Chicago IB Film Tutoring FAQ
While most students would probably consider IB Film to be a fun subject, some may not be prepared for the challenge a film course poses. What is chiaroscuro lighting, for example? Who starred in the first motion picture with audio? These questions and possibly more will be posed to the beginning film student, who may struggle to remember all of these details.
Fortunately, there is a solution for this dilemma. A professional IB film tutor may be able to help a film student understand the process of filmmaking. IB Film tutoring can help with the following:
Understanding the various jobs on a film set
The history of film making
Who the key players are in today's filmmaking community
The technology behind modern films
Film language and terminology
Lighting theory
Editing
High School IB Film tutoring can help the film student understand concepts which could otherwise elude them, such as the fact that different types of lighting are used for different genres of film. Generally, flat lighting is used for comedies, while lighting with a lot of contrast(also known as chiaroscuro lighting) is used for dramas. This information helps inform the Director of Photography(or DP) and Gaffer as to what lights should or should not be used in a particular scene.
A tutor may be able to spark an interest in the subject with the student. A qualified IB Film tutor may choose to focus lessons on films that the student would be interested in studying, perhaps allowing the student to understand class discussions more clearly. With confidence generally comes motivation, so the student may begin participating more, which is important, as filmmaking is a collaborative art.
With enough IB Film tutoring, a student may even be motivated to learn how to direct a film, which can involve coaxing performances from actors as well as learning camera placement, along with how to ensure that all shots cut together seamlessly. Receiving the right guidance, a beginning filmmaker may even be able to get a job in the industry, and work with talented people every day.
