 What rhythm is 311 00:18:59.790 --> 00:19:03.095 Any visual element has a certain weight 312 00:19:03.510 --> 00:19:05.380 As I mentioned before 313 00:19:05.479 --> 00:19:06.860 There is a mass 314 00:19:06.860 --> 00:19:08.872 Some are big, some are small 315 00:19:08.951 --> 00:19:10.370 Some are emphasized 316 00:19:10.370 --> 00:19:13.174 Some are less emphasized 317 00:19:13.877 --> 00:19:15.233 What rhythm means is that 318 00:19:15.470 --> 00:19:19.565 It is very good when arranged interestingly 319 00:19:20.159 --> 00:19:23.920 Conversely, if everything is arranged 320 00:19:23.920 --> 00:19:27.692 The same way with the same weight, it's boring 321 00:19:27.692 --> 00:19:30.241 The one on the left right now is boring 322 00:19:30.409 --> 00:19:34.183 Because the rhythm is the same 323 00:19:34.500 --> 00:19:38.680 On the other hand, on the right, some things are small 324 00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.964 And some things are emphasized and have a rhythm 325 00:19:42.707 --> 00:19:43.937 So, for example 326 00:19:44.669 --> 00:19:48.062 Think about staging a tree 327 00:19:48.289 --> 00:19:51.990 And if you think about creating a rhythm 328 00:19:51.990 --> 00:19:55.963 There is no element of rhythm at all in the first case 329 00:19:56.260 --> 00:20:00.610 Identical trees appear equally spaced and sized 330 00:20:00.610 --> 00:20:03.324 It can be seen as very boring staging 331 00:20:03.888 --> 00:20:05.234 How about the second picture? 332 00:20:05.630 --> 00:20:09.011 Some are emphasized, and it's a bit forward 333 00:20:09.239 --> 00:20:12.670 What goes into the background is what gets less emphasis 334 00:20:13.590 --> 00:20:15.956 In the second picture, some rhythm was expressed 335 00:20:16.659 --> 00:20:18.170 The same goes for picture number 3 336 00:20:18.170 --> 00:20:19.673 Also the picture number 4 337 00:20:20.327 --> 00:20:23.223 The emphasis on rhythm is not that something is good or bad 338 00:20:23.916 --> 00:20:29.384 But that the rhythm can be created acording to a certain movie's 339 00:20:30.097 --> 00:20:32.964 Storytelling, tone atmosphere, and purpose 340 00:20:33.231 --> 00:20:36.680 Here, too, people are lining up 341 00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:40.943 And voting for an election 342 00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:43.421 Look at the people standing here, too 343 00:20:43.421 --> 00:20:46.950 Some places are crowded 344 00:20:46.950 --> 00:20:49.193 Others are alone 345 00:20:49.738 --> 00:20:51.406 And there's a rhythm 346 00:20:52.317 --> 00:20:54.874 Next, let's look at the silhouette 347 00:20:55.577 --> 00:20:57.520 What is a silhouette? 348 00:20:57.520 --> 00:21:02.164 Silhouette is an outline shape 349 00:21:02.451 --> 00:21:04.174 If there's a character 350 00:21:04.510 --> 00:21:08.239 And you paint it in black 351 00:21:08.239 --> 00:21:13.381 If you only take the outline of that character, it is called a silhouette 352 00:21:13.381 --> 00:21:14.980 Let's take a look at the bottle 353 00:21:16.416 --> 00:21:17.271 There's a bottle 354 00:21:17.568 --> 00:21:23.410 Let's rotate this bottle 360 degrees 355 00:21:23.410 --> 00:21:24.636 What do you think of this silhouette? 356 00:21:25.201 --> 00:21:26.249 It's the same 357 00:21:27.140 --> 00:21:32.735 In the case of bottles, the silhouette is the same no matter where you look 358 00:21:33.270 --> 00:21:34.949 But what about a person? 359 00:21:35.711 --> 00:21:40.542 When looking from the front, from the side 360 00:21:40.740 --> 00:21:44.814 Or the middle between the front and side 361 00:21:45.022 --> 00:21:48.330 A person's silhouette feels different 362 00:21:48.489 --> 00:21:50.183 The silhouettes are different 363 00:21:50.441 --> 00:21:52.429 Even if you do the same movement 364 00:21:52.429 --> 00:21:55.653 The silhouette differs depending on the angle you look at 365 00:21:56.168 --> 00:21:58.423 So, why is silhouette important? 366 00:21:58.691 --> 00:22:01.002 As I said 367 00:22:01.269 --> 00:22:05.770 Movie shots are generally 368 00:22:05.770 --> 00:22:09.520 2 or 3 seconds, and it is shown as one shot 369 00:22:09.520 --> 00:22:11.134 And then moves on to the next shot 370 00:22:11.540 --> 00:22:15.185 Therefore, it is necesasary to convey 371 00:22:15.541 --> 00:22:20.640 The character's pose stagic, etc. to the audience 372 00:22:20.640 --> 00:22:23.697 In such a short period 373 00:22:24.321 --> 00:22:25.719 The most important thing 374 00:22:25.719 --> 00:22:28.814 In conveying that message is the silhouette 375 00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:34.090 Silhouette plays a huge role in reading 376 00:22:34.090 --> 00:22:35.506 Any visual storytelling 377 00:22:36.130 --> 00:22:40.592 In other words, when doing pose or staging 378 00:22:40.592 --> 00:22:45.004 You can look at thet silhouette if ou want to judge whether it is good or bad 379 00:22:45.370 --> 00:22:47.120 By looking at the silhouette 380 00:22:47.120 --> 00:22:50.024 You can tell whether it is good or bad by looking at the silhouette 381 00:22:50.341 --> 00:22:52.880 One is shown in the profile to the side 382 00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:54.383 And the other in the front 383 00:22:55.432 --> 00:22:59.762 So, when you look at the two people on the bottom right 384 00:22:59.841 --> 00:23:02.247 Which silhouette looks better? 385 00:23:04.524 --> 00:23:06.988 In the case of the person shown in the profile 386 00:23:07.671 --> 00:23:11.312 The other side, the left arm, is not visible 387 00:23:11.490 --> 00:23:14.533 So, I can't tell what action the left arm is doing 388 00:23:14.731 --> 00:23:16.209 They even seem to be 389 00:23:16.209 --> 00:23:18.953 In the same pose 390 00:23:19.309 --> 00:23:25.505 However, if you look at the profile, you can't tell what the movement is because 391 00:23:26.356 --> 00:23:28.370 The silhouette of the left arm is not visible 392 00:23:28.370 --> 00:23:29.989 But look at the picture on the right 393 00:23:30.841 --> 00:23:34.048 You can see that what pose he's doing 394 00:23:34.691 --> 00:23:37.770 In movie number 1 and 2 395 00:23:37.770 --> 00:23:42.915 When looking at action, staging, or acting 396 00:23:43.370 --> 00:23:48.125 The audience can easily and quickly recognize 397 00:23:48.561 --> 00:23:53.635 The clear action, staging, and acting of silhouette number 2 398 00:23:54.407 --> 00:23:55.652 This is also the same 399 00:23:55.900 --> 00:23:59.812 Which staging looks better between picture number 1 and 2? 400 00:24:00.198 --> 00:24:02.302 What about picture number 2? 401 00:24:02.490 --> 00:24:05.880 You wouldn't know it by looking at the silhouette 402 00:24:05.880 --> 00:24:08.090 You can't see the person's face 403 00:24:08.159 --> 00:24:12.239 And its not clear what the arm pose is 404 00:24:13.169 --> 00:24:14.609 Picture number 1 is clear 405 00:24:15.431 --> 00:24:19.956 Negative space and positive space are seen clearly 406 00:24:21.441 --> 00:24:27.233 This is a scene where a cowboy falls while riding a horse 407 00:24:27.679 --> 00:24:29.590 Let's take a look at the silhouette 408 00:24:29.590 --> 00:24:31.551 Looking at silhouettes 1 and 2 409 00:24:31.650 --> 00:24:34.520 Which pose look clearer? 410 00:24:34.688 --> 00:24:40.730 If you look at picture number 2, the cowboy and horse silhouettes overlap so completely 411 00:24:41.701 --> 00:24:44.852 That you might not even know there are people 412 00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:47.723 It just doesn't seem that clear 413 00:24:48.089 --> 00:24:49.463 However, in picture number 1 414 00:24:50.611 --> 00:24:55.713 There is a negative space between the cowboy and the horse 415 00:24:55.931 --> 00:24:57.237 And it is visible 416 00:24:58.451 --> 00:25:03.144 Let's look at another staging development process 417 00:25:03.510 --> 00:25:06.801 What kind of situation does this symbolize? 418 00:25:07.326 --> 00:25:12.634 The father has passed away, and it seems like he has a lot of children 419 00:25:12.960 --> 00:25:16.474 He has six sons 420 00:25:16.900 --> 00:25:20.165 I think it express the feeling of 421 00:25:20.590 --> 00:25:23.917 Waiting for the father's death 422 00:25:24.590 --> 00:25:28.182 While looking forward to father's legacy 423 00:25:28.894 --> 00:25:32.640 Let's take a brief look at the process 424 00:25:32.640 --> 00:25:35.902 To see what staging can be done 425 00:25:36.516 --> 00:25:38.711 It is done staging in a row 426 00:25:39.741 --> 00:25:43.564 As you probably know 427 00:25:44.039 --> 00:25:47.313 If you have heard the story of good staging mentioned above 428 00:25:47.531 --> 00:25:50.239 Staging that is lined up like this is 429 00:25:50.239 --> 00:25:52.621 Very bad staging 430 00:25:52.621 --> 00:25:56.480 And the expressions on sons' faces 431 00:25:56.480 --> 00:25:58.611 Can't be read properly 432 00:25:58.611 --> 00:26:03.024 They all have similar poses, so it's not even fun 433 00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:07.490 Also, I can't quite read father, whether he's lying down 434 00:26:07.490 --> 00:26:11.194 Or what kind of situation he's in 435 00:26:11.709 --> 00:26:13.916 Let's take a look at the following 436 00:26:14.798 --> 00:26:16.392 How is this staging? 437 00:26:16.719 --> 00:26:19.642 It's better than previous staging 438 00:26:19.760 --> 00:26:22.714 The emphasis is clearly well done 439 00:26:23.249 --> 00:26:24.703 Where is the emphasis? 440 00:26:25.079 --> 00:26:29.275 It is done on the father who passed away 441 00:26:29.701 --> 00:26:32.711 How about polls on the bed? 442 00:26:32.711 --> 00:26:34.323 It is toward the father 443 00:26:34.689 --> 00:26:42.588 What about a monkey or some other animal? 444 00:26:43.400 --> 00:26:45.142 It's looking at the father 445 00:26:45.479 --> 00:26:49.040 The glass bottle underneath 446 00:26:49.040 --> 00:26:51.421 Also faces the father 447 00:26:51.421 --> 00:26:53.442 What about sons? 448 00:26:53.878 --> 00:26:56.917 They also look at the father 449 00:26:57.888 --> 00:27:00.630 It's better than before 450 00:27:00.630 --> 00:27:03.905 However, the staging of these sons 451 00:27:04.945 --> 00:27:08.040 Poses and other things are all very similar 452 00:27:08.040 --> 00:27:10.703 No variety or fun at all 453 00:27:10.901 --> 00:27:14.733 In that aspect, I think it needs revision and development 454 00:27:14.733 --> 00:27:16.850 It has developed a lot 455 00:27:17.890 --> 00:27:22.111 First, there is a bed, the sons are 456 00:27:22.280 --> 00:27:25.733 In various poses, both in 457 00:27:26.040 --> 00:27:30.552 The far background and foreground 458 00:27:30.750 --> 00:27:34.413 Some are grouped, and some are separate 459 00:27:34.561 --> 00:27:37.441 The staging seems to have been 460 00:27:37.441 --> 00:27:40.193 Completed much better than before 461 00:27:41.530 --> 00:27:47.160 So, in the last illustration 462 00:27:47.160 --> 00:27:50.248 The picture finished with staging is like this 463 00:27:51.901 --> 00:27:55.149 Like this, staging 464 00:27:55.149 --> 00:27:59.130 Does not simply refer to a certain position but also 465 00:27:59.130 --> 00:28:01.350 To a variety of things 466 00:28:01.350 --> 00:28:04.062 Including thet pose of a certain character 467 00:28:04.319 --> 00:28:08.173 I also think props in the background 468 00:28:08.738 --> 00:28:12.274 Should be arranged well 469 00:28:12.798 --> 00:28:16.149 To suit the storytelling 470 00:28:17.130 --> 00:28:20.901 I will finish the lecture with this 471 00:28:20.901 --> 00:28:21.891 Thank you for your effort 472 00:28:23.444 --> 00:28:26.894 1. Staging concept What is Staging? Placing an object or character within a frame 473 00:28:26.894 --> 00:28:30.365 Good staging It must be easy to see and natural Character movements must be well drawn The message must be easily understandable 474 00:28:30.365 --> 00:28:33.156 2. Staging element Emphasis Must clearly determine where the gaze should be directed Balance There's also a sense of weight in the visual elements Asymmetrical balance is often used in movies 475 00:28:33.156 --> 00:28:35.997 Rhythm Arrange visual elements in a fun way The rhythm is created according to the tone, atmosphere, and purpose of the film 476 00:28:35.997 --> 00:28:38.245 Silhouette A clear silhouette allows the audience to quickly and easily perceive the situation It serves as a basis for judging whether a pose is good or bad
