Visual conception of a film adaptation of the novel A FALL OF MOONDUST by Arthur C. Clark. The science fiction genre and its visual adaptation in examples from world cinematography.
Bouška, Petr ; Nekvasil, Ondřej (advisor) ; Masník, Boris (referee)
The science fiction genre has been popular in filmmaking since it first appeared. It brings views of the world which do not exist. Film is an ideal medium to materialize these fantasy worlds. However, owing to its popularity, the contours of the genre are fading and the term itself is losing its original meaning. Under the heading of science fiction we can, therefore, come cross films which do bring fantastic views and visions, but which have very little to do with science as such. The aim of the theoretical part of this work has been to sift out those film titles which belong to the science fiction genre in the stricter sense of the term science-fiction, focusing on the narrow segment of sci-fi films either taking place in space, or which are marginally related to space. Since this work deals mainly with the visual aspect of sci-fi films, a number of selected titles have been used to introduce their visual appearance. The films have been selected based on my own preference, within the definition of the term science fiction.
The outcome of the theoretical part served as one of the sources for the visuals in the practical part of the work. The practical part provides visual designs for a film adaptation of a novel by A.C. Clarke, A Fall of Moondust. It provides visual designs of scenes and set decorations which aim to stress scientific reliability of depiction and strive to place the film among pieces of high scientific accuracy.
This work may serve the needs of filmmakers interested in a realization of this particular piece, or to those creators, whose task is to adapt a different piece of science-fiction. The latter filmmakers may make use of the references to a number of interesting and inspirational films in the theoretical part of this work.
