MASTERCLASS: AVIJIT MUKUL KISHORE
Understanding the Aesthetic of Non-Fiction Cinematography
What is the basis of non-fiction cinematography? How has it evolved over the years? And how is it different from the way fiction is filmed?
Avijit Mukul Kishore’s interactive masterclass views cinematography for non-fiction films from a historical perspective and looks at how a variety of factors over the years have determined why these films look the way they do. Using examples from non-fiction films made in several genres, the session examines the technological, aesthetic, political and ethical considerations at play while constructing images, often breaking down the boundaries between fiction and non-fiction. A must for anyone interested in making non-fiction films or in cinematography in general.
