Alex Buono's Visual Storytelling 2AAA

The inflation of images in the modern world has caused a recession of meaning - we've been overexposed to the point where a picture is no longer "worth 1,000 words". This has made visual subtext all the more important as filmmakers and artists look to add more depth to their creations. In this module Alex gives his three rules to visual subtext, explaining how to add subtext to your film to make it more universal through case studies including "The Silence of the Lambs", "Guardians of the Galaxy", "Gladiator" and more.
