Jonas Mekas
Hlaváčková, Hedvika ; POSPISZYL, Tomáš (advisor) ; RŮŽIČKOVÁ, Alice (referee)
The subject of this theses are the films of Lithuanian avant-garde artist, organizator and original interpreter of life, Jonas Mekas. Specifically I'm dealing with the development of his work from the complex film-diaritical sagas to video pieces presented on his web side. I'm exploaring where does he see the diference between the way he captures life and what we call documentary film, what does a reality means to him and how does he get closer to it's essence with the help of his camera. I'm observing how did the recent technical development effected his work - the arrival of video, computers and subsequently internet. I'm trying to understand where does diary-film stand in the frame of history of cinema and where is it's place in the context of the contemporary art scene.

Portel, Viktor ; KUBICA, Petr (advisor) ; RŮŽIČKOVÁ, Alice (referee)
The paper the Method of Errol Morris concerns itself with the inspirational approaches of this American director used when making films based on interviews. It reflects the traditions which inspired Errol Morris and uses specific examples from his films to present the inspirational moments of his work. Those are two - the unique method of recording "talking heads" with the aid of a device known as the Interrotron, and the similarly interesting form of director's cuts of the statements thus procured.
