Dr. Van Kets developed a theoretically-based insight into the perception of cinematography with her work titled “The emotions of a lens”. Thus, adding a novel focus to the field of conventional film studies. Her current research project, titled: Visual Storytelling “Qu’est-ce que la mise en scène?” investigates further the cinematographer’s role in the cinematographic discourse of a narrative film.
