Through an experimental approach, this course examines the concept of filmed décor and explores various methods of designing, implementing, and realizing scenographic systems, simple or complex. A series of practical exercises ranging from fixed camera to moving camera, up to the integration of actors within the image will lead us to physically test various staging possibilities.
The décor will be considered as a distinct artistic form. We will reflect on its potential to become the central subject of a sequence and on the emotions it can evoke as a narrative and sensory trigger.
This course thus invites a dual reading: that of moving image and of filmed space, while confronting students with the practical challenges of production—feasibility, costs, work organization, and team coordination.
