When reading the part on "Citizen Kane" where the article segmented the story, it helps make me understand how most narratives are made. There are bold points which show that they are main scenes from the movie, then there are sub-points that are like shots from the scene. These sub-points are sequences that play out from the scene then it'll transition to the next important scene which creates a new bold and sub-points. In short this example from the reading shows that it is quite simple to create a narrative in a film maker standpoint.
Metaphors on Vision
After reading Stan Brakhage's - Metaphors on Vision, I have a greater understanding of Brakhage's filmmaking methods. You can always strive to make a work better is what I learned most from the reading. You have the freedom to put whatever you want in your works so you have the power to do whatever you wish to achieve in your film. Brakhage presents his film in his own way, a lot different than others. Brakhage dug really deep into the visualization of his works to make his work better and that's why he basically created a whole different approach on making a film.
