“By denying people's sense of visual beauty in painting and sculpture , melody in music , meter and rhyme in poetry , plot and narrative and character in fiction , the elite arts wrote off the vast majority of their audience . They purposely excluded people who approach art in part for pleasure and edification in favour of social one-upmanship and an ever-narrowing, in-crowd elite.” PeopleArtCharacterSocialPleasureFictionAudiencePaintingApproachMajorityCrowdsNarrativeVisualsPlotMelodyElitesRhymeFavourSculptureMeterExcludedElitismEdification Author:Steven Pinker
“A scary movie puts a lot of people, a mob, in one place. There are advantages to that because the panic runs through the audience. If it's a good movie, the fear jumps from one person to the next. You can find yourself screaming just because everybody around you is screaming. There's a real atmosphere of terror. It's also visual, which means that you can't look away from this thing - it's happening. You're in the dark. It's like a nightmare. It's like a dream. It's very, very visual. It works on all those levels.” PeopleIfsLooksMeanPersonsRealDreamRunningNextDarkLevelsAudienceHappeningsAdvantageTerrorScaryAtmosphereVisualsNightmareFinding YourselfPanicGood Movie Author:Stephen King
“I think the power of the short film is incredibly underrated. It is way easier to get someone to watch a 15-minute film then a full-length feature. In those 15 minutes you have the opportunity to express your voice as an artist and hopefully connect with your audience. If you are trying to be a first time feature director then a short film that demonstrates you have a grasp on the themes and concepts of the movie you want to direct is a no-brainer. Whether they are collaborators or potential investors, filmmaking is a visual art form so you obviously need visuals to show them!” IfsThinkingWayWantNeedsTryingFirstsArtShowsFilmFormArtistOpportunityVoiceWatchesAudienceMinutesEasierDirectorsConceptsFirst TimeDirectHopefullyFeaturesThemeVisualsLengthInvestorsFilmmakingVisual ArtCollaboratorsUnderratedShort FilmsNo Brainer Author:Nicholas Ozeki
“We are a band that stylistically crosses a lot of barriers and generational gaps. The heavier portion of the band, the modern music elements, the visual part of the band appeal to a younger audience. For an older audience, we have chops and great songs that are reminiscent of the things that were great about rock and roll when they enjoyed it. We're the kind of band that can cross those lines.” KindSongLinesAudienceModernRocksBandElementsCrossesEnjoyedAppealsVisualsBarriersGapsPortionsRock And RollModern Music Author:Andy Biersack
“There was not a lot of dialogue. The titles were just to keep you up. It's the visual stimulation that hits the audience. That's the reason for film. Otherwise, we might as well turn the light out and call it radio.” WellsReasonLightMightFilmTurnsAudienceRadioDialogueTitlesVisualsStimulation Author:Robert Altman
“And also the idea of not making it apparent that it's different from the rest of the film, even though there are visual differences, the audience is supposed to think that they are with him when he wakes up in the morning.” ThinkingIdeasDifferentFilmDifferencesMorningAudienceWake UpVisuals Author:Charlie Kaufman
