Denna analys behandlar frågeställningar om diasporakultur, identitet och representation i relation till dess inverkan på tolkningen av Gegen die Wand och dess filmspråk (2004, Fatih Akin). Finns det ett specifikt diasporafilmspråk som kännetecknar Gegen die Wand?.

Uppsatsen behandlar betydelsen som film har för vår förståelse av olika fenomen och historiska händelser, för förmedling av ideologi samt hur filmskapare arbetar för att övertyga sin publik..

The aim of this essay is to find some of the main developing tendencies in the advertisement genre during the period of 1930-2000. The analysis is based on three examples of Gevalia Cinema and TV-advertisement. Research findings are the result of using theories from different but relevant sciences, which are media, linguistics and rhetoric. Media studies help to explain the influence of the society and technology development on the advertising business. Linguistics and rhetoric give the main methods and terminology for the basic as well as comparing analyses of the three advertisements in question.

This report describes the work and the results found when comparing three different 3d modeler applications. The programs are 3ds Max, Maya and Cinema 4D. The comparisons focus on the possibilities/the amount of freedom these programs interface offer to its plugins. The comparisons are made from the point of view of a tool for creating animations developed as a plugin for these modelers. This plugins demands on the system it is loaded into have been analyzed and from the results of this analysis a template have been created.

Uppsatsen behandlar mottagandet av Wallanderfilmerna från Ystad i svensk dags- och kvällspress. Den utgår teoretiskt från receptionsteorin såsom den presenterats av bl.a. Janet Staiger och behandlar främst filmerna "Innan frosten" (2005) och "Mastermind" (2005). Uppsatsen visar på och analyserar skillnaderna i mottagandet av de bägge filmerna och föreslår därefter några möjliga tolkningar av resultaten..

I uppsatsen analyseras den amerikanska redigeringen av Elvis Presleys satellitsända tv-konsert ?Aloha from Hawaii? (Marty Pasetta, 1973) stilistiskt och kontextuellt. Syftet är att utreda huruvida sändningen enbart hade underhållningsmässiga motiv eller om man även kan se den som amerikansk, kulturimperialistisk propaganda. Teoretiska utgångspunkter är främst Daniel Dayans och Elihu Katzs forskning om media events och David Ludvigssons teorier om produktionsfaktorer inom dokumentärfilm. Även P.

Within the field of Cinema studies, the question of visual representation is a fundamental pillar. An immense volume of theoretical work has been written on the subject, with various academic approaches such as feministic, postcolonial and gay/lesbian. Yet there is a large social group that seems to have been overlooked within the representational discourse: the elderly. This group of people appears to be a blind spot on the multicultural retina, too often neglected within the area of cultural studies. But as the baby boomer generation, who has always redefined the different stages of life (youth, adulthood, middle age), is entering old age, things are slowly changing.

När man går på bio eller sitter hemma i soffan och ser på film tänker man sällan på filmens egentliga innehåll och symbolik. Man ser på filmen för att slappna av eller för att tänka på något annat. Syftet med denna uppsats är att framförallt analysera de kvinnliga karaktärerna i Lord of the Rings ur ett genusperspektiv och att höja medvetandet om dessa karaktärers roll i filmerna. Framför allt kommer fokus att ligga på de tre kvinnliga gestalterna som skildras. Jag har även valt att kortfattat behandla karaktären Rosa Kattum, som kontrast till de andra kvinnorna då hon skiljer sig från dem på ett för uppsatsens syfte intressant sätt..

The object of this essay was about youth's experiences of their possibility of consumption. We also wanted to analyze if their possibility of consumption had a connection with their experience of happiness. Another part of the object was to see if there where any differences between girls and boys concerning the questions above. One of the issues we had was if the youth's money was enough for their needs of consumption. The method we used were a questionnaire, which we asked a class of 22 pupils to fill in.

Denna uppsats diskuterar utifrån paradigmbegreppet och Torben Grodals kognitiva filmteori huruvida naturvetenskapligt influerade empiriska metoder - exempelvis ögonrörelsestudier - är tillämpbara inom filmvetenskapen. Uppsatsen reder inledningsvis ut paradigmbegreppet och diskuterar vad användandet av detta begrepp har fått för konsekvenser för humanioras del. Därefter avhandlas hur filmvetenskapen traditionellt har behandlat åskådaren och Torben Grodals teorier diskuteras utifrån deras tvärvetenskapliga potential. Slutligen refererar uppsatsen till ett antal naturvetenskapliga artiklar om ögonrörelsestudier på ett filmmaterial och några konkreta forskninsförslag presenteras..

Denna uppsats diskuterar, utifrån relevant teori inom narratologin, det filmiska förstapersonsberättandet och dess konstruktion. Med utgångspukt i en synkron studie av ett antal förstapersonsfilmer (Where the Truth Lies, Millennium Mambo, The New World, The Thin Red Line, The Brown Bunny, Eyes Wide Shut och L'Intrus) diskuteras vilka implikationer dessa filmer har för filmteori rörande just det subjektiva berättandet och om det i någon egentlig bemärkelse finns en filmisk motsvarighet till det litterära "jaget"..

This paper investigates strategic opportunities for film festivals in a digital film business, with emphasis on Göteborg international film festival and the Swedish film industry. Using a theoretical framework of strategy analysis, the film value chain is examined with special regards to disruptive technology, and the film festival's unique resources are linked to industry structure. It is shown that relationships between actors and across sectors are crucial features of the film industry, and hence a network perspective is added to the theoretical framework. Barriers to entry are shown to be relatively low in all sectors except the Cinema market, and it is proposed that film festival's could expand into digital distribution, taking advantage of brand strength, customer loyalty and knowledge of industry. The study adds to the mounting research on film festival practice and its significance for marketing and distribution in the film industry, and highlights the emergence of strategic openings in destabilized networks..

The aim of this thesis is to examine user experience and engagements in interactive Cinema.A great deal of the research that is conducted today involves creating interactive films, toexplore and examine film structures. In this study, we build on this research by comparingthree different interactive film structures. To carry out our study, we have categorized threedifferent interactive films after three different models to define their narrative structureand interface. To examine the experiences of those structures we have performed anexperiment where we have collected data from the three different sources; interviews,observations and surveys.It is difficult to draw conclusions about how an interactive film should be constructed asdifferent structures apply to different narratives. Based on our research the conclusion canbe made that the combination between the narrative structure, the narrative content, theaesthetics, the implementation of interactivity and how the film?s interface is constructed ismore important than building a specific structure for an interactive film.

The work of Shakespeare has been popular to make film adaptations of from the birth of Cinema. Macbeth, one of his most often played tragedies, is no exception. But how did Shakespeare portray Lady Macbeth in his play, and how do directors in the 21th century choose to portray her for a modern audience? I will try to find the answer to these questions by analyzing Shakespeare´s play as well as three modern adaptations. I will begin the thesis by looking at scholars´ view in questions regarding gender, free will, adaptations and genre before analyzing the play and the three movies.
