Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Additional Information:

I think the original contents of this article were really just a subsection to the core topic of the article. Interative Film techniques are really just a subsection to the greater notion of cinematic technique. From what I could find there is no current article which synthesises all the film techniques which are used to create meaning and emotion in (something which would certainly be useful for secondary school english students!). This article may be badly titled (for original content and new content alike) - opinions?. There is much room for extension. Mrcurly 09:34, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

Many people refer to these techniques as 'film techniques' and I don't think the title should be changed. I'm sure if someone searches for cinematic techniques there could be a link that says 'see Film Techniques' or another kind of link between the two articles. PLooB 06:42, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Agreed, please dont change (user:81.76.121.117)

I think we could have a fantastic article here, but it still needs a lot of work. Let's see how it progresses, I would be glad to help. Peter S. 14:13, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
