Abstract
My project will study and apply the concepts and practices that evolved in the 1960s documentary film movement, Direct Cinema. I will begin my documentary work with 16mm film, a format that preceded the contemporary documentary and was integral to the pioneering filmmakers involved in Direct Cinema. Because of equipment restraints, I’ll use Super 8 film for productions that require more than one camera. Direct Cinema grew out of a desire for increased cinematic realism and was made possible by the development of film and sound equipment necessary to achieve that desire. Through the project, I hope to refine the function of a small documentary crew based on the fundamental ideals of the Direct Cinema movement.
