Obsah kurzu
This is a follow-up course to Visual Theory 1 ? although the first course is not required - and continues the exploration of the structural components or unconscious and subconscious building-blocks of visual images, how they work and how film-makers, photographers and other visual artists manipulate them in different ways to provoke specific reactions from viewers. This course concentrates mainly on design elements.
As in the first course, students are given simple practical and theoretical assignments to enable them to see the effects and dynamics of the individual elements for themselves and the option of creating an ?image sketchbook? during the semester. It is in lecture/seminar format and illustrated with photographic and cinematographic examples from both classical and contemporary image-makers.

Hodnoticí metody a kritéria
Assessment will be based on (1) how well students are able to apply the material presented and discussed each week in lecture to images chosen and, for classwork assignments, written about by the students; (2) a final examination essay, to be developed related to lecture material and illustrating points and ideas with published images of students' own choice. Because (1) requires class participation, without which students will not understand the requirements for the written work for both the homework assignments and the exam, attendance is an integral part of this grade.
Initial weekly seminars will be based on homework assignments, where students will either take or submit published photographs or images of their choice, sometimes together with a short essay. Assignments are therefore required to be submitted on time. Students are expected to inform the lecturer in advance if they will be late in fulfilling an assignment (up to one week after it is due); late work will not be accepted unless this is done. No student who has not submitted homework assignments will be permitted to take the final examination.
Students are also expected, as a basic courtesy, to inform the lecturer in advance if they expect to be late or absent, or the absence will not be excused. A maximum of 3 excused absences is permitted; otherwise credit may not be given and/or students not allowed to take the final exam
Assessment and final grade:
The course grade will be calculated as follows:
-Attendance ? 10%
-classwork assignments/class participation ? 40%
-final examination ? 50%
Poznámka
Mobile telephones except in emergency situations and by prior arrangement will not be tolerated in class.
