You'd all have been tired of seeing my second post that never arrived. Thanks for your tremendous response and feedback. But due to lack of time and this not being the best medium of teaching or expressing such a huge phenomenon as Cinema, I can hardly be quick in producing my subsequent posts and you learning from it effectively. Besides that, many have asked me to explain Script, Direction and Screenplay and the difference between two aspects or all of them. But, before that, there is a certain pre-requisite knowledge that is needed before learning those aspects of filmmaking.
"You know defining films is like defining life. The purpose is either too many or probably none". You know the fun in filmmaking can be experienced only when you don't know what filmmaking is. Similar to life, that you may aspire to learn what it is or may not even ask such a question all your life, but simply go on living.
I may have said in my last post that filmmaking is an art. Quite True. And also that it could be my current stand-point. Films are an art is true. What does art do? It expresses in many ways, abstract, realism and any other Genre. Similarly, Films can range from any genre from realism to fantasy. But, Do films have to be morally good? Of course not necessary. But films must not mislead. That's enough of a liberty to a creator and also a restriction. For example, A film says, a mere force called true love united a woman from The United States with a man taking bath beneath the Cooum river down south in Chennai. Well, That film may make a person taking bath beneath Cooum, in reality, to dream that such a thing happen to him.
But, If a film says, Practical events brought them together and if the events are narrated with a neat screenplay exploring the possibilities, this film may mislead little. This is one quality that a filmmaker should develop though not necessarily too rigidly. Because "films can shape a society and make life better".
Sorry for the delayed post. I'll keep on posting whenever I get time.
