This thesis develops the method of using textures projected from the perspective of a projection camera, in combination with two-dimensional paintings and threedimensional models, to create digital environments. Past uses have demonstrated effectiveness only for background and midground scene elements with limited camera movement. This work explores how camera animation can be maximized using the projected texture technique onto foreground environment forms. Through several case studies, general guidelines for artists are developed for using camera-based projected textures.

This paper provides a look at the making of a microbudget feature film. It seeks to explain my growth as a filmmaker and an artist, through the challenges, both narrative and practical, that I encountered, as well as provide documentation following the process. Hope for a Thorn: The Making of a Microbudget Digital Feature Film includes elements from each phase of filmmaking, from script and preproduction to the marketing plan. This document shows the tremendous amount of preparation and planning that goes into the making of a microbudget digital feature film.

This study aimed to contest political and cultural stereotypes depicted through the verbal and audio-visual languages used to represent the Rwandan genocide in the films, A Good Man In Hell(2002), Hotel Rwanda(2004), Sometimes In April(2005) and Keepers of Memory(2004). A Good Man in Hell criticised the racism that influenced the international community not to help Rwandans stop the genocide. In Hotel Rwanda, mostly the Tutsis died during the genocide of 1994. Sometimes in April revealed that the Hutu middle class engineered the genocide. Keepers of Memory depicted the gendered nature of the language of genocide and showed that women were silenced at various levels. The films partially succeeded in depicting the Rwandan genocide because the films did not sufficiently foreground the socio-economic factors that created the conditions for genocide to happen. The study suggested that future research on film representations could compare and contrast cases of genocide in Africa. / English Studies / Thesis ( MA (African Languages))

Esta dissertação tem como objetivo o relato das apresentações de Fluidos, o primeiro projeto realizado no formato CineVivo. Trata-se de uma experiência inédita de longa-metragem realizado ao vivo, com captação, edição e exibição simultâneas. Em diversas locações, atores encenam a história de ficção captada por três câmeras. Essas imagens são transmitidas para a edição em tempo real e a exibição para os espectadores na sala de cinema. As apresentações aconteceram no Centro Cultural São Paulo, no Sesc Pompeia e no CineSESC entre o período de maio de 2009 a maio de 2010. Em anexo, encontram-se o último tratamento do roteiro, o DVD com a versão apresentada no CineSESC e as principais reportagens publicadas na mídia. / The aim of this dissertation is to report the exhibitions of Fluids.

Death's Visage is a feature film that was created from an idea developed due to a personal relationship with an artist, who was a professional illustrator and painter. The film follows a young woman who becomes entrapped in a demonic sphere and time zone where her fear is the demon's gratification. She questions the events that are unfolding, which creates herpsychological turmoil, while taking place in the family home that is in an older established middle-class neighborhood. Death's Visage was a micro-budgeted film produced for $20,778. The capital needed for this film meets the University of Central Florida Feature Film Production program's microbudget requirements. This document will explore the utilization of space, diverse components, equipment, cross-trainable talent, and a detailed financial distribution.

The following report details the process of writing the feature screenplay "Cheer Up, Charlie," from inspiration and conception through outline, first draft, and rewrite. I will examine these steps in order to better understand the creative decisions made between the birth of the idea and the current screenplay draft, and reconcile the differences. / text

O argumento cinematográfico para um filme de longa-metragem ficcional é tema central da presente dissertação. Para tal, foi realizada uma pesquisa baseada em dois eixos. O primeiro, o tema do filme (a relação entre os universos feminino e masculino na faixa de meia-idade no Brasil urbano contemporâneo); o segundo, a abordagem cinematográfica (representações da subjetividade no cinema). No século XX, enormes transformações colocaram a mulher em um novo lugar no tecido social. O homem contemporâneo viu seu lugar histórico ser abalado por essas transformações e ainda não se reposicionou. O descompasso entre feminino e masculino colocou num terreno de imensa dificuldade o relacionamento de casal, hoje pouco normatizado por regras sociais. Este tema é tratado em Joana do ponto de vista subjetivo da personagem principal. Na linguagem cinematográfica, a subjetividade, concebida como um nível específico da narração, compartilha com o espectador os olhos e ouvidos do personagem, e/ou o mergulho em sua mente. Algo para além do formal é necessário para que um filme expresse alto grau de subjetividade do personagem. Esta pesquisa examina alguns longa-metragens contemporâneos, localizando como é representada a subjetividade: o ponto de vista ótico, o comportamento do personagem, a expressão do mundo interno, a linguagem. É realizada uma incursão na literatura que compara o monólogo interior à voz dos pensamentos dos personagens no cinema e discrimina outras atividades mentais que no cinema podem ter outras representações além da palavra. As necessidades específicas de expressão dessa história, focalizada pela personagem principal, provoca a discussão sobre a forma da escrita do argumento e roteiro cinematográfico. São examinados textos de Sergei Eisenstein que tratam de estratégias para escrever roteiros, em que a emoção é privilegiada. Busca-se um formato específico para o argumento cinematográfico desta história. Circunscreve-se um campo de representações da subjetividade para o argumento em questão. Apresenta-se o argumento em seu sétimo tratamento. / Treatment for a fictional long-feature film is the central theme of the present dissertation. Research was conducted based on two axes: the first on film theme (the relation between middle-aged males and females living in urban areas of Brazil nowadays); the second on film language (representations of subjectivity in film). The 20th Century saw huge changes with women taking a new place in social life. As a result, contemporary men saw their historic place unsettled and have not yet repositioned themselves. The mismatch between the new male and female social positions brought great difficulties to relationships, which nowadays are regulated by very few social standards. This theme comes up in Joana through the main characters subjective point of view. In film language, subjectivity, conceived as a specific level of narration shares with the viewer the characters eyes and ears, and/or allows the viewer to get right inside the characters mind. Something beyond the merely formal is required for a film to express high levels of character subjectivity. This research examines some contemporary fiction films, analyzing how subjectivity is represented: the optical point-of-view, characters behavior, expressions of characters inner world, characters speech. A literature review compares inner monologue to how characters thoughts are depicted in film. It also discriminates between other mental activities that can be better expressed in film by different representations other than words. The specific expression needs of this story, based on the focal character, bring on the discussion of script and film treatment writing formats. Sergei Eisensteins writings dealing with screenwriting strategies to privilege emotion are examined. A specific format for the film treatment of this story is searched. A range of representation of subjectivity for this film treatment is defined. The seventh draft of the film treatment is presented.
