Kinematografija na Kitajskem

Jordanov, Vedran (author), Istenič, Saša (mentor)

Diplomsko delo preučuje razvoj filmografije na Kitajskem v pionirskem obdobju vse do konca obdobja nemega filma. Kot pionirsko obdobje štejemo obdobje spoznavanja filmske tehnologije in postavljanje prvih smernic za nadaljni razvoj. Kitajci so se s filmom prvič srečali leta 1897 in ga navdušeno sprejeli. Razvoj njihove filmografije gre skozi številne faze od prvih poskusov oziroma posnetkov pekinških oper, preko eksperimentalnih filmov, do razvoja celovečernih filmov vrhunske kvalitete. Proces razvijanja ni minil brez političnih in družbenih turbulenc, toda filmski ustvarjalci so na začetku imeli srečo, da so se nemoteno posvečali razvijanju svojega filmskega sloga brez posebnega vmešavanja vlade. Kitajska ni izumila filma in je normalno, da so začetki tesno povezani z zahodom, vendar je v le dvajsetih letih ustvarila svoj slog in svoje žanre ter postala center filmografije v Vzhodni Aziji. Javnost je različno sprejemala funkcijo novega medija. Eni so vztrajali pri čisto zabavnem aspektu filma, drugi so zahtevali moralno-etično čistost in družbeno odgovornost medija. Na razvoj filmskega sloga sta imela ogromen vpliv kitajska tradicionalnost in še posebej sodobna socialna gibanja dvajsetega stoletja. Tako so razvili danes značilne kitajske žanre, kot so družinske drame, wuxia, kostumske drame, družbeni (socialne) filmi. V svojih filmih so se veliko ukvarjali z družbeno odgovornostjo in spreminjanja tradicionalnih družbenih slabosti.

Abstract

This work examines the development of Chinese filmography from its pioneering days until the end of the silent film era. We consider the pioneering period as the time when they first learned about the technology and set the first guidelines for future progress. China was first brought into contact with film in 1897 and was accepted with enthusiasm. The progress of their filmography has gone through several stages, from the first attempts with Beijing Operas, to experimental films and full-length feature films. The process of their rise was not without political and social turmoil, but in the beginning the filmmakers were fortunate to be able to devote themselves freely and without particular government interference to the progress of their style. China did not invent film, so it is normal that the beginning is closely linked to the West, but in just twenty years it has been able to create its own style, its own genre and become the center of filmography in East Asia. The public reacted differently when it accepted the new media-function. Some insisted on the pure entertainment aspect of film, others on the moral and ethical purity and social responsibility of media. The development of China's form of filmmaking had been strongly influenced by its traditionalism and the modern social movements of the twentieth century. This has led Social Movies to the development of famous genres like Family Dramas, Wuxia, Costume Dramas and Social films. In their films, they have dealt a lot with social responsibility and changing the social weaknesses in their traditionalism.
