Why do we get excited when we think about going to the movies? Do you love a movie but when asked why, you can’t explain it? If you have not watched a lot of movies, then this free online Exploring Movie Construction and Production course will give you a solid foundation for better understanding the movies you watch. You will also learn how to critically analyse movies. 


The course begins by exploring the use of themes and genres in movie construction. Next, you will learn about creating narrative structure and characters. Lastly, you will also learn about directing, cinematography, editing and sound in movie production. These areas are covered in this specific order so you can see the formation of a movie from the theme, or purpose, through to its completion. 


This course will be ideal for anyone interested in learning about the fundamental basics of movie framework, construction, and production.
