Full textIndependent filmmaking in China, with the directors' reiteration of literary and cinematic realism carried on from May Fourth, reflects the nation's social uneasiness triggered by the enlarging division between the enlightenment indenture and the unidirectional modernization project. Resisting the national allegories and Hollywood-style big budget fantasies made by the Fifth Generation, independent filmmakers bring back to the screen the unadorned life of city inhabitants. The meaning of "independent" and "alternative" does not exclusively lie in the production and distribution venues but is galvanized by film directors' perception and cinematic depiction of what constitutes the social realities of contemporary China. The locality of hometown and the corporeality of the filmed subjects help to sustain a legitimate image-space for the socially underrepresented, at a time when the Party co-opts the discourse of nation-state to renew their regime. Directors employ the politics of sexuality, where body is the only thing remaining in their control, to usher in a redefinition of the Party and reassure the agency of Chinese intellectuals who were betrayed during the June Fourth massacre. The exegesis of the independent generation extends to the digital video (DV) filmmakers, whose cinematic language features the increased sense of interrogation between the camera and the characters. For the directors' claims of neither representing the people nor wrestling against the Party, nonetheless, DV films retreat to a safe but enclosed space, in which the aggrandized size of the body on screen displays a fractioned and diminished self cutting off from the outside world and falling short of its full potential. Independent filmmaking in China derives its policy-shaping capacity from its increasing participants (domestic audiences, amateur filmmakers, critics, and scholars) and multiplying operative channels (film funds, online forums, and non-official archives), collectively converting filmmaking from a privilege exclusive to the state apparatus and its elite delegates to a right of self-expression belonging to each individual.

Filmmaking operates behind the closed doors of the studio system. Entire compounds of private space are devoted to the practice of film. Generic city streets, practical sets, a digital environments have had a long history of substituting for real locations. My thesis proposal examines the inversion of this concept. What if the city were to be the new studio backlot for student filmmaking? How would filmmakers and designers frame the urban context with cinematic motion? Greater London has its own film history, playing home numerous period, fantasy, drama and action set pieces. Its privatized industry hosts six major film studios as well as a multitude of smaller studios. More importantly, the city has a large number of performing arts and film academies spread throughout. The proposal approaches cinema through ascending scalar operations. A series of instruments explore design's agency within the scope of student filmmaking. One, a helmet that incorporates a director's toolkit. Two, a diffuser for grips to light a scene to desired effect. Three, a set of participatory devices that facilitate paradigmatic cinematography in public space. The final component of the proposal is a pop-up infrastructural framework that facilitates camera choreography. The dispersion of this framework across London's iconic fabric provides a platform for students do any number of camera set-ups with enormous amounts of production value. The intent of this new framework is to provide new opportunities for ephemeral contexts, stages and sets. The instigator of each of framework is site and a scenario that shares common visuals with action, fantasy, drama and romantic comedy genres.

Full textPrevisualisering är en process inom filmskapande där filmskapare visuellt kan planera specifika scener med kamerafunktioner, belysning, karaktärsrörelser, etc. I denna uppsats utvärderas en prototyp för previsualisering i virtual reality för samarbete där flera filmskapare kan vara närvarande i en virtuell miljö för att dela ett kreativt arbete i realtid. Kostnaderna för datorgrafikbaserade effekter är betydande inom filmproduktion. I och med previsualisering kan dessa scener planeras i detalj för att minska mängden arbete som påverkar den senare produktionsfasen. Genom att utföra en studie med 20 filmskapare visar resultaten att användningen av virtual reality för distribuerade previsualiseringsprocesser för samarbete är användbart för verkliga scenarion. Dessa resultat ger insikter om hur man bäst utformar virtual reality-applikationer som kan användas för distribuerat arbete och lyfter fram fallgropar inom vissa designval.

This thesis interrogates the relationship between non-fiction film and urban discourse. It outlines intellectual and visual strategies at play in a selection of non-fiction films that actively assign meaning to the mutual influence of urban form and social processes. In so doing, I identify two overlapping traditions, the evocative and the evidentiary, which classify the applications of filmmaking to the interpretation of cities. The research focuses on two American urban planning films that represent radically different ways of organizing their visual content in order to advocate a specific kind of urban reform: The City (1939) by Willard Van Dyke and Ralph Steiner and The Social Life of Small Urban Spaces (1980) by William H Whyte. Each case requires a thorough contextualization and location with urban studies, planning and film histories. The thesis, therefore, is arranged as a chronological exploration of the antecedents and turning points that explain the difference between these two films' formal strategies and philosophical positions. My analysis begins by linking the kinetic and fragmentary qualities of modernity in art and theory to the earliest experiments in creating moving images on film. It goes on to explore in greater depth the development of a formal cinematic vocabulary for the evocation of urban space. The adaptation of evocative techniques to the political subject matter of regional planning introduces an extended historical and formal analysis of The City that demonstrates how it draws from the diverse elements discussed in the previous chapters and applies them to the planning agenda of Lewis Mumford and the Regional Planning Association of America.
(cont.) Evidentiary techniques developed as methods of resistance to the top-down planning philosophies espoused by films like The City; the oppositional practices that emerged during the 1960s gave rise to a mentality of learning a city through looking at it, proceeding from the particulars to the general. The pioneering film work of William H. Whyte -- the most overt application of filmmaking to a specific urban planning agenda -- advances this inductive position to an instrumental use of images to support empirically a series of normative goals for the form of urban public space. The thesis concludes with a call for a productive synthesis of the two modes, a proposition that include a work-process narrative of my own attempts to represent urban dynamics on video and some initial implications of filmmaking's interpretive potential for urban planners and designers. Such as synthesis, I argue, requires recuperating the ability of montage to evoke the abstract essences of urban experience while maintaining the investigative order of operations -- learning through looking -- of the evidentiary tradition.

Full textSamtidigt som att våra beteendemönster i hur vi konsumerar media förändras i takt med att nya medieteknologier uppstår, förändras också sättet media produceras. Filmskapande följer många gånger en särskild process (ofta med en tydlig hierarki av specialister inom produktionsgruppen) och berättelsen har traditionellt sett berättats från en part till den andre – från producenten/regissören till publiken. Men internets intåg har i många avseenden förändrat filmindustrin, vilket har öppnat upp för en ökad dialog mellan dessa två parter, vilket har omformat publikens position till en mer medskapande sådan. Detta har resulterat i enstörre demokratisering av filmmediet, där den en gång passiva publiken nu involverar sig mer i den kreativa filmskapandeprocessen. Crowdsourcing, som redan är vanligt förekommande inom exempelvis produktdesign och serviceindustrier, har blivit en alternativ metod för att skapa kreativt innehåll. Med sociala medier som en möjliggörande faktor skapas hela filmer endast med hjälp av material inskickat från den framtida publiken. Denna studie ämnar svara på problemformuleringarna: "Vad krävs för att framgångsrikt använda crowdsourcing inom filmproduktion?", samt delfrågorna "Vilken roll har sociala medier spelat i skapandet av crowdsourcadefilmer?" och "Finns det någon framtid för crowdsourcing inom filmskapande?" Sex stycken film- och serie-produktioner av olika format har analyserats: två dokumentärer, tre webbserier och en TV-show. Denna studie har undersökt hur varje produktion har använt sig av crowdsourcing i dess produktionsprocess. Utöver det har en kvalitativ undersökning genom fem semistrukturerade intervjuer genomförts, där varje intervjuobjekt har haft nyckelpositioner inom respektive produktion. Resultaten visade på ett starkt behov av att ha en redan väletablerad skara av följare eller ambassadörer innan man startar en crowdsourcing-kampanj. Sociala medier visade sig också vara en fundamental beståndsdel i möjliggörandet av detta, eftersom de skapar en omedelbar tvåvägskommunikation mellan producenten och publiken. Användandet av crowdsourcing kommer förmodligen att fortsätta, och metoden har fortfarande en ansenlig outforskad potential. Med anledning av metodens beroende av sociala medier, kommer fortsatt forskning inom området troligtvis att gynnas av att utforska samarbeten mellan filmskapande och interaktiva medier.
