Assessing Some Of The Best Movie Styles

By Rob Sutter


Even though movies oftentimes capture our attention and immerse us into their worlds, it's hard to deny that there are certain styles which can be distinguished from one another. It seems like there are certain features which help to differentiate them from each other and the idea of which style is best is up for debate. What if you're looking to become an aspiring filmmaker, specializing in one style over the others? I believe that the best art schools in California can prove useful in this regard.

Perhaps one of the more visually interesting styles that the best art campuses can bring to your attention is film noir. It's easy enough to say that the only requirement that film noir needs to have is if it black and white but there is far more to consider than this. Keep in mind that films of this nature are typically crime dramas; the films usually take place anywhere between the 1940's to the 50's. One of the better-known examples of this style is the 1946 film, "The Big Sleep."

This style didn't end after the 50's, though, or at least it didn't stay the same. There are more modern examples seen in the style of neo-noir, which takes film noir and implements new aspects as well as alterations in order to make them appear more current. I feel like neo-noir is especially interesting because how many people have actually seen a brand new movie in a style like this? There are a couple of key examples to consider but 2005's "Sin City" stands head and shoulders above the rest.

Silent films, in my opinion, are far more challenging because of the limitations that they have. Without the use of sound, actors and actresses have to be able to act in the physical sense, using their bodies and facial expressions in order for messages to be conveyed. This means that viewers have to stay focused on every last detail so that they do not miss anything. There are many traditional and modern examples to take into account, "Wings" and "The Artist" being just a couple.

With these styles in mind, hopefully you have a better idea of what you're getting into when it comes to the best art campuses one can imagine. You have to stick with a style and make sure that you learn as much as possible about it in the process. Are you going to be comfortable showing off a film to a number of people in a theater or auditorium? If this is the case, it probably goes to show that you have spent ample time picking up on many details along the way.
