There is a debate about where independent filmmaking stands; Is it a business form or an art form? According to Paul Battista, the writer of&nbsp;<em>Independent Film Producing,&nbsp;<\/em>it is most certainly an art form. Moreover, he strictly believes that a movie is no different from painting, sculpting, or writing. As one of the art forms, independent filmmaking is unique and controversial from time to time. However, most importantly, independent movies are the future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>VMP Films acknowledges that creating an independent art form is indeed the future. As they declare in their \u201c<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dostoevsky-bts.com\/METHOD-2022.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Our Method of Producing<\/a><\/em>\u201d, VMP Films is dedicated to the&nbsp;<em>art&nbsp;<\/em>of independent filmmaking. Consequently, VMP Films have been contributing to the art of independent films for a long time. VMP Films and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0838564\/\">Vitaly Sumin<\/a> produced many award-winning films such as&nbsp;<em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shadesofday.com\"><strong>Shades of Day-New Directors Cut-2022<\/strong><\/a><\/em>,&nbsp;<em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1558579\/\">Notes from the New World<\/a>,&nbsp;<\/strong>and<\/em>&nbsp;<em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt1846778\/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0\">The Missing Screenwriter<\/a><\/strong>. <\/em>Furthermore, VMP Films is not only the past and present of independent cinema but also the future. One of their latest movies<a href=\"https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt2832722\/?ref_=ttpl_pl_tt\">&nbsp;<em><strong>AN LA STORY: The Making of the award-winning Notes from the New World<\/strong><\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;<\/em>is almost out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will discuss how independent cinema and VMP Films play a role in the art world and in cinema&#8217;s past, present, and future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>INDEPENDENT CINEMA AND ART&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/downloadcinema.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"229\" height=\"220\" src=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/downloadcinema.png\" alt=\"Art movies \" class=\"wp-image-3921780\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>There are <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Seven_arts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">seven<\/a> fine art disciplines: painting, sculpture, literature, architecture, theater, music, and film. Although the film is one of them, there are still arguments over this. Films contain a lot of different aspects of art. There is acting, lighting, composing a scene, making the props, music, and sometimes even dancing. Thus, we can say that film is an art form that is a combination of multiple arts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>\u201cEven to the sincere lover of the film in its present form, it must seem that the film is overwhelmingly used for keeping \u201crecords\u201d of creative achievements: of plays, actors, novels, or just plain nature\u2026\u201d   <\/p><p>-Hans Richter<\/p><cite> Richter, H. (1951). The Films as an Original Art Form. <em>College Art Journal<\/em>, 157-161.<br>&nbsp;<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>As Hans Richter described, films contain most of the art forms within. Even though this is where the argument of whether cinema is an art form or not begins, it also proves that cinema is definitely an art. For instance, when a cinematographer designs the light, he\/she paints a picture. When the composer composes a piece for the film, he\/she adds a feeling to the scene. Thus, the art of cinema&nbsp;<em>records<\/em>&nbsp;and adds to other art forms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Admittedly, independent movies have more innovative qualities due to their unique nature. In an independent movie, the director tells the story from a distinctive point of view. Independent movies don\u2019t need to stay inside the lines. On the contrary, they paint a beautiful picture on an empty canvas.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/filmss.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"630\" height=\"293\" src=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/filmss.png\" alt=\"Vitaly Sumin - art movies premiere - shades of day \" class=\"wp-image-3921781\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/filmss.png 630w, https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/filmss-300x140.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PRESENT &amp; FUTURE of Art Movies<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The number of independent movies produced each year has almost doubled in the last decade, says Paul Battista in his book. It is no surprise that people are seeking alternative and more innovative ways to create. While mainstream cinema repeats itself like a broken record over and over again, independent cinema plays a new tune each time. Most of the new filmmakers don\u2019t want to follow the rules. Thus, they look for alternative and innovative ways to produce movies. Instead of knocking on the doors of mainstream studios, they find their own path. They change and bend the rules of cinema and reach another level of storytelling.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, independent filmmakers play a key role in the art world. By expanding the limits of filmmaking and art, they innovate and create. Moreover, in a constantly changing world, independent filmmakers become the future of the art world. A perfect example of the future of Art Movies is <a href=\"http:\/\/vmpfilms.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">VMP Films<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>VMP Films&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/LOGO.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"168\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dostoevsky-bts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/LOGO.png\" alt=\"VMP Films - art - art movies\" class=\"wp-image-3921783\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Beginning &amp; Past&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Vitaly Sumin and his team at VMP Films have produced many successful movies over the years.
