“…Dudley Andrew also stresses how important it is for scholars to match their work up with cinephiles' activities by recognizing the relevance of intellectual exchanges between the academe and broader public, and the endeavors to conceptualize cinema originally undertaken outside of the academe, but commonly accepted as classical today (2009: 879-888). This also includes attempts made over the course of the twentieth century to introduce cinema into the educational context that have given a significant impetus to the establishment of film studies (see, e.g., Bolas, 2009;Grieveson, 2009).…”

Throughout the 20th century, cinema has played, and, to some extent, continues to play a key role in shaping the social imagination and anthropology of modern human. Nevertheless, as a review of English scholarly literature shows, cinema, unlike art and music, remains a marginal subject of analysis for sociologists. The article attempts to consider the state of sociological reflection on cinema in the context of the cultural turn in sociology in both the international and national contexts. By reconstructing the history of the interaction between sociology, film studies, and cultural studies, the author not only proves the scar-city of interest among sociologists in the analysis of cinema, but also discusses the ways by which socio-logical perspectives were involved in film research at the turn of the 20th–21st centuries, and the potential of the latter for the study of social imagination. A survey of communities of Soviet sci-fi cinema fans demonstrates one possible way of developing of the sociologically oriented program of cinema studies.

“…and besides, the administrative powers who interviewed me stressed, the university was looking for someone to teach the fundamental conventions of artistic cinematic language and not necessarily the high end technology of movie-making. This rare ambition led them to seek a candidate for the rather unusual title I was eventually given: Senior Lecturer in Cinematology (the little-known term "cinematology", deriving from the Museum of Modern Art and US university campuses in the late 1950s [1]. refers to the teaching of cinema as an art form and means of expression, with particular focus on film history, genre and stylistic movements and not so much on the teaching of technical skills, and is entirely dissimilar in meaning to the better-known term "cinematography"), with a salary migration presently being undertaken which will see me eventually assigned the rank of Assistant Professor in Cinematology.…”

Designing and Delivering a "Low-Tech‟ Movie-Making Course at a "High-Tech‟ University

 Abstract-The industry of movie-making has truly become democratized in recent years, by which I mean it is no longer solely the province of those with access to expensive, high-end technology. With this realization I set out in March 2014 to design and deliver a two module syllabus for students at Institut Teknologi Brunei, a leading government university of technology in Asia, at which there were no audio visual production facilities or equipment yet in place. Innovatively, the course would require students to make short movies using nothing more than the technology they already had at hand: the video cameras in their own mobile phones, tablets etc.; the free editing software available on their own computers; the improvised recording studios they could construct in their private living spaces; and their access to free online sites for distributing their work such as Youtube, Vimeo and Facebook. Students were encouraged to use the CGI, 3D modeling, digital audio processing, special effects and motion graphics skills learned in additional computer-based modules on offer at this other-wise 'high-tech' university but were not assessed according to the technical proficiency of their finished AVPs, rather their intentions regarding the conventions and language of cinema were what mattered and what were evaluated. The module specifications, including aims, content and desired learning outcomes -for each of the two modules are described in this paper, as are two representative 'low-tech' movie-making tutorials specifically designed for the course. Index Terms-Democratization of film, low-tech film-making, low-tech movie-making, university film course.
