Contractor : Actor of the Film
Tender Document and drawing : Script of the Film written by director
Construction : Action (real shooting of film on the spot)
Sun : Light
VIEW (3D) : Cinema Poster
Rhythm / Kinesthetics experience : Music in Film
Client : Producer

Architect : Director and writer of the Film
Architect act as director in construction of the building , in cinema director controls every steps happen in the movie scene similarly architect controls every steps happen in construction on site

Contractor : actor of the Film
Contractor acts like executive agency in construction , in cinema actor act as per instruction of director and follow script in the same way contractor works on site as per instruction of architect and follow building drawings designed by the architect

Drawings and tender documents plays same role in construction as it play by script in cinema

Construction : Action (real shooting of film on the spot)
Construction is the real work happen on the site which is directed and written by an architect and executed by a contractor, it can be analog with the movie shooting

Sun : Light
In architecture sun is the main source of light which makes building visible to human eye. In cinema the light plays the same role of the sun, it makes actors and the background visible

VIEW (3D) : Cinema Poster
View is a virtual 3D picture of the building before it is constructed. it is made by the architect to show the client that how it will look after construction. In cinema , poster highlights the salient features of the movie for the viewers.

Rhythm / Kinesthetics experience : Music in Film
Architecture is experience through series of spaces in which user walk . In this movement they experience linear space like corridor and at times cuboid space like hall these experience create rhythm in architecture. In films background music create same experience of change in scene.

What is the difference between film, movie, and cinema?

Gerald Mast in Film/Cinema/Movie: "A Theory of Experience" focuses early on in his book on  the disambiguation of the 3 terms. He points out that “movie” is an Americanism, a slang used in the early days of Hollywood as an abbreviated form of “moving pictures”. Since it was originated in  Hollywood,  the heartland and birthplace of  the big budget entertainment industries,  the word “movie” has more fun, enjoyable, easy, amusing, etc. connotations attached to it. Movies act more as diversions and escapades from daily lives, as they emotionally stimulate their audiences and capture  their attention  for brief amounts  of  time by means  of great audio‐visual  “wizardries”.  Movies are rarely the center of deep intellectual discussions.

Film on the other hand, as Mast elucidates, has higher intellectual connotations attached to it. Contrary to movies, watching a film is not necessarily an entertaining experience; it is however (theoretically  of  course)  a  thought  provoking,  and  culturally  enriching  one.  Cinematographic works  outside  the  circle  of  influence  of  Hollywood,  or  Bollywood,  for  that  matter,  are considered  to  be  more  as  films than  movies  since  the  purpose  of  their  production  is  not necessarily solely an entertaining and economic one: filmmakers5 have relatively more freedom over  their  works  as  they  are  not  constrained  by  big  budgetary  demands  from  their producers/production studios, i.e. investors. This relative  financial  freedom in film production is often interpreted as an artistic freedom of expression, which doesn’t always necessarily entail
amusement  from  audiences  experiencing it.  Consequently, films  have  usually more  of  a  niche audience distribution contrary to movies aimed at appealing and pleasing an as large as possible market base.

Cinema is  “far more genteel and classier  than previous both” according  to Mast, and it can be considered a s having a “more generic meaning appearing as a plural and standing  for a whole class of works.”
