1. Film Speed- film can be altered via force development (pushing) and sometimes underdevelopment (pulling)

2. The Lens- The iris diaphragm is the primary means of exposure or for opening the iris to a selected F-stop. (to control depth of field, maximize lens sharpness. Also, filters can be used to alter exposure aswell.

3. Shutter Speed- Can adjust speed at which shutter is open, film is exposed.

4. Ambient Light- by using reflecter, light can be increased.

5. Variable Shutter- the shutter angle can be narrowed to change the shutter speed, which reduces exposure time, without changing the actually iris diaphragm and changing the depth of field. 

Depth of field - a term used to describe the section of your photo that your camera will record in focus. (Blue in the diagram)
Circle(s) of confusion –  the area that is out of focus before and after the hyperfocal distance.
Hyperfocal distance – this is the term used to describe the plane on which everything is in optimal focus.

The total amount of material shot on a production compared to the length of the final edited movie.

documentaries: 40:1

fiction: 10:1

animations: 1:1

A scene may be made up of a single shot or it may be devided up into several shots or camera angles. Various takes are filmed, each trying to get the right shot.

example: scene 8, take 14. 

focal length-

close up with different lenses:

wideangle- facial features distorted

medium- gives feeling of depth without looking unflattering

long focal length- compresses the features, flattening face
