Cinematography Game: Writing gag is a real good one.

In pantomime games, with hobbies, when there are no mollies, someone takes action to perform a silent scene, and others will start to guess. It's a great game, visually and perceptually boosting assuming and performing. I want to introduce a game similar to pantomime but more visual than it is. I have a new game to raise for fun and to enhance the storyteller's mood. The game is for those who love cinematography and cinema. One person starts to film some scenes from the outdoors or indoors. The show goes with the solo actor. Throughout Editing the settings, he finalizes the video and then requests another person to write a gag or some lines as an extensional fulfillment. Writing the lines for meaningful motion pictures has two pros: it helps the narrator –the cinematographer – to perform what she has already had in mind. Second is, it also helps the writer to relate and find meanings of those pictures. It is beneficial in terms of visual storytelling. It is the practice of cinematography.


Writing gag is like writing the scene before the shoot. First, the cinematographer depicts the bright image in a storyboard or somewhere else and then starts to shoot the rest of the photos. We already know a drama piece is as shocking and unpredictable as it must be. In this silent motion case, it is essential to recreate the fundamentals of sequential images. In addition, aesthetics is a new factor in the game score. Some people have the ability to storytelling by nature. They add gossip to make the storytelling more interesting. Some people are good at jokes. Some are great at guessing pantomime for a second or two. I found David Mamet's idea, who said that silent movies are understandable without gags but writing them would help.
