FILMMAKING TERMS

Term: Freeze Frame

Share This
« Back to Glossary Index

A special effect in a shot, which creates the impression of a pause in the action or a still photograph. This effect is accomplished by reprinting one frame many times, usually with an optical printer or by means of digital editing. As such, it differs from the “freeze frame” or still frame option found on DVD players to individually pause the playback of a film. A freeze frame in a film is often used in combination with voice-over narration to situate the plot in time or to comment on a character’s thoughts and feelings.

Filmmakers Academy

We appreciate your participation, loyalty, and feedback over the years. We’re going to transition you to our new All Access membership, until your anniversary date of renewal (when you originally signed up on the Hurlbut Academy).

Here Are Your Next Steps to Transition to the Filmmakers Academy Platform 

  • Step 1: You will receive an email from us that contains your username and a temporary password.
  • Step 2: Click on the link in the email to claim your account and login.
  • Step 3: Enter your username and password.
  • Step 4: Voila! You did it

If you are an Annual Member

  • Annual members will be transitioned and continue their membership on the Filmmakers Academy platform until the anniversary date of your renewal (when you originally signed up on the Hurlbut Academy). *You will be given an extension in length of membership if your last annual payment was more than the special introductory price.
  • Credit Card Customers: Your credit card will automatically be charged on your anniversary date of renewal at the special introductory rate of $396. You will receive an email 10 days prior to your card being charged.
  • PayPal Customers: Upon your anniversary date of renewal, you will need to sign up again in the Filmmakers Academy platform at the special introductory rate of $396 as your Hurlbut Academy PayPal account will need to be canceled. So, your payment is collected by the Filmmakers Academy PayPal account rather than the Hurlbut Academy account.

If you are a Monthly Member

  • Monthly members will pay their current monthly rate and have access to the Filmmakers Academy platform until January 31, 2022. At that time, you will receive an email from us stating that your account has expired, then you can join the annual All Access membership to Filmmakers Academy at the special introductory price of $396.
