    Hello everyone,

    I’m new to cinematography and I was wondering if someone could explain what film language is and how it relates to cinematography. I’ve heard the term thrown around a lot, but I’m not sure what it means. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks in advance!

    Film language is the way that filmmakers tell their ideas and emotions to the audience through the visuals, dialogue, and sound. It is the tool used to tell a story and convey a message on the screen.
