Students will acquire a fully-rounded and well developed complex insight into documentary cinema from a variety of modes: representational, film-making, a practical approach to writing about subjects and proposals, by undertaking small practical exercises using only simple tools.

Forma studia:

Lecture/seminar.

Předpoklady a další požadavky:

Students are required to undertake two practical exercises utilising only mobile phones or simple digital cameras.

Obsah kurzu:

The course focuses on exploring documentary cinema from a broad range of artistic and rhetorical standpoints examining the representation of reality, via both a theoretical and empirical base. As its foundation the course considers the theoretical approaches of Nichols, Bruzzi and Gauthier within the context of theories of representation (especially Jost).

Apart from screenings and subsequent reflections, the course will also include 2 small practical exercises with the purpose of examining documentary principles (the level of technical accomplishment within the resulting films is not overly important, as students will often use either mobile phones or small digital cameras).

Each session consists of an introduction, a screening and a discussion of selected films, organized either historically, or in accordance with considered modes of documentary film-making: poetical, methods of exposition, observational, interactive, reflective/reflexive, performance based. Two sessions will also include subsequent screenings and discussion of the students' practical exercises.
