| Video Discription | More on The Godfather analysis ►► http://bit.ly/36lai3P The Godfather is an undisputed cinema classic...but why? What makes it so good? It's a story about the transformation of Michael Corleone from someone on the sidelines of the family business into a true leader. The Godfather is about POWER — who has it, who wants it, and what people are willing to do to get it. In this scene breakdown, watch how director Francis Ford Coppola takes a simple dispute and captures the transitions in power between Sonny (James Caan) and Tom (Robert Duvall), before Michael (Al Pacino) inserts himself and takes complete control. Using framing, composition, blocking and a slow, deliberate camera move, we "feel" these power shifts as much as we see them. The Godfather analysis in this video essay focuses on how director Francis Ford Coppola used blocking and staging to visually capture the power dynamics within the Corleone family. Specifically, how Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) takes his first steps towards inserting himself in the family business...and his first steps towards becoming The Godfather. With Don Corleone hospitalized, Sonny and Tom are at odds with whether revenge is the appropriate tactic. In this scene, Michael goes from a passive observer of the family’s business to an active participant. This power dynamic is clear from the dialogue in the script but what does Francis Ford Coppola do with the blocking and staging to emphasize these ideas? How does he use shot types and composition to communicate Michael’s evolution? That’s what this The Godfather analysis is all about. Francis Ford Coppola will go down as one of the greatest directors of all time. After a series of independent and underseen films, Coppola broke out in a big way with The Godfather. From there, it was a series of masterpieces like The Conversation, Apocalypse Now, and the completion of The Godfather trilogy. The Godfather cinematography is legendary, thanks to DP Gordon Willis (aka The Prince of Darkness) but his lighting is just the beginning. In this video essay on The Godfather analysis, you’ll see how power and control can exchange hands with simple techniques like blocking & staging. #filmmaking #filmmaker #thegodfather — Music by MusicBed ► http://bit.ly/2Fnz9Zq — SUBSCRIBE to StudioBinder’s YouTube channel! ►► http://bit.ly/2hksYO0 Looking for a project management platform for your filmmaking?
