Course content
The course unit in the form of consultations solves practical problems of realization of the graduate film in relation to the created concept of the pictorial part of the film. Together with the students, we look for the most suitable and feasible solutions. The consultation analyzes similar concepts and, on their example, leads the student to a wide-ranging controversy about pictorial representation. The student is, even more, looking for a relationship between a literary masterpiece and its transferability to the image. He/she analyzes the expression. The inter-media portability of expression is seriously addressed. Students are looking for the relationship between visual dramaturgy and the film genre. The relationship of intention - medium - the viewer is also analyzed.
