Analogy (Campany)

The Analogy section of the CATTt is highly important. In fact, I would go so far as to say that if you had to skip every section of the CAT but one, that the Analogy section is the one that should be held on to. I say this because The Cinematic provides clear-cut examples that can directly directly (not theoretically or contrastingly) help us come up with a system, our a set of instructions.

What makes Cinematic so interesting is that it's not only Campany's view; instead, it is an anthology with many different types of analogies and examples to follow from multiple authors. It is helpful, too, that many of the authors of various chapters are themselves photographers or filmmakers. Their artistic focus (whether its a second or third or etc... focus along with their writing) allows us to get an example of HOW they did things, not only why. It is the how that we are most interested in because we are trying to create a how ourselves.


This is what we look to...

1. Still Movement
2. Reel Time
3. To Infinity
4. Photobombing
5. The Wind's Wind
