Course content
The teaching will focus on communication and presentation of AV works. The student will use the knowledge of writing literary and technical screenplays, building a film crew, working with actors, directing assigned exercises and assistance. The course aims to acquaint students with the dramatic structure of Aristotle and the American three-act structure. The dramatic story will be analyzed in terms of the basics of plot, situation, conflict, external and internal drama, dialogue, motivation and chance. In the course we focus on practical exercises of individual assignments so that the skills are experienced and deepened. In particular, we focus on: - creating and building conflict, gradation, working with time, creating dialogues - we practice writing accompanying texts: synopsis, explanation, treatment, annotation In the course unit we realize practicing work with an actor, creating technical screenplays, creating moodboards, storyboards, or animations. In practical etudes and exercises, we clarify the boundaries of fiction and documentary narrative procedures. The practical exercises are focused on the temporythmics of film expression.
