Uppsatsen är en empirisk studie med en kvalitativ undersökning. Uppsatsen fokuserar på elevers audiovisuella förmåga. Dagens skola kräver andra redskap av dig som pedagog än vad gårdagens skola gjorde. En förändring som innebär många nya inlärningsmetoder som både kan vara positiva och negativa då kunskap om dessa kan vara bristfällig. Film är idag ett ledande medialt verktyg som kan användas till att öka elevers historiska kunskaper och intressen.

The purpose of this essay is to study the film culture in South Africa in a national cinema-context, focusing on the relationship between anti-apartheid film from 1974-1994 and the film in South Africa today. By pitching the South Africa-specific works of Lucia Saks and Jacqueline Maingard against the over-arching debate on national cinema as formulated by, amongst others, Stephen Crofts and Andrew Higson, this study aims to find whether or not a specific South African national cinema have existed, and exists today, or not. The study finds that an underground culture of documentaries and short films made by and for the black population has been in place since the apartheid, and the distribution method on video and television is still being used to reach the black population today. By re-examining the concepts of both the national, and of national cinema to also include film on video and television, the study shows that South Africa has indeed a film culture that can be called a national cinema..

Foric, Armin - Musikens betydelse för film ? En undersökning om musikens inverkan i film (Högskolan Dalarna 2009) är en uppsats som syftar till att försöka förstå hur bakgrundsmusik påverkar film. Genom att använda sig av ett och samma klipp men med olika bakgrundsmusik vill jag försöka förstå hur musik påverkar uppfattningen av en film. Syftet är också att jämföra min och Rasmus Wedins uppsats som heter ?Ljudet är halva upplevelsen...

Problem area and purposeNowadays, 2006, the downloading of music and movies is an increasingly more burning issue. But while the music industry has made great progress in using the Internet as a distribution channel the film industry has been at a standstill for several years. Recently however there has been progress in the form of a few film companies beginning to offer their customers legal ways to acquire films over the Internet. But with this progress one central question arises, which this report will try to answer; what are the important factors for selling films as the Internet moves from primarily being a information channel to also functioning as a distribution channel? The purpose is to examine what the consumers find important when purchasing film, and to establish to what degree there is a substitution effect between DVDs and downloadable films.MethodThe report is first and foremost based on an Internet survey with a total of 383 participants.

Detta kandidatarbete undersöker hur en karaktärs fantasi kan gestaltas med genren magisk realism inom animerad film.

Denna kandidatuppsats tar upp tankar kring hur de svenska biograferna kan komma att förändras i framtiden. Uppsatsen innehåller en historisk bakgrund om biografen, en enkätundersökning om film och biografvanor i Skövde och intervjuer med ett flertal personer inom den svenska filmbranschen. Uppsatsen fokuserar sig i grund och botten på tankar kring hur biografen kommer att förändras för biografpubliken där visningsförhållanden och tillgång till film är två viktiga aspekter. Uppsatsen lägger extra stor vikt vid vad som kommer att förändras i och med att den svenska biografen går in i en ny digitaliseringsera..

This thesis presents a study aiming to identify the selection criteria for the digitization of posters at the National Library of Sweden (Kungl. biblioteket). The theory is that cultural heritage institutions are empowered to decide how our cultural heritage is presented as they select what items (or, as in this study, posters) will be digitized. The poster is studied as it is an interesting media form which historically was an important means of communication. The poster can represent and reflect historical events and opinions in society.

Baled silage has become one of the most important conservation methods in Sweden. Because we take our grass as silage we get the quality and the good hygenic that we would like to have. Silage has become a big buisiness also in the horse feeding where many of the breeders have changed from the hay to the hay-silage. The difference between regular silage and haysilage is that the hay silage is dryer (60-70%DM). The hay-silage has also put higher demands on machinery and wrapping material since the grass gets sharper and harder to press together real hard. The main reason for the test was to compare two different systems for wrapping, the new Cross Pac and conventional.

This study deals with a research on what the opening sounds in movies tell us about the story that we are about to follow. The purpose is to examine if and how the sound in the first five minutes of the movie contribute in giving information about the film?s genre. The theoretical base includes both genre theory and Michel Chion?s theory on film sound.

Filmmusic is often composed specially for a film. When analyzing film-music it seems very common to study the function of the music in a narrative context in order to see how it cooperates or relates to this narration. In the present thesis I am investigating the interaction between film and music as two ingredients on an equal level. In short: what happens when a filmmaker chooses music that has already been composed for another occasion, even in another time and a different cultural context? My aim is twofold: first to examine current film analytic strategies, secondly to find new ways of comprehend pre-composed music in relation to its new setting in a film.

In this paper we aim to delve deeper into the film industry and how their approach to streaming services such as Netflix might be the solution to the problems with piracy (people downloading illegally instead of paying for the products) - but before they can change the mindset of people, they have to overcome some issues that might make it hard for the film industry to adapt a fully functionable streaming sollution in the veins of Spotify. To come up with some conclusions regarding this matter, we focused our study on the consumers rather than the industry in order to get a better understanding about what the consumers think about the streaming services of film that are offered today. We used both surveys and interviews in order to gather information regarding the consumers thoughts on how the landscape of film distribution has evolved to a point where Video-on-Demand offers the opportunity to watch movies and TV-series whereever and whenever they want. Our research shows that the majority of consumers are willing to pay for streaming services of film and hold the new technology in high regard. However, the concensus among the consumers that were involved in our study shows that the streaming services offered today have to evolve even further in the future before it can fully work as a substitute for illegal downloading.

Since the release of Avatar in 2009, the 3D movie industry has experienced an apparent growth. Almost all blockbuster movies are being released in 3D at the cinema, but the 3D format has been met with mixed opinions by the consumers. Some argue that 3D is the future, while others believe that the 2D format is enough for an appreciated movie experience. Through a qualitative survey, twenty participants with 3DTV in their homes answered questions regarding their experience of 3D movies and what improvements they desire. We suggest that 3D film creates immersion, realism and effects that 2D films can´t handle.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur åtta fritidshemsbarn samtalar kring fiktiva berättelser som de tagit del av via film och hur de relaterar de fiktiva berättelserna till sitt vardagsliv.Den frågeställning som vi har utgått ifrån är:Vad pratar barn på fritidshem om när de samtalar kring film med fiktivt innehåll?Vad säger barn om hur fiktivt innehåll som de sett på film relaterar till deras vardagliga liv?Vi har använt oss av kvalitativa forskningsintervjuer för att få fram empiri att analysera. Vi har utgått från barns perspektiv då vi har försökt att se världen ur barns ögon. Dalen (2008) skriver att forskare ska försöka uppmärksamma barns perspektiv om forskaren vill få kunskaper om barns upplevelsers och tolkningar av världen. Thomson (2008) skriver att studier som handlar om barn bör innehålla barns perspektiv då de är experter inom området.I vår metod har vi använt oss av gruppintervjuer då barnen i samspel med varandra fick chansen att prata om sina tankar och åsikter.
