Stanley Kubrick
a film director, film producer, screen writer,
     cinematographer and a film editor
“One of the things that gave me the most
   confidence in trying to make a film was
seeing all the lousy films that I saw. Because
I sat there and thought, Well, I don't know a
 goddamn thing about movies, but I know I
      can make a film better than that”
THE LIFE OF STANLEY
          KUBRICK
Kubrick was born on July 26, in the year of 1928 in Manhattan, New York. Kubrick died
at the age of 70 on March 7, 1999.
Kubrick's father taught him chess at age twelve, and the game remained a lifelong obsession.
He also bought his son a Graflex camera when he was thirteen, triggering a fascination with
still photography. As a teenager, Kubrick was interested in jazz, and briefly attempted a
career as a drummer.
Kubrick attended William Howard Taft High School from 1941–45. He was a poor student,
with a meager 67 grade average. He graduated from high school in 1945, but his poor grades,
combined with the demand for college admissions from soldiers returning from the Second
World War, eliminated any hopes of higher education. Later in life, Kubrick spoke
disdainfully of his education and of education in general, maintaining that nothing about
school interested him.His parents sent him to live with relatives for a year in Los Angeles in
the hopes that it would help his academic growth.
While still in high school, he was chosen as an official school photographer for a year. In
1946, since he wasn't able to gain admission to day session classes at colleges, he briefly
attended evening classes at the City College of New York and then left. Eventually, he sought
jobs as a freelance photographer, and by graduation, he had sold a photographic series to
Look magazine. Kubrick supplemented his income by playing chess "for quarters" in
Washington Square Park and various Manhattan chess clubs. He became an apprentice
photographer for Look in 1946, and later a full-time staff photographer. (Many early [1945–
50] photographs by Kubrick have been published in the book Drama and Shadows [2005,
Phaidon Press] and also appear as a special feature on the 2007 Special Edition DVD of 2001:
A Space Odyssey.)
KUBRICK...
Stanley Kubrick's films have several trademark characteristics.
Kubrick was noted for the scrupulous care with which he chose his
subjects, his slow method of working, the variety of genres he worked in,
his technical perfectionism, and his reclusiveness about his films and
personal life.
Kubrick is widely acknowledged as one of the most accomplished,
innovative, and influential filmmakers in the history of cinema. His films
are characterised by a formal visual style and meticulous attention to
detail.
Many of his films had voice-over narration, sometimes taken verbatim
from the novel. With or without narration, all of his films contain
extensive character's-point-of-view footage.
Stanley Kubrick Filmmaking
   Techniques
   Stanley Kubrick’s Filmmaking Technique “Social Surrealism” is the conscious
   manifestation of a subconscious form of forces taking place beneath the mind’s eye.
   Kubrick is more concerned with psychic forces; philosophical and surreal beyond the
   shadow of a doubt, than he is with the emotional life of his characters or the discontent
   of his audience.
   Kubrick’s films are not fictions but psychic depictions of real life. Their setting is the
   mind itself and how one will relate to it. Kubrick’s work deals with history’s dreams. His
   films are political, dealing with creation and the destruction of our moral codes. Most
   significantly, the core is mystical. Kubrick was one of the few filmmakers, which
   believes the motion picture camera can extract a space and time and create a reality
   that attaches to the historical moments of life captured on film.

                        FILMOGRAPHY...
1980’s THE SHINING
The pace of Kubrick's work slowed considerably after Barry Lyndon, and he did not make another
film for five years. The Shining, released in 1980, was adapted from the novel of the same name by
bestselling horror writer Stephen King. The film starred Jack Nicholson as Jack Torrance, a failed
writer who takes a job as an off-season caretaker of the Overlook Hotel, a high-class resort deep in
the Colorado mountains. The job requires spending the winter in the isolated hotel with his wife,
Wendy (played by Shelley Duvall) and their young son, Danny, who is gifted with a form of
telepathy—the "shining" of the film's title.
As winter takes hold, the family's isolation deepens, and the demons and ghosts of the Overlook
Hotel's dark past begin to awake, displaying horrible, phantasmagoric images to Danny, and
driving his father Jack into a homicidal psychosis.
The film was shot entirely on London soundstages, with the exception of second-unit exterior
footage, which was filmed in Colorado, Montana, and Oregon. In order to convey the claustrophobic
oppression of the haunted hotel, Kubrick made extensive use of the newly invented Steadicam, a
weight-balanced camera support, which allowed for smooth camera movement in enclosed spaces.
More than any of his other films, The Shining gave rise to the legend of Kubrick as a megalomaniac
perfectionist. Reportedly, he demanded hundreds of takes of certain scenes (approximately 1.3
million feet of film was shot)

                        Kubrick's film was the
                        second to make notably
                        innovative use of the
                        Steadicam, which can track
                        motion smoothly without a
                        dolly track
