Cinematography in Semih Kaplanoglu Cinema and the Layers of Meaning Revealed by Visual Language
Abstract
When we analyse films that are valuable in terms of their intellectual and aesthetic structures, it is seen that directing of photography has a special place. Cinematography is one of the points where films based on different intellectual and aesthetic approaches differ from each other and create their own unique style. Semih Kaplanoğlu is one of the directors who succeeded in creating a unique style with cinematography. Kaplanoğlu frames the human being with his/her spiritual experiences without detaching him/her from his/her ties in this world. This study analyses how cinematographic practices form the style of Kaplanoğlu's cinema and determines the role of directing of photography in the formation of the intellectual and spiritual structure established in the films. In the context of the key meanings and values in the films Egg, Milk, Honey and Grain, the shots of the selected scenes and sequences are analysed with close analysis method. In Egg, Kaplanoğlu connects the negative space in the frame to the spiritual space outside the frame, he hides the spiritual state of the character in Milk in the choice of whether or not to cross the border between the two ends of the composition, he reveals the spiritual tension of the character in the compositions where the light decreases in Honey, and in Grain, he embodies the spiritual in a dream plane purified from colours.
