Ep 8: A Sense of Place in Film and TV
Description
What with it being the festive season, today’s episode is a family affair, as I chat to my brother Liam all about Sense of Place in Film and TV! Liam has always been into films, having a great appreciation for them as an art form, and he is now studying Film at University. Something we used to love doing at Christmas is sit down and watch a series we got on DVD with loads of festive snacks which was always fun!
In today’s episode we have a chat about the following:
• The origins of ‘A Sense of Place’ in film through travel logs.
• The importance slow cinema and animation play in creating a sense of place.
• How our identities are tied to place and the ways this is presented in film.
• How the environment of a film can suggest things about a character’s personality.
• The influence Film and TV has in making people want to visit a location, and the positives and negatives this creates for places through increased tourism.
