Kovandová, Alžběta ; TŘEŠTÍKOVÁ, Helena (advisor) ; KRATOCHVÍL, Jaroslav (referee)
FACT (Foundation for Art and Creative Technology) is a charity media arts centre in Liverpool, UK. It is an institution where multiple art and creative activities take place. FACT consists of three galleries, a cinema, a video-production department and a café. Furthermore, many workshops and social activities take place here as FACT aims to engage local communities in its programme. This is achieved through collaboration with local artists, who create their artwork with the support of FACT, and who engage various demographic groups such as children, war veterans or the elderly in their work. One of those programmes is the Veterans in practice (VIP) which aims to help the veterans. In collaboration with Liverpool’s veterans and FACT, the director Katie Davies has created a film called The Separate System about veterans who have found themselves in prison after leaving the armed forces.
This bachelors’ thesis shows the history and operations of FACT and its respective departments. In the second part, it addresses the topic of war veterans and shows how the collaboration between FACT, the artist and the veterans works on an example of The Separate System film and activities of the Veterans In Practice programme. This thesis is based on not only literature and internet sources but also on interviews between the author and employees of FACT and the director Katie Davies.

Pavel Koutecky and his film works
Počtová, Jana ; Kubica, Petr (advisor) ; Třeštíková, Helena (referee)
What in fact is an author?s style? It is the point of view from which an
author sees the given subject. Which style he uses when recording the
action, to which extent he enters into it and tries to influence it, what shooting angles and image interpretation he uses, in what way he works with sound. We can agree upon the fact that only few directors have such a distinct and characterful author?s style as Pavel Koutecký does. He was a director always searching for new possibilities and forms of artistic expression. In my diploma paper I survey his fundamental films and give a general overview of his work.
