Introduction to the legal regulation of Czechoslovak film co-productions between 1945-1970
Bednář, Leoš ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Czesany Dvořáková, Tereza (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the co-production of films in Czechoslovakia from 1945 to 1970. This neglected institute is described and partially analysed on the principle of the three levels of the legal regulation. The first stage are interstate cultural agreements and agreements of cultural cooperation. The most important is the co-production agreement and agreement of cooperation in the area of cinematography with France and Italy concluded in 1968. The second stage consists of the implementation plans and the framework conventions, which extend the provisions of interstate agreements. It is very difficult to trace these plans and conventions in unprocessed archive funds. So the enlisted information are rather fragmentary. The next stage is created by the specific co-production agreements. These agreements are basis for the co-production projects. The last section of the thesis contains several unrealised co-production projects that have not been created because of some political, economic and other disputes.

The idea of a Film Chamber. The Bohemian-Moravian Film Union and continuity of centralizing tendencies in the film industry in the 1930s and 1940
Czesany Dvořáková, Tereza ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Just, Vladimír (referee) ; Szczepanik, Petr (referee)
The key theme of this thesis is the development of the film-industry self-regulation during the years immediately preceding the occupation of the Czech Lands by Nazi Germany and the period of the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. Already in the First Republic (1918- 1939), the association structures were characterized by highly hierarchical relations and encompassed all areas - film production, film distribution and the cinema system. The predominant role was played by film industry associations and the largest unions of film workers. These organizations pressed for the solution of the protracted legislative deficits which complicated the day-to-day operation of the film industry. Starting in the second half of the 1930s, the essential aims of the activities of the film self-regulation included the foundation of a Film Chamber as the central body of Czech cinematography. The guarantor of the future public corporation, and possibly its financier, was to be the government. The views regarding the form of this institution were also influenced by foreign models, including the corporate structures of the Third Reich cinematography. As the authorities were taking their time to act, while the political situation was quickly changing, the film industry associations provisionally centralized their...

Cílem práce je analýza a hodnocení jednotlivých tipů těchto zdrojů, a to především těch, které jsou dostupné v českém, slovenském a anglickém jazyce. Jednotlivé zdroje jsou hodnoceny z hlediska funkčnosti, struktury zdroje a záznamu filmů a osob. Hlavní pozornost je zaměřena na čtveřici nejužitečnějších zdrojů z pohledu autora práce, tedy Internetovou filmovou databázi (http://www.imdb.com), Filmové databáze online, Česko-Slovenskou filmovou databázi (http://www.csfd.cz) a Mezinárodní databázi filmových archivů FIAF. Tyto informační zdroje pak jsou detailně popsány. Práce se dále věnuje menším informačním zdrojům, které jsou unikátní zejména díky svému užšímu zaměření a mapují různé geografické oblasti světa, popřípadě různé žánry a přinášejí aktuální zprávy ze světa filmu. Výsledek práce ukazuje, že kvalitních zdrojů v prostředí WWW je velmi mnoho, proto se autor práce pokouší tyto zdroje roztřídit a vyhodnotit jejich účelnost.

Movie as a medium. The moving pictures as a key to transcendental perception
Muziková, Martina ; Czesany Dvořáková, Tereza (referee) ; Hanáková, Petra (advisor)
Předmětem mé diplomové práce je zkoumání filmu jako specifického media, jemuž je přisuzována možnost navodit v určitých případech až nadsmyslové vnímání. Cílem mého výzkumu je popsat na základě dobových teorií a reflexí výzkumu např. tzv. paobrazu, hypnózy a podobných fenoménů tento význačný aspekt filmu (tj. možný přesun do jiné roviny vnímání), který bývá v současných přístupech opomíjen. Svoji práci záměrně vymezuji přelomem 19. a 20. století (byť s dalšími širšími aktualizačními přesahy), dobou formování moderního diváctví a hledání souvislostí mezi fotografií/filmem a možnostmi nadsmyslového vnímání a zároveň výzkumy podvědomí. Na základě reflexí v dobové okultní literatuře, znovu se vynořujících zpráv o výzkumech funkce oka, soudobých přednášek o hypnóze, dobové beletrie, spiritistických protokolů apod., a za použití metod vycházejících z tzv. nové filmové historie práce směřuje k rozkrytí filmových kódů a postupů, které automaticky dokáží navodit v divákovi stavy rozšířeného či změněného vědomí. Tyto aspekty jsou často dobově významně reflektovány ve svém manipulačním potenciálu (viz expresionistické filmy s motivem somnambulismu, popř. Meyrinkův román Dum alchymistilv, naznačující téma kolektivního ovládání diváků filmovým médiem). Širší dobové kontexty filmu a soudobé úvahy o hypnóze, spiritismu,...
