Jan Svankmajer- inspiration by literature and theatre
Balej, Petr ; KUBÍČEK, Jiří (advisor) ; ULVER, Stanislav (referee)
Summary: The subject of this thesis is an analysis of literary and theatrical inspiration (E. A. Poe, D. A. F. Sade, Ch. D. Grabbe, L. Carrol, V. de l?Isle-Adam, H. Walpole, J. W. Goethe, Ch. Marlowe, Baroque and popular plays, Gothic fiction, fairy tales) in Jan Švankmajer?s short (The Last Trick, Punch and Judy, Don Juan, Jabberwocky, Castle of Otranto, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Pendulum, the Pit and Hope) and full-feature (Alice, Faust, Little Otik, Lunacy). The goal of the thesis is to investigate how these sources of inspiration are handled in the final films, how the original topics are translated to other media and how their meaning is developed or reshaped. As regards theatrical inspiration, the thesis describes the transfer of formal means of expression typical for theatre (black light theatre, masked actors, hand puppet theatre, etc.) into film as well as the author?s relationship to puppets and the crucial impact of this relationship on his work.

Analyze of imiges from the movie Nocturnal Butterfly
Park, Soyoung ; KUBÍČEK, Jiří (advisor) ; DUTKA, Edgar (referee)
Abstract "Nocturnal Butterfly" is short animation film which is directed by Raoul Servais. This animation is Servais's homage to Belgian surrealist Paul Delvaux. This paper concerns comparative analysis between the images of Nocturnal Butterfly about male and female, butterfly, mirror, railway station, automaton, last freeze-frame, and motifs of Delvaux's painting. At first, my research at overall characteristic of surrealism would show that Delvaux's painting shares such characteristic. André Breton who is a key man in surrealism believed that automatism is driving force for artistic creation, so he thought we must look into the unconscious and world of dream to create new aesthetic reality and to comprehend reality just as it is without prejudice caused by reason and rationality. Especially he tried for liberation of the consciousness through automatic drawing, collage and depaysement in surrealistic painting. Delvaux with Magritte used depaysement to give psychological shock to appreciator, so he used mythology as motifs to draw inner landscape unfamiliarly and mysteriously. And though idealized images of women he expressed own desire. After, I would review other works of Raoul Servais. He has expressed own view in various ways by using new approach for each work. Through criticism at human civilization and mythicism of desire he has utopian attitude even though he has criticized absurdity of actuality circumstance. Nocturnal Butterfly has atmosphere fascinating and mysterious but unfamiliar than clear messages. It seems that the atmosphere of the work considerably results from images taken from Delvaux's painting. And Nocturnal Butterfly shows ambiguous and unfamiliar feeling of surrealism using shooting mode of live action films and photographic images. Next, I would review images in Nocturnal Butterfly. Delvaux expressed idealized images of male and female as his central figure motives, but Raoul Servais expressed images of male and female as earthly images in Nocturnal Butterfly. Woman with movement in Nocturnal Butterfly is waiting someone and reacting to eyes from man rather than she is idealized being. But She is also mysterious being. She is dancing with another self appeared from mirror as her double, in fantastic and fascinating time. But when train in reality arrives and a man appears, the time is over. The man wearing a hat in Nocturnal Butterfly is like Delvaux?s self-image mixed with scientist and gentleman. The man watches the object of desire, and possesses the object. Delvaux?s painting as last scene in Nocturnal Butterfly seems to be index of photograph image displayed from both surrealism and movie. So it informs that this animation is not over but continues to a piece of reality. The result of analysis of the images in Nocturnal Butterfly shows that Nocturnal Butterfly is the most fascinating and mysterious new animation with weakened completion of narration unlike other works of Raoul Servais.

Live-action Film Puppet
Máj, Martin ; KUBÍČEK, Jiří (advisor) ; KLOS, Jan (referee)
The topic of this thesis is the live-action film puppet that has evolved from the theatrical puppet. In contract to the animated puppet, the purpose of the non-animated puppet is to create live-action motion. As of now there were no attempts to formalize the theory of this cinematography field. The first step towards this goal is to divide the puppets into the following technological categories: marionette, hand puppet, animatronic puppet and costume and digital puppet. Several types do not clearly fit any of the above criteria and are thus described in the chapter entitled ?atypical puppets?. Puppet types are demonstrated on their example movies. The thesis further deals with the correct placement of the puppet to the scope of the movie which is closely related to the previously established puppet categories.
