Study Objectives:

Zkvalitňování myšlení a psaní o filmu (o jeho obsahu i stylu); kladení relevantních otázek, promýšlení vhodného analytického postupu, volba adekvátních subtémat rozboru (tvar) a interpretace (významy a smysl), formulování vlastního názoru na základě profesionální a doložitelné argumentace - nikoliv dojmologie.

Mode of delivery:

Group discussion „provoked“ by the instructor with a collection of questions and questionably overly assertive (and possible demagogic) judgements, as well as rash superficial and overly subjective and evaluatve without appropriate argumentation. A written essay over a possible multi-faceted analysis and interpretation or a critique dedicated to a selected film of one's choice.

Prerequisites and co-requisites:

Ability to use professional processes at a film school (recognition of the technical potential of film language), meaning an initiation into part of the professional discipline.

Recommended optional programme components

Course contents:

The core of the course is created by the individual and performance (written) of class participants, consulted upon with the instructor. Several time during the semester is a colloquium discussion on the theme of a selected film and arranged so attention is gradually devoted to all elements and aspects of the film work (not only the theme but the construction of the image) so they may be consistently and thoroughly covered. The course program originates in the interests and suggestions of the participants, prefering works which document the most current trends in world cinema.

Study materials:

Film on media. Review and articles in professional periodicals. Internet information about filmmakers and the reception (reviews) of their works. Film festivals and other awards.
