Italian Neo-Realism style of filming can be defined as a low budget style of filming that uses low budget actors and also can have a poor style of background. this type style of filming could also be considered as underground style of filming used to portray poverty and the struggles of every day life in Italy after World War II. Popular film figures such as Vittorio De Sica, Federico Fellini, and Roberto Rossellini were all figures of Italian Neo Realism. All of these figures depicted the struggle economics challenges that the war caused to people.
The French New Wave was another style of filming which included filmmakers such as Jean Cocteau, and Jean-Luc Godard. These filmakers all came up from the late 1940's through the 1960's. These Filmmakers style of filming had a mix of Italian-neo realism and also a bit of Hollywood cinema. The French new wave gave birth to a certain style of shooting such as in their films there would always be tracking shots that would last for a while. The New Wave also gave birth to rapid shots of scenes and also had more dialogue than films in the past.Notable Films in the French new wave are Beauty and the Beast, Breathless and Week End.
