Cíle předmětu
The lecture is structured as an introduction to the film analysis as an art form and dynamic system, narrative and non-narrative, fictional and documentary. It focuses predominantly on the film system as the formal subsystem and the stylistic subsystem. Film production and analysis is conceived as a process of solving problems, artistic on the part of filmmakers and research ones on the part of analysts. The lecture is the basis for the understanding of the film work, the filmmaking process and the possibilities of systemic film analysis, developing the intellectual tradition of Russian formalism, Czech structuralism, neo/formalistic film theories, the historical poetics of the cinema, and formal analyses of documentary cinema.
