  4. The director i chose was Spike Lee. Lee's use of dialogue and body language displays the tension, but Lee's use of different camera techniques enhances the strain between characters as well. Lee also uses canted frames, dolly shots, tight close ups, high and low angles,parallelism, & source music.

  8. My famous filmmaker/director is Steven Spielberg. Steven Spielberg is the mastermind behind Jurassic Park, Jaws, and ET. Steven used a variety of angles such as underwater and above from the sky that many other directors hadn't yet used or thought of. Seven is arguably the best filmmaker of all time because of the legacy of his films and how he's impacted other filmmakers.

Like in the Star Wars (the original Trilogy) a Trilogy that was extremely well done with CGI for that time (70s and 80s). These movies of him don't look like typical movies of the 70s and 80s, with CGI that looks for todays standarts terrible, but instead, the effects can be today still be considered as very good.

  46. Spike Lee is a famous black director known for creating dozens of movies which won awards for his creative techniques. Lee using multiple techniques in one of his films "Do The Right Thing". In this film, he uses something as simple as a character's choice in a shirt to signify the racial difference. The white character who stepped on Buggin' Out's sneaker is wearing a a Larry Bird jersey, who was a well-known white basketball player at the time. Buggin Out's friend has on a Magic Johnson jersey. At the end of the scene, when the white character walks up to his door, the camera shoots him from a lower angle. This shot shows that he is "above" the situation and taking the higher road by walking away. While the camera shoots Buggin' Out and his entourage from a higher angle. These techniques don't just give Spike Lee's movies a picture but it forces his audience to think outside the box.
