Todays post is from Howard Landau
"With the goal of getting feedback for a new lecture he recently put together for his Photography class, Charles give led us through a presentation called “Symbol & Meaning,” a look at how motion picture and television directors use these visual cues to lead and engage their audience. With stills from famous films and shows including “The Dear Hunter.” “Schindler’s List,” “House of Cards” and “True Detective,” to name a few, Charles demonstrated how strategically employed composition and color choices steer the viewer toward meanings and insights that may be unsaid in the script. He selected perfect examples to demonstrate his points and the group eagerly participated with questions and comments, adding dimension to the conversation. Charles is a thoughtful and articulate teacher. Any student would be fortunate to have him for their professor. Howard gave the group a report from his recent visit to the new San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SFMOMA) and their inaugural photography exhibition, “California & The West” with examples from many of the greats including, Adams, Cunningham, Weston, White, Ruscha and Sultan. A definite stop the next time you’re in City by the Bay."
