Abstract

In the process of transferring meaning, visual narrative arts such as painting, theater, dance, architecture, photography, cinema, and television are built on language images. This language, which is called the visual language, makes sense with visuals, that is, the visual language. Lighting is one of the vital elements in the creation of images as well as natural light. The director makes formal arrangements on light and lighting, one of the important elements of cinematography, creating meaning and especially fear with images. Camera angles are also important in the installation of the fear element. These elements of fear are constructed from an artistic and aesthetic point of view. In the visual narrative, light and camera angles are revealed in aesthetic structure that provides desired effect besides obtaining a certain lighting and shooting process. The aim of this study is to investigate how two cinematographic elements such as illumination and camera angles are used to create meaning in images.
