Cinematography?
Yes, it can be a hard field to crack....especially at high levels like shooting studio features. It is competitive and there are many talented cameramen working there already. It is also quite a small field. Indeed the American Society of Cinematographers membership is only a few hundred people. Cinematography is part art, part technical expertise, part management. It is a vital position on a movie set; it is one that is respected; and is one that studios will have a hand in selecting due to the power that the position exerts over things like money and time usage. I believe that you need some talent to do it. Understanding composition, story telling, and artful lighting cannot be learned completely. Some of that comes from within. That said, there is a lot to learn and and it can be learned. Indeed, a successful cinematographer will need to know (often from experience and experimentation) ways to shoot within the budget and time alloted. Many people can light to make something look great perhaps, but doing it fast, under duress, and communicating it to a crew in a proper way and doing that 14 hours everyday is another thing entirely. Film schools can be valuable but when you leave you'll be at the bottom with others who didn't go. The best thing about school is learning to experiment and meeting fellow students and developing relationship. They might hire you later on and vice-versa. Networking is key in the movie business. It is critical to success. How do you learn to shoot? You shoot. And shoot. And shoot. Reviewing well photographed movies is very instructive and helps as well. Watch with the sound off. Try to figure out how they lit it, why they made the choices. It doesn't happen overnight. Great cameraman are often older, have years of experience, and are still learning (it's true, ask them). Starting out can be tough. Everybody makes there own way and there is no one road. Don't expect "placement" from a school or something. It's not a career like business, medicine, or something. Remember the Five C's of Cinematography (to make it) 1. Cash 2. Connections 3. California Residency 4. Courage 5. Creativity Sadly, probably in that order.....

Thin-layer cinematography question...?
Spot A and spot B were traveling for the same amount of time. However spot B went farther in that amount of time compared with part A. So this means that spot B travels faster in this solvent than spot A so the distances will increase. Also you are right that the intermolecular forces will not change and the compound-solvent interactions stay the same but it's just that each compound is inherently different so they behave differently on the TLC plate. If that's not clear, let's use an example. Let's say that you and your friend were running but you were twice as fast as your friend. So you can run at 10 miles per hour and your friend can run 5 miles per hour. After one hour, you ran ten miles and your friend ran 5 so the difference is 5. After two hours you ran 20 and your friend ran 10 so the difference is 10. The distance between you is ever increasing. I hope this helps.
What is cinematography?
thas exactly the best simple definition one could give "what tthe camera shows" a cinematographer is : a person who has expertise in the art of capturing images either electronically or on film through the use of visual recording devices. they are responsible for framing the entire shot and all of it parts ie lighting, color, angle, aspect
What is continuity and cutting in cinematography?
I feel like this is more of an editing question than a cinematography question, but it can work for both. Continuity is simply making sure that everything stays in the right order as stated in the script while you’re shooting.An example of bad continuity would be if a character sits down on a couch next to a pillow, but in the next shot the pillow is gone. While small, continuity errors can take the audience out of the story and remind them that they are watching a movie. Most filmmakers don’t want this.When cutting a film in editing, you should make sure that everything in all the shots stay the same. This includes, light, colors, clothes, props, anything that could change.Everything needs to be the same across the entire scene, unless it is physically altered by the talent.
Is cinematography a movie?
Cinematography is the science or art of motion-picture photography by recording light or other electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means of an image sensor, or chemically by means of a light-sensitive material such as film stock.A movie is a motion-picture that is made through the practice of cinematography.
How important is cinematography?
You don't appear to know what cinematography actually means . . . or you have just worded the question wrong. Cinematography IS the art of creating a movie. Just as Photography IS the art of creating photograph. Without cinematography there would be no movies. If you mean instead what is the importance of art or skill in the craft of cinematography, then that is a different question entirely.
What are the best cinematography techniques used in a movie to capture a scene?
Two that come to mind are the dolly-zoom and a rotating room.Two very well known examples of the dolly-zoom are Vertigo (The stairs scene) and Jaws (close-up at the beach). In this technique the camera is pulled away on a dolly while the lenses zoom in. Changing the perspective but keeping the size of certain object the same, being disorienting.Two very well known examples of the rotating room are Inception (fight in the hallway) and 2001 (zero gravity). In this technique the camera is fixed to the floor of a rotating room. The actors can go around the wall and the ceiling, but with the fix camera it seems like they are defining gravity.
How is cinematography used within a scene?
Cinematography is the product of the vision of a director combined with the skills of the cinematographer and set designer, to evoke meaning through words, picture, and texture.Color schemes, use of contrast, and shooting angles to add or take away perceived strength in a character are but a few things we can evoke through the lens.Lighting, from flat to stylized, becomes the hallmark by which a film is judged. Lighting itself can have meaning and be nuanced like a performance.
