  • PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES of the CREATIVE PROCESS Ways of Learning and Teaching Film and Audiovisual Art
    PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES OF THE CREATIVE PROCESS Ways of learning and teaching film and audiovisual art Alain Bergala revolutionized how the art of filmmaking is taught through the concept of a "pedagogy of the creative process". Considering the widespread practice of what had been called "audiovisual literacy", that is, the acquisition of knowledge on the use of audiovisual language, Bergala advocated for a more active form of teaching, one in which viewers would have to return to that time prior to the images and the sounds, when all possibilities were still open. The paradigm shift introduced the notion that the viewer's motivation, emotion and desire could be a driving force behind learning and the possibility that viewers might potentially become creators. The seminar "Pedagogy of the creative process" aims to serve as a space for meeting and reflecting on how film and audiovisual art is taught, the starting point for which will be covered in the first session: the paradigm shift first introduced by Bergala for teaching cinema in schools. The second session will be a reflection on the role of film schools and universities in teaching cinema, from the point of view of theory and practice. In this regard, the recently inaugurated school, the Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola, marks a pivotal moment in its break with prototypical schools that typically have taken a 20th century approach to film, one being called into question today. Any reflection on teaching the creative process would hardly be complete without a consideration of the interconnections that teaching audiovisuals has made with the social sciences and critical teaching methods.

    PROGRAM ABSTRACTS FOR THE 15TH TRIENNIAL SYMPOSIUM ON AFRICAN ART Africa and Its Diasporas in the Market Place: Cultural Resources and the Global Economy The core theme of the 2011 ACASA symposium, proposed by Pamela Allara, examines the current status of Africa’s cultural resources and the influence—for good or ill—of market forces both inside and outside the continent. As nation states decline in influence and power, and corporations, private patrons and foundations increasingly determine the kinds of cultural production that will be supported, how is African art being reinterpreted and by whom? Are artists and scholars able to successfully articulate their own intellectual and cultural values in this climate? Is there anything we can do to address the situation? WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23, 2O11, MUSEUM PROGRAM All Museum Program panels are in the Lenart Auditorium, Fowler Museum at UCLA Welcoming Remarks (8:30). Jean Borgatti, Steven Nelson, and Marla C. Berns PANEL I (8:45–10:45) Contemporary Art Sans Frontières. Chairs: Barbara Thompson, Stanford University, and Gemma Rodrigues, Fowler Museum at UCLA Contemporary African art is a phenomenon that transcends and complicates traditional curatorial categories and disciplinary boundaries. These overlaps have at times excluded contemporary African art from exhibitions and collections and, at other times, transformed its research and display into a contested terrain. At a moment when many museums with so‐called ethnographic collections are expanding their chronological reach by teasing out connections between traditional and contemporary artistic production, many museums of Euro‐American contemporary art are extending their geographic reach by globalizing their curatorial vision.

And if the moonlight in its wild frenzy Is joined by some melody Then you must watch out For a woman must be there about. A woman must be there about, made Of music, moonlight and feeling And life won’t let her be, so perfect is she.

Cinema Novo: Brasil. the New Cinema of Brazil, begins October 1. and continues through I October 17th. Nine feature-length films;, the work of eight young directors; who represent the New Wave of Brazil^ will be shown along with a selection of short subjects. Adrienne Mancia, Assistant Curator, Department of Film, assembled the program. In the past seven years, the Brazilians have earned i+0 international awards. In Berlin, Genoa and Moscow. Brazilian film retrospectives have been held in acknowledgement of the vigorous Cinema Novo that has taken root in that country. Cinema Novo of Brazil has had a stormy history. The first stirring began in the early 50*8 with the discontent of young filmmakers who objected to imitative Hollywood musical comedies, known as "chanchadas," which dominated traditional Brazilian cinema. This protest found a response araong young film critics who were inspired by Italian neo- realism and other foreign influences to demand a cinema indigenous to Brazil. A bandful of young directors were determined to discover a cinematic language that would reflect the nation's social and human problems. The leading exponent of Cinema Novo, Glauber Rocha, in his late twenties, stated the commitLment of Brazil's youthful cineastes when he wrote: "In our society everything is still I to be done: opening roads through the forest, populating the desert, educating the masses, harnessing the rivers.

    List of films considered the best From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Films considered the greatest ever) Page semi-protected This list needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be chall enged and removed. (November 2008) While there is no general agreement upon the greatest film, many publications an d organizations have tried to determine the films considered the best. Each film listed here has been mentioned in a notable survey, whether a popular poll, or a poll among film reviewers. Many of these sources focus on American films or we re polls of English-speaking film-goers, but those considered the greatest withi n their respective countries are also included here. Many films are widely consi dered among the best ever made, whether they appear at number one on each list o r not. For example, many believe that Orson Welles' Citizen Kane is the best mov ie ever made, and it appears as #1 on AFI's Best Movies list, whereas The Shawsh ank Redemption is #1 on the IMDB Top 250, whilst Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back is #1 on the Empire magazine's Top 301 List. None of the surveys that produced these citations should be viewed as a scientif ic measure of the film-watching world. Each may suffer the effects of vote stack ing or skewed demographics. Internet-based surveys have a self-selected audience of unknown participants. The methodology of some surveys may be questionable. S ometimes (as in the case of the American Film Institute) voters were asked to se lect films from a limited list of entries.

  • Brazilian Fantasy, History, and Culture Fall 2015
    HISTORY 387: Brazilian Fantasy, History, and Culture Fall 2015 Professor Ben Cowan Course Time and Location: Email: [email protected] Tuesday, 4:30-7:10PM Office: Robinson B-377D Planetary Hall 212 Office Hours: Th 3-5 and by appt COURSE DESCRIPTION Samba! Sex! Soccer! What do these stereotypes about Brazil reflect? Where do they come from? The Portuguese phrase país do samba e do futebol—“the country of samba and soccer”—expresses a sometimes ironic self-consciousness about these hallmarks of identity and perception of what Brazil is, both in Brazil and beyond. So, then, what is Brazil—or Brazilianness? In this class we will think about the ways in which people and cultures in Brazil have developed, been represented, been fantasized about, and why these things are so. We’ll explore where samba comes from and how it came to be Brazil’s “national” dance; why Brazil has so often been identified with sensuality and sexuality, especially sensual femininity; and what does make soccer important in Brazil. We’ll think about how and why ideas about Brazilianness range from deep, medieval Catholicism to oversexed libertinism; from “savage” and “underdeveloped” to urbane and techy; and from “Latin” to African to indigenous. At the heart of our stories will be questions about sexuality, gender, race, nation-building, and identity—we will use sources ranging from novels to sociological studies to films to analyze the ways these tropes have shaped the idea of Brazil, within and without.
