Cinema in the typewriter. The phenomenon of fictious scenario in Czech lands
Felcman, Jakub ; Klimeš, Ivan (advisor) ; Bregant, Michal (referee)
Bibliografický záznam Felcman, J. Kino v psacím stroji. Fenomén fiktivního scénáře v českém prostředí. (Rigorózní práce). Praha: Univerzita Karlova v Praze, Filozofická fakulta, Katedra filmových studií, 2011, 153 s. Vedoucí práce Doc. PhDr. Ivan Klimeš, PhD. Abstract This thesis is dedicated to a specific type of literary film art called rather innovatively in the paper as "a fictive screenplay". It is a literary work of art which uses different forms established as a basis for a transformation of a written art to a film: film thesis, libretto, literary or technical scenario. So called "fictive scenarios" are different from other creations of this type primarily by the apparent intention of the author to see them as a complete piece of art in its printed form without any ambitions or actual need for subsequent realization of its film version. The composition of the paper is based on a study of the relevant materials and is divided into three parts. The first part covers a compilation of texts collected by screen editor Kurt Pinthus in the 1910's (Das Kinobuch, the oldest Czech "fictive scenarios"). The second part covers film-related literary art pieces created by the Czech avant-garde in the 1920's. (Fictive scenario as a form of the Czech avant-garde.) The third part (Fictive scenario as a surrealistic playground)...

Strejcovský, Jan ; BREGANT, Michal (advisor) ; BERNARD, Jan (referee)
This thesis deals with a diverse relationship of Vratislav Effenberger to film. It describes the role, which he played in shaping the czechoslovakian postwar surrealism. On his only realized film "Study on the fraction of reality", this work demonstrates concrete methods, that he found substantial for the cinema.It follows his engagement in Czechoslovak film institute and analyzes his pseudo-film scripts issued in a book "Cynicism of life and brutality of reality". The aim of this thesis is to outline Effenberger's passion for film as a significant part of inexhaustible legacy of this yet unappreciated poet, art theorist, historian, screenwriter and the most important writer of Czech post-war surrealist generation.

Eschatology of the Film Strip
Týmal, František ; ČIHÁK, Martin (advisor) ; BREGANT, Michal (referee)
The film industry has been recently undergoing a significant technological change, which has made the traditional film strip an obsolete medium. The thesis called "Eschatology of the Film Strip" tries to define the basic differences between the photochemical and the electronical tradition of the moving image, and critically asses the transformation of the market. The thesis draws attention to many paradoxes caused by the pressured implementation of digital technologies, and argues for the classical photochemical film as a creative tool in it's own terms, able to find it's habitat in the context of fine arts. The author reflects upon the possibilities of new uses for the film strip and introduces the research project Kinoaparat.cz, focused on enlightenment in the field of traditional film art and technology.

The Ethics of Film Restoration
Frodlová, Tereza ; BREGANT, Michal (advisor) ; BENDOVÁ, Helena (referee)
The ethical principles of film restoration pose a complex problem which has never been satisfactorily resolved. In the past few decades, the situation has become even more complicated due to the advent of digital technologies that are capable of overcoming the limitations of the photographic medium on the one hand; on the other hand, the new possibilities highlighted the lack of widely accepted ethical principles that would set the film restoration process into a more general theoretical framework. This diploma thesis deals with the basic principles of restoration (authenticity, reversibility and transparency) and the possibility of their application in film restoration. At the same time, it considers the transformation of archiving and restoration practice in the digital age and focuses on some ethical issues emerging in connection with the spread of digital technologies in this field. The thesis, however, does not present an unequivocal solution to the problems that have been discussed for decades; rather, it suggests possible points of view on selected ethical principles and provides space for further analyses or discussions.

Principy alternativní stavby příběhů
Marinović, Ivan ; Bregant, Michal (advisor) ; Roraback, Erik (referee) ; Jech, Pavel (referee)
Během studií jsme se učili, jak porozumět pravidlům psaní scénáře a jak je aplikovat na tradiční strukturu dramatu. Krom uspořádání do tří aktů existují také alternativní epizodické způsoby konstruování vyprávění s odlišnými pravidly. Přesto řada úspěšných epizodických filmů stojí na tradiční trojaktové stavbě. Mým cílem bylo popsat principy prolínání struktur a zkoumat, jak jsou uplatňovány v režijním zpracování filmů vysoké umělecké kvality. Ve čtyřech současných revisionistických westernech byly nalezeny čtyři možné principy, které je možné uplatnit také při psaní scénářů pro filmy jiných žánrů. Tyto filmy ukazují, jak je možné se vyhnout scenáristickým klišé a zároveň potvrzují, že aktuální sociální témata mohou být zkoumána v rámci žánrových filmů, o které masové publikum stojí.

Light Into The Flesh / Flesh Into The Light
Babuščák, Ladislav ; Pospiszyl, Tomáš (advisor) ; Bregant, Michal (referee) ; Šimlová, Štěpánka (referee)
LIGHT INTO THE FLESH / FLESH INTO THE LIGHT explores symbols of evil, sin and redemption in the tv series and the movie Twin Peaks. It is not a critical assessment of David Lynch's body of work. Characters and their actions as well as plots are used as symbols which are then explained based on Genesis, the first book of the Old Testimony. Martin Buber's philosophical insight is also used to shed light on the subject.
It is not the aim of this analysis to introduce David Lynch's work from a critical standpoint or from a standpoint of film theory. The aim is to introduce director's key theme, which is one's fight for his soul (essence) whilst facing fear, hesitation, failure but also love, faith and hope.
