Episode 5, The Queen’s Gambit

Game of Thrones is impossible to follow –unless you are plugged into to all it’s other media outlets. As such GOT is an excellent model for an L&D campaign,with a high-budget drama at its centre and cheapermedia being employed to discuss it.

Rear Window is a classic movie and a technical tour de force. But it’s not the kind of technique that draws attention to itself. In this episode I look at Hitchcock’s use of the Kuleshov effect and explain the stealthy power of fundamental film technique that anyone thinking of making a video drama should be aware of.
