Beginning with the proposition that there exist uniquely cinematic elements of meaning and structure, Stefan Sharff clearly and systematically lays the foundation for "literacy" in cinema-a sensitivity to the aesthetic elements intrinsic only to film. Sharff presents the basic elements of structure, modes of expression, and rules which he argues create a specific "language" and "syntax" of cinema.
Stefan Sharff has produced and directed more than sixty films, including two feature-length works, and several series for public television. He has received numerous international awards for his work including the Grand Prix at Vienna. He is currently a professor of film in Columbia University's School of the Arts.
