This Week In Film Theory: Sergei Eisenstein

March 20th, 2009 · 1 Comment

i’ve been taking an outstanding film theory class with phil rosen this semester. rosen, it tuns out, is kind of the reigning critical perspective on the authors we are reading: eisenstein, bazin, munsterberg, etc.

a couple of weeks ago, in an attempt to both exorcise my creative demons and begin assessing the necessary theory for a paper on sergei eisenstein’s film theory, i struck on the concept of a “this week in film theory.” as a weekly re-occurring series of animations on film theory, “this week in film theory” sounded like a great idea. the only problem was, it took three weeks to get this first week done.

so i would very much like to have further episodes, but i don’t know if i have enough time in the semester.

enjoy.
