Dogme 95
1995 is an significant year to me as I was born in that year well also Dogme 95 happened that year! Dogme 95 was an avant-garde filmmaking movement started in 1995 by Danish directors Thomas Vinterberg and Lars von Tirer. Created "Vow of Chastity" and "Dogme 95 manidesto"
There are number of rules that you need to follows if you want to create a film based off Domge 95.
1.The filming must be done on the spot on location.
2. The camera must be hand-held.
3.The sound in the film should not be produced apart from images..etc
4. The film should be in colour form and no special lighting.
5. No filters is allow.
6.The film should not contain addition superficial actions.
7.Genre movie are not allow.
8. Geographical and Temporal alienation is allow.
9. The final cut must be transfer to the Academy 35mm and not wide screen.
10. The director should not be credited.
The goal for Dogme is to purify filmmaking by not using expensive or spectacular effects and to focus on the actual story and the talent's performances.
One of my favourite film for it is "The idiots" by Lars Von Tirer himself. The movie is a comedy drama about a group of people gathering in Copenhagen suburb to break all limtations andd to bring out their "inner idiots". They do so by portaying themselves as development disable in the public.
