Seminar "From Cinema to Action"

NCCA "Tea Factory" opens a discussion platform "at the tea", a series of educational projects.

For those who watch cinema, see in it the vectors of the development of society, they want to use cinema as a method of transforming reality. The discussion platform "At the Tea Room", offers to consider the movie through the prism of the text.

The theme of our first seminar is “From Cinema to Action: Cinema is the Engine of Social Transformation”.

The purpose of the first seminar is to develop a joint strategy for the use of cinema for educational and enlightening purposes, the creation of a cinema club, its program and structure.

Questions that we pose to participants:

1. The need for social cinema for a change in society. What social problems does social cinema solve?

2. How to interest an ordinary viewer in a movie that "does not go on the screens of an ordinary movie theater", that is, "how to wean a viewer from a blockbuster?" Is there a need for this (+, -) and how to do it.

3. Cinema clubs in Odessa. How do they function? Their basic concept? The problem of "pirated" cinema (shows a cinema club a downloaded film or "consulting" with a distributor, thereby reducing the show program). How to show movies in movie clubs?

Within the framework of the seminar, we will show you the short film Raul Ruiz “Dog Talk (18+)” and discuss it using the modern technique of modern media schools “Critical Thinking”.

Also, the “box of ideas and suggestions” of the discussion platform is open.

Project moderator: Valya Koshelnik, will share her experience of cooperation with the literary group STAN, as well as talk about the seminar “From Cinema to Action” in the city of Lugansk ) http://tisk.org.ua/?p=19487 )
