Photography as a part of complex communicate in the news of czech dailies
Jarošincová, Jitka ; Lábová, Alena (advisor) ; Šoltys, Otakar (referee)
My diploma thesis deals with respecting the journalism ethics by two most read general- interest newspapers in the Czech Republic - Mlada fronta DNES and Hospodarske noviny, when using complex communicate including a news photo. My research sample contained just breaking news (home and world) published nationwide in March, 2014. A relationship between meanings of particular parts in complex communicates (the headline, the caption, the photo and the article) and has been my variable that I was searching for within the sample. As all the parts work together in building one sense, which should represent a reality, I suppose, that meanings of these parts should show a relationship of harmony and substitution within one complex communicate. I used semiotic analysis to analyse meanings within a communicate, both denotation and connotation level. I applied my knowledge of social and visual semiotics, semantics and pragmatics to explain the meanings of individual signs. At the end of my research I compared results of my analysis to outcomes of Magda Polmanova's research - a former Charles University student that dealt with almost the same topic as me in her bachelor thesis, analysing the same dailies however from 2011. The findings of: How many times have these dailies published complex communicates that...

The theoretical part of the study focuses on defining the role of President in the Czech political system, and outlines the historical context.

Visual Representation of Ukraine Crisis in Respekt Magazine
Trhoň, Ondřej ; Láb, Filip (advisor) ; Topinková, Martina (referee)
This work analyses how values of Respekt weekly magazine reflect in its photojournalistic coverage of beginning of Ukrainian crisis. Through simplified content analysis method I quantified different formal and content properties of ten galleries published during the Majdan protests and tried to interpret how they are used by photographers to influence their viewers and what is their role in medial framing of the conflict. Apart from creating a coding table and interpreting the results, I led interviews with two main Respekt photographers. Cumulative analysis of those resources revealed that Respekt's coverage is not impartial and in fact favorises protesters while almost not portraying the other side of conflict.

The Role of Smartphone cameras in Czech Photojournalism
Sýsová, Kateřina ; Lábová, Alena (advisor) ; Teplá, Jana (referee)
In my bachelor thesis The Role of Smartphone cameras in Czech Photojournalism I am going to analyze how Czech photojournalism was influenced by modern mobile phones or so-called smartphones. This topic was examined by several graduates abroad. Anyway I did not succeed in finding any piece of work in which someone examined the influence of smartphones on the work of Czech photojournalists in detail. This reason combined with my interest into modern technologies and its influence on journalism meant for me the clear choice of this topic. In the first theoretical part I am going to describe the development of modern mobile phones and their penetration in everyday life as well as I am going to focus on applications which can make taking, editing or spreading pictures for photojournalist easier. In the next part I am going to focus on the phenomena of convergence. I am going to describe the process of photographical evolution as well as the democratization of photography in the last part of the theoretical section. I am going to complete the practical unit with help of compiling a case study in which I describe Czech professional photojournalists who use their phones for taking photographs. The last part will be complete by an interview with the launcher of the web iPhonefoto.cz and photographer Tomáš Tesař, who...

In this bachelor thesis, I will attempt to describe and document a very important sociological issue in modern Czech history: expulsion of the German population from Czechoslovakia after the Second World War. The main method that I will be applying is visual sociology. Obtained knowledge from the research are classified in the historical and sociological context overlapped to the present. I have chosen specific time and place so that I can demonstrate issue of the expulsion of German population from the Czech borders area. I realize the extent of this issue and also that it is not possible to analyze the issue as a whole on dozen of pages. Still, I think that based on the findings of this research, readers will be able to imagine conclusions in a broader context and that this knowledge reader will be able to create an image of this issue in the present and its impact on the landscape and society. For the main part of this thesis I consider my photographs of the place, on which this work reports. On the basis of the theory of visual sociology, I consider these pictures the most important part of this work. On the basis of these photographs, the reader (or viewer) stores the information that is absorbed and his subjective perception of these images creates feel and the views of the problems with real...
