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...

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.

On the basis of the theory of visual sociology, I consider these pictures the most important part of this work.

Oulová, Jana ; Láb, Filip (advisor) ; Teplá, Jana (referee)
The thesis "A content analysis of photographs in Pestry tyden and LIFE magazine" analyses two successful magazines of the first half of the 20th century. Intentionally, two periodicals of different origin (Czechoslovakia and the United States) are compared to investigate the assumption that the different origin has major influence on the overall concept and focus of the periodicals. The subject of this study is the selection of volumes of 1937-1945, the period of the greatest success of both magazines. The study aims not only at describing the contents of the periodicals but also at situating them into social, political and art-historical context. The study is based on a theoretical part which gives a general overview of photojournalism and tracks the slow beginning of journalistic photography and the birth of the first illustrated magazines. This part also deals with technological development which made possible quality image journalism. The study does not leave out numerous restrictions, e. g. censorship, which were a frequent point of struggle for the magazines' authors. Key words: illustrated magazines, magazine photography, photojournalism, documentary photography, war photography, censorship, propaganda
