I den här uppsatsen undersökte jag hur filmfotografer tänker kring användning av kamerarörelser. Syftet var att få bättre förståelse kring tankarna bakom valen av en specifik kamerarörelse. För att undersöka detta har jag gjort en intervjustudie med verksamma filmfotografer. Resultatet visade att filmfotografer i allmänhet använder kamerarörelser för att få fram en viss förbestämd känsla i filmen och att kamerarörelser oftast är något som bestäms långt innan inspelning och väljs med stor omsorg.

The intent of this paper is to examine the conditions for Swedish filmmakers with the short film format as final goal. Through a qualitative study we investigate what paths there are for distributing short films through the digital platforms available today. We do this by interviewing some of the most experienced and successful short film creators in Sweden and one of Sweden's main financier in film creation, to provide as just image of the branch as we can. Short films with financing from the state and regional financiers rarely has any focus on economic gain. They are rather intended to help form filmmakers and give them an opportunity to establish themselves prior to further filmmaking. The main digital platform in Sweden is SVT Play, witch is much based on the fact that SVT is part of sponsoring a big part of the government financed short films. The greatest problem we found is the availability for short films through digital platforms, since SVT Play most often has exclusive rights and only buy viewing rights during periods. When you want to distribute your short film, the most important aspect is the context, the film should not only appeal the audience it reaches but it also has to appeal the audience in the situation where it reaches them. / Vi undersöker förutsättningarna för filmskapare i Sverige med kortfilmsformatet som slutmål. I form av en kvalitativ studie tar vi reda på vilka vägar det finns för att distribuera sina kortfilmer med hjälp av dagens digitala plattformar och hur dessa nyttjas. Detta görs genom att intervjua några av Sveriges mest erfarna och framgångsrika kortfilmsskapare och en av Sveriges största finansiärer av filmskapande för att skapa en så korrekt bild av branschen som möjligt. Det kompletteras med en kvantitativ enkätundersökning ämnad att skapa en generell bild av svenskars konsumtion av statligt och regionalt finansierad kortfilm. Kortfilmer med statligt och regionalt stöd har sällan något fokus på ekonomisk vinning. De är snarare ämnade att forma filmskapare och ge dem en möjlighet att grunda inför fortsatt filmskapande. Den huvudsakliga digitala plattformen är SVT Play, på grund av att SVT är med och sponsrar en stor del av de statligt och regionalt finansierade kortfilmerna. Det största problemet vi funnit är tillgängligheten för kortfilmer på digitala plattformar, då SVT Play oftast har exklusiva rättigheter och bara har visningsrättigheter periodvis. Då man vill sprida sin kortfilm handlar det främst om kontexten, att filmen inte bara ska tilltala publiken den når utan också tilltala publiken i den situation publiken är i då den når den.

Abstract The objective of this artistic research has been to reflect on the conditions forfilmmakers in Sweden and identify expectations, contradictions and subjectpositions available for myself within this discursive field. As a point of departure,I use three letters of rejection that I have received during my two years as astudent at the Stockholm University of the Arts. The first rejection centers what experiences can be imagined for me, as animmigrant filmmaker. It juxtaposes experiences made in Iran and Sweden asopposite and impossible to combine. The second rejection is in relation to contentand story-telling, which raises questions about translation as a dimension of filmproduction. In this section, I argue that while it is my intention to make experiencesof hyper-absurdity in Iran penetrable for an audience in Sweden, too muchconcern over the audience may deteriorate the artistic process. The third rejectionconstructs myself and my fellow director as immigrant others, scrutinizing ourability to make a film in Swedish, about Swedish subjects. In this section, Iexplore the meaning of diaspora and how it shapes the conditions of filmproduction. The artistic research is summarized in the final section where I suggest anumber of strategies forward in order to move away from the taken-for-grantedrole of immigrant filmmaker(s). Key concepts: documentary film, diaspora, translation

This paper analyzes and interprets the visual communication used to portray the police detectives in the documentary film Uppdrag: Skomakarligan. Four scenes where the police are the main focus and which all have different purposes in the plot of the film are picked out. The four scenes are then studied through a social semiotic method based on Bill Nichols' theories about the documentary voice, and in combination with visual storytelling strategies by Bordwell & Thompson. The filmmaker's power over the image of reality in documentaries is discussed concerning the interpretation that is made. The study results in the police detectives being portrayed as very dedicated to their profession but also shows the human side of them. Filmmaker Hildebrand's fascination with the police detectives, as shown by the narrator, is linked to the result and isn't deemed to be entirely problematic. Media production: In 1975 EMF (Engelholms Musikförening) organized the music festival Musikfesten Tullakrok, and for over 30 years this festival was the highlight of the year for many in Ängelhom. However, in 2008 the festival had to be shut down, but now 16 years later EMF is back and wants to revive Musikfesten Tullakrok for 2024. The purpose of this project was to showcase different members’ perspectives on organizing the music festival 16 years later and provide insight into the history of the festival from 1975 to 2008. A project by Elliot Lauritsen and Ella Hall.
