Cinemascapes 25 was a deep dive into the craft of visual storytelling, specifically how images, sequences, and perspectives construct meaning. Throughout the semester, we worked on basics of framing, composition, shot design, and visual rhythm, learning how to construct stories through the camera instead of dialogue alone. The studio was both experimental and precise. I learned the strength of subtle decisions in visual storytelling. This studio sharpened my visual sensibility and strengthened my ability to communicate emotion, mood, and narrative through the frame. It has been a significant step in my development as a filmmaker and also as a designer.
