摘要
文章分析了马尔科-卡尔瓦尼(Marco Calvani)的《从这往上看》(The View from Up Here)中等级分明的视觉构图和取景,认为其精心安排的构图在两位主角--一位美国家庭主妇和一位叙利亚难民--之间营造了一种隐喻性的权力失衡。低角度摄影机位置和幽闭恐惧症框架的反复使用为影片增添了一层内涵,强调了在美国人眼中处于次等地位的难民的低下地位。
Hierarchical textual compositions and (post-)colonial framing in The View from Up Here
The article analyses the hierarchical visual compositions and framing of Marco Calvani’s The View from Up Here and argues that its carefully structured compositions create a metaphorical imbalance in power between the two main characters, an American housewife and a Syrian refugee. The repeated use of low-angle camera positions and the claustrophobic framings adds a connotative layer to the film that emphasizes the subaltern refugee’s inferior status in the view of the American.
期刊介绍:
The main purposes of SFS are: To stimulate ongoing research on individual short films as a basis for a better understanding of the art form To provide a flow of cutting-edge teaching materials that can be used in courses in which short films are either studied or produced, at film schools or universities To offer fresh inspiration to filmmakers and other professionals working with short films in connection with festivals, national film institutes, regional film centres, etc. While the principal focus is on the short fiction film, other classic forms – such as the short documentary, the short experimental film and the short animation film – are also covered from time to time. In each issue, two productions are singled out for comprehensive presentation and close study. For each film, the reader will find production data, an interview with the director, a shot-by-shot breakdown of the film with a still illustrating every shot, a number of peer-reviewed articles that illuminate the film from a variety of perspectives and a link enabling subscribers to view the film.
