We live in a world that is full of moving images. Think of the number of movies you have seen this month. Think of the number of video recordings that are uploaded to YouTube every minute. In a world where screens are more and more prevalent, it's useful to know how to analyse the language of film.

This page gives you some of the basic terminology so that you have the tools to explore film more effectively.
