itensified

Our hollywood cinema is now fast, with dramatic action sequences, fast paced shots and sequels coming out faster and faster, with endless remakes which is used to create more and more money for the producers. Continuity is getting more intensified because everything s going faster from movies coming out to the shots in the movies, "Its hard to imagine a full length narrative movie with an asl of 1.5 seconds" cutting has become so fast that narrative movies have become almost. incomprehensible. Another way cinema has become more intensified is with more shot cutting, with cutting after every dialog ends it ads an added intensity as the audience is exposed to more shots and more action and more of a narrative structure, "in the 1930's to the 1960's most films had between 300-700 shots... most films now include over 1000 shots. Another way is that there are more extremes with the lenses with more extreme lenses there is more to show and more dramatic exposures, "Therefore filmmakers have used long lens for establishing shots deep for ground and background and grotesque close ups". With these more intensified aspects for film making we lose the full structure of a film we still have the story from start to finish but we have some much more added to how we tell the story not just the story itself.
