Voto Finale

The course aims to provide basic knowledge of the history of Italian cinema and television and an understanding of possible forms of representation, documentation and enhancement of the landscape.
In addition, knowledge of the forms of audiovisual language, development of the ability to analyze images and audiovisual materials, and the ability to conduct research on sources of film criticism and archival documents are objectives of the course.

The course will alternate between a historical path dedicated to the evolution of media, with particular reference to Italian cinema and television, and an analytical path dedicated to forms of landscape representation. Case studies will develop the ability to understand how visual/audiovisual productions of national scope, but not only, contribute to delineate the imaginary of a landscape and constitute an economic driver in a territory.
After a historical part of the evolution of the media landscape, we will continue with case studies on the forms of representation with particular attention to some landscapes (urban, seaside...) and finally we will carry out an in-depth study on cine-tourism as a tool for the construction of the tourist experience.
