We’ll revisit key concepts from our introduction to film discussion, focusing on elements like visual mediums (lighting, framing, color) and aural aspects (dialogue, sound). Additionally, we’ll explore Jan de Bont's contributions as a cinematographer and director, highlighting his work on films such as "Speed" and "The Haunting" (1999), including its reception and significance in film history. Remember, Homework 9 is due tomorrow.
