Abstract
Art or painting created an impact on classic and modern-day films to draw visual ideas and references for mise-en-scene, cinematography and production design and style. Numerous filmmakers such as Stanley Kubrick, Porter, Munreau, Andrei Tarkovsky, and Martin Scorcese draw ideas from paintings, which help them create visual designs in the online world. In addition, these filmmakers then implement the ideas on the overall story, composition, and framing, the lighting and mise-en-scene to tell stories visually. This essay explores the idea that cinema has a heritage in paintings and visual storytelling is painting with light and movement. Focusing on the film Andrei Rublev (1966) by Andrei Tarkovsky, painting inspires the filmmaker to create specific elements such as visual narrative, compositions and framing, lighting and the mise-en-scene. Further comparisons and similarities are drawn between different artworks and films of filmmakers, such as Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon and Martin Scorsese’s The Age Of Innocence with Tarkovsky’s, Rublev. My Goal here is to show that art and paintings, although creates a different impact on the point of view and ideologies of directors and their films, these different ideas and concept meet at one common juncture. Connects viewers and creates a meaning which impacts them in various ways.
