Dallas Cinema Club: Film Literacy Night

Films go by fast. They wash over us like a dream, and by the time we start making sense of what we saw, the credits are rolling and the details are slipping away. In this workshop, we'll practice segmentation, a method for watching more closely. By breaking a film into small units, we slow it down, create more points of contact with the material, and log concrete facts about what's on screen. Those notes reveal how a film's ideas take shape, which makes talking about movies richer and a lot more fun. Come if you want to change the way you watch, or if you're looking for tools that will help you write about film!RSVP on Eventbrite!
