Communicating Emotion Through Images and Music in Narrative Film

Art can be the bearer of expressive qualities embodied into the work by its creator. The creator of the work can imbed into the work his or her own feelings which are deeper than mere emotions. The emotions can be named, but the feelings are on a deeper subconscious more intangible level for which mere labels can not describe, but which in sensitive hands can be incorporated into the work. In the case of narrative film, which is a collaborative art form, it is the choices made by the film\u27s director which facilitates this process, augmented by the musical score when present. The feelings and emotion embedded into the film are in the form of vital energies which can be felt by the viewer.
