Dear Reader,
Welcome! You are entering a world of creativity, imagination, cinema arts and debate. This world has been created for you to study the arts of the cinema with me as we learn about the meaning of films, how they were created and why the were created. More importantly, we will discuss why films were created the way they were created and how do these films contribute to the history of film making.
I am writing to you from Cincinnati, Ohio. Thus the name, Cinema-"nati." A freshman at the University of Cincinnati, I am very interested in studying the art of film making and majoring in Electronic Media. I believe that films are used to create this whole new, creative, unique place where one's imagination can explode. Films can teach us new ideas, make us see the world we live in differently, make us laugh and make us cry. The amount of accomplishments and ideas one can achieve through film is so vast.
My two favorite genres are polar opposites. Slapstick comedy and drama films that are somewhat depressing. Slapstick comedy needs no explanation. It's funny. However, people often find it strange that I like depressing films. But those films will usually really make you feel what the characters feel, think what they think and understand what they understand. Those films are usually the most moving films and can make you really view them on a deeper level.
So let's go on that deep level. Let's experience the art of film making together. Feel free to converse and debate through commenting on various blogs. I look forward to writing to you, learning with you and hearing from you.
Happy blogging!
Your author,
Josh Sempsrott
