I'm a movie fan. My hobby is not only watching movies, but also reading reviews and reviews. I like to learn more and more about the world of cinema, because this field is now developing very rapidly. New products do not cease to please me every year.
Cinema is a whole world of art. The success of a movie depends on a lot of details that are not noticeable at first glance. In a good movie, every frame is a picture, thought out and finished. Sometimes the whole impression of the viewer depends on the color of the scenery or on the change of plans. And the script in general is a very difficult thing, you will not please everyone. Therefore, a high-quality film is an amazing achievement of a huge number of people.
When I watch a movie, I'm immersed in other lives. The video gives me a chance to see the world in all its diversity. I see things that I would never have seen without the movies. I'm learning more and more, even though I don't sit at my textbooks.
I would like to make this hobby a profession: become a film critic or even a director. I would also like to make people recognize the world around them from my work.
Объяснение: Пойдет? Я – киноман. Мое хобби – не только просмотр фильмов, но и чтение рецензий и отзывов. Мне нравится узнавать о мире кино все больше и больше, ведь эта сфера сейчас очень стремительно развивается. Новинки не перестают радовать меня каждый год.
Кино – это целый мир в искусстве. Успех кинокартины зависит от множества деталей, которые не заметны на первый взгляд. В хорошем фильме каждый кадр – это картина, продуманная и законченная. Иногда от цвета декораций или от смены планов зависит все впечатление зрителя. А сценарий вообще очень сложная вещь, всем не угодишь. Поэтому качественный фильм – это удивительное достижение огромного числа людей.
Когда я смотрю фильм, я погружаюсь в другие жизни. Видео дает мне шанс увидеть мир во всем его многообразии. Я вижу то, что никогда бы не увидел без кино. Я узнаю все больше и больше, хоть и не сижу за учебниками.
Мне бы хотелось сделать данное хобби профессией: стать кинокритиком или даже режиссером. Я бы тоже хотел делать так, чтобы люди узнавали окружающий мир из моих работ.
