Obsah

The spring term will focus 1/ on sound, the often neglected aspect of film style, and 2/ on narration. The students will watch films in their entirety on their own and short extracts illustrating particular topics in the class. The discussion is an important part of each lesson. Mutual exchange of ideas and artistic experiences enables the students to gain as much inspiration as possible. Students should ask anything that is not clear enough, bring their own ideas and participate actively in the whole course. (The course partially covers the topics for CDM final exam.)

  1. Sound: Introduction
  2. The Functions of Dialogue in Narrative Film
  3. Dialogue in Melodrama and other genres
  4. Music in Film I: Dance Music
  5. Music in Film II: Musique concrète
  6. Noise and silence
  7. Point of Audition
  8. Narration: Introduction
  9. Point of View
  10. Spectator in the Text
  11. Network Narratives
  12. Voice-over narration: First-person narrator + Third-person narrator
  13. Complex TV: narration in TV series
  14. Theme: Final Test / Feedback

Předpoklady a další požadavky

Preferably Film Style and Form 1, however it is not a condition of attending no. 2.

Students must attend all classes. If a student is sick or has another duty (e.g. needs to be present on the shooting), they need to apologize to the professor ahead, otherwise, the absence is treated as unexcused. A student with the extensive absences, i.e. five and more (whether excused or unexcused) may fail the course.
