SHORT COURSE: INTRODUCTION TO VISUAL ANTHROPOLOGYDescription
Drawing on the vast field of Anthropological research we aim to explore the
ambigious relationship between anthropology and film. This begins with
questions concerning the nature of visual anthropology, and what kinds of
films anthropologists might produce and why? What does it mean to claim to
represent reality? What is the relationship between ethnographic and
fictional film making? What does it mean to depict other people in our
films and images, and is there an ethical responsibility to the people a
filmmaker chooses to represent? We will also explore how swift advancements
in technology have altered the course of anthropological film making, and
explore whether this has enable anyone to become an anthropologist.
The short course will introduce you to a diverse range of viewpoints within
the fields of anthropological investigation, including:
- Visual Anthropology
- Digital Anthropology
- The Anthropology of Film & Media
These different approaches will be drawn into conversation with
documentary, Virtual Reality, and other forms of film making.
Please be advised to our short courses sell-out quickly, so early booking
is advisable.
