1) Thanks to those who pointed out that "filmed reality" was
misleading--what I intended (as someone said)--was "filmic reality."
2) So far the "reasons" have been philosophical (no surprise) and not
very much involved in craft beyond editing (e.g. little mention of
framing, focus, llighting, sound, etc.) I guessing students (at least)
will be "convinced" more by craft-production reasons than more abstract
explanations of differences between everyday and filmic reality.
3) Alexa wrote, "I think there is something temporally important about a
moment, no matter how small, of real time within a film, no matter how
that moment is dressedup or packaged." It seems to me this perhaps may
beg the question or issue I am trying to explore-- "real time within a
film", but that is "real" to whom? To those who enacted it? Those who
filmed it? Those who watch? I think I am trying to convince students
that filmic time is NOT real time. Alexa, do you disagree that
students--or we critics--need to believe this?
