D.W Griffiths Birth of a Nation (1915) Directed, Produced and Co-Written by Griffiths Based on the book: The Clansman: An Historical Romance of the Ku Klux Klan

D.W Griffiths In The Birth of a Nation, white men who are part of the Klan are portrayed as strong and heroic. People of colour were mostly played by white actors with blackened faces. These characters were lackadaisical, aggressive and obsessed with white women. This film is commonly understood to be racist propaganda. It is ground breaking in its use of cinema techniques, but remains tainted with its racism and bigotry. There has been a long running campaign to have the film banned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvG0K5AdKiM 1:44

Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan Christopher Nolan is an A List Hollywood Film Director whose films include Inception, Interstellar and the Christian Bale Batman Trilogy. While much can be said about Nolan as a stylistic director, one of the most important facets of his productions is the use of editing within them. For the most part, Nolan’s films will (at some point) want to tell different stories at the same time. In order to do this, Nolan consistently employs the Parallel Edit technique to communicate the idea that multiple events are occurring at exactly the same time. Perhaps the best example of this is the closing sequence of Inception…

Parallel Editing Parallel Editing (also know as Cross Cutting) is the editing technique of alternating two or more scenes that often happen simultaneously but in different locations. If the scenes are simultaneous, they will often culminate in a single place, where the relevant parties confront each other.
