Animation Master Class: Visual Structure Bruce Blo
Saturday 10th of May
ANIMATION BRIDGE MASTERCLASSES
Visual Structure, Bruce Block – 10 May BAFTA London
‘Just as a writer is concerned with story structure or a musician with musical structure, a picture maker must be concerned with visual structure’.
This is a rare opportunity to learn from a highly experienced US based feature film producer, Mr Bruce A. Block.
Mr. Block has served as a producer, director or creative consultant on feature films, television shows, commercials, animated films, computer games and IMAX movies. His feature film credits include: “The Holiday”, "Something’s Gotta Give", "Stuart Little", "As Good As It Gets", "The Parent Trap" and "America's Sweethearts".
Visual structure is the only language available to picture makers yet it is often misused or simply ignored. The key to using visual structure is an understanding of the Basic Visual Components and how visual structure relates to narrative/story structure. It is through the control of these components that a picture maker stirs an audience’s emotions, creates new and unique visual styles and gives structure and unity to their work.
The principles discussed in the seminar can be used for live-action or animated theatrical motion pictures, television shows, commercials, or computer games. The seminar relates all of the visual concepts to practical production and bridges the gap between theory and practice.
