  • Analytické Přístupy K Filmové Hudbě Na Příkladu Díla Vladimíra Síse
    MASARYKOVA UNIVERZITA Pedagogická fakulta Katedra hudební výchovy Analytické přístupy k filmové hudbě na příkladu díla Vladimíra Síse Disertační práce Brno 2019 Vedoucí práce Autor prof. Michal Košut, Ph.D. Mgr. Ondřej Musil Bibliografický záznam MUSIL, Ondřej. Analytické přístupy k filmové hudbě na příkladu díla Vladimíra Síse. Brno, 2019. Disertační práce. Masarykova univerzita. Vedoucí práce: prof. Michal Košut, Ph.D. Anotace Cílem práce je vytvoření kompilace různých přístupů k analýze filmové hudby. Předpokladem kvalitního hodnocení jsou nejen znalosti jejího vývoje, ale také její specifické funkce v rámci filmu, k nimž se řadí i rovina sémantická nebo psychologická. Vybraná teoretická východiska jsou poté konfrontována s výsledky analýzy hudebních filmů Vladimíra Síse. Dvoufázová analýza spočívá v hudebním a filmovém rozboru filmů a v jejich vzájemné komparaci s důrazem na změny funkce hudby a jejího obsahotvorného potenciálu. Výsledky analýzy poukazují jak na typické znaky hudebního doprovodu filmů, tak na jeho specifické užití v Sísových filmech. Významným výstupem práce je také její didaktický přesah. Včetně kapitoly o pedagogických aspektech filmové hudby je jím prostoupena i interpretace výsledků analýz. Výstupy práce proto mohou posloužit jak vědeckým, tak vzdělávacím účelům. Klíčová slova filmová hudba, hudební film, hudební analýza, filmová analýza, vizualizace, hudební vzdělávání, Vladimír Sís Abstract The aim of the thesis is to create a compilation of various approaches to film music analysis. A prerequisite for quality evaluation is not only the knowledge of its development, but also its specific functions within the film, which also include the semantic or psychological context. The selected theoretical background is then confronted with the results of the analysis of music films by Vladimír Sís.

The insistence that all facilitators have doctorates in the humanities is, on the other hand, a requirement that the National Endowment for the Humanities builds into all its educational program grants. Some of you have had to ask for exceptions to this requirement, and in all instances, we have approved these exceptions because you have come up with people who are both experienced teachers and also have a special interest in film, literature, and/or aging. In short, we are fully confident that you will all do an excellent job introducing your students to this new, timely, entertaining and yet extremely important subject, one that promises to have a direct personal impact on its participants.
