THE SEMINAR INVESTIGATES THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE FILMMAKER AND THE CHARACTER-S, HIGHLIGHTS THE DIFFERENT BONDS THAT CAN BE FORM DURING A MOVIE PRODUCTION, AND REVEALS HOW IT CAN BE SEEN AS A RELATIONSHIP OF POWER.
- What if your character is in a vulnerable situation?
- What if your character is non-human?
- What if your character is a dramatic experience?
- What if your character is the environment?
- What if your character is a perpetrator?
- What if your character is filmmaking itself?
Following these questions we will discover different approaches to dealing with reality in documentary filmmaking, moving our focus towards the subjects in front of the camera. In 2 hours, we will dig between critical thinking, cross-cultural concerns, authorship and authenticity, aesthetics, and the ethics of representation. At the end, there will be a Q&A.
