Educational objectives

The course Cinema and New Media aims to explore the dynamics of exchange, contamination, and convergence between cinema and the emerging expressive forms of digital new media. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, the course investigates how cinema has influenced — and in turn has been transformed by — other media languages: from television to video games, from streaming platforms to social media, all the way to immersive experiences in virtual and augmented reality. The goal is to understand how traditional boundaries between media have become increasingly porous, giving rise to new narrative, aesthetic, and productive forms.

Educational objectives

The course aims to provide students with critical, theoretical and practical knowledge and skills in the field of theatrical dramaturgy, with an integrated approach that takes into account both the historical-contextual dimension and the structural and analytical dimension of the theatrical text.

In particular, the course aims to

Acquire historical and cultural knowledge relating to the evolution of theatrical dramaturgy, with particular attention to the productive, organizational and cultural contexts that have influenced its form and content.

Understand the processual and artisanal nature of dramaturgical work, understood as a creative practice intertwined with the economic, social and cultural dimension of the theater.
Develop skills in the structural analysis of theatrical texts, through the study of fundamental elements such as the construction of conflict, the articulation of characters (protagonist, antagonist), the objectives and arcs of transformation, narrative and dialogic dynamics.

Apply theoretical and methodological tools to the reading and critical interpretation of exemplary dramatic texts, with targeted exercises that stimulate analytical autonomy and written elaboration.

Deepen the interactions between dramaturgy, direction and actor culture, in particular through emblematic case studies.

Stimulate a metacognitive reflection on the relationship between theory and practice in theatrical production, promoting a critical awareness of the entire production-dramaturgical process.

At the end of the course, the student will be able to:

historically and culturally place a theatrical text;

recognize and describe the main dramaturgical structures;

use the tools of dramaturgical analysis independently;

write coherent and articulated written contributions, capable of combining theoretical reflection and practical observation;

critically interpret the role of dramaturgy within the theatrical machine and the cultural system.

Educational objectives

the course will address the topic of writing for the theater from a laboratory perspective. It will involve dealing with narrative techniques and artistic writing applied to the world of performance. The concrete and artisanal characteristics that dramaturgy for the stage requires will be analyzed, dealing at the same time with literary writing and the cinematographic script. A series of fundamental exercises and writing proposals will be addressed, pen or keys in hand, to be able to create that degree of "evocation" of reality and "stage presence" that performance requires. We will ask ourselves why theater still in the 21st century has a strong irreducible vitality and generates a circular energy between those who "tell" and those who "listen".

During the lessons, reference will be made to some theoretical aspects of dramaturgy, in general terms, in particular for the format of dramatic writing, for the use of spatiality and temporality, for the construction of the character and his position (point of view) in relation to the plot, for the use of the linguistic register and for the comparison between the "fictional world" recreated in writing and the "real world" where we live in everyday life.

Educational objectives

The course aims to provide the fundamental principles of screenwriting, applying them to a series of exercises to be carried out in class. The student will also be required to work on screenplays provided by the instructor to learn how to analyze narrative structure and dialogue construction. Finally, the student will be asked to engage with the productive and economic aspects of screenwriting.

Educational objectives

At the end of the course, which focuses on several case studies each year, students will have acquired the conceptual, methodological and cultural framework for analyzing the aesthetic and dramaturgical transformations of opera when it meets the stage and its media; for understanding the material and technological features of the various media of music theatre; and for mastering some crucial moments in the recent history of opera.

Educational objectives

The course aims to highlight the film distribution network

Educational objectives

The course is aimed at students who wish to delve deeper into some elements of the economics of cinema, services and audiovisual products.

Starting from the different interpretations of the concept of audiovisual market, the fundamental turning points and differences in the distribution and exploitation of works will be addressed, without neglecting the initial stages of development and production.

Important elements of the course will be some workshops dedicated to interdisciplinary insights - for example copyright, labor law in the audiovisual sector, co-productions, sustainable production - and the testimonies brought by professionals and managers of the sector.

The topics of available financial resources, contractual relationships and the different forms of distribution in Italy and internationally will be discussed, through the reading of available data and with the help of specialized publications.

Educational objectives

The course aims to highlight film distribution, which is a phase in the process of distributing and presenting a film to the public. Film distribution is often handled by an independent company, a subsidiary, or occasionally an individual, who works as the final agent between a production company or some intermediary agents, and an exhibitor, in order to secure the screening of the producer's film on the movie theater screen. In the field of film, the term "distribution" refers to the marketing and circulation of films in theaters.

Educational objectives

The credits in "Other Training Activities" (workshops and internships) are an essential component in the training path: these activities allow you to acquire and deepen skills directly related to the world of work, which integrate those provided in the other courses. It is important to plan them in advance, since the CFU of laboratories and internships are necessary to obtain the qualification, which for the master's degree in "Writings and productions of entertainment and media" (6 cfu)

Educational objectives

Students can enter the remaining exams that you were unable to select, or they can enter those outside the faculty for the purposes of your career and/or that you are interested in;

Educational objectives

The candidate produces an original research work with experimental character, backed by appropriated illustrations, by which he demonstrates that he has acquired the ability to manage and to elaborate on his own the skills gained during the theoretical and methodological study, with special regard to the search of bibliographic sources, data collection, management and processing of data, critical thinking and capacity of personal elaboration.

Educational objectives

The aim of the course is to equip students with a foundational understanding of the theories and practices involved in managing, preserving, and promoting archives, museum collections, and library resources related to theatre, dance, music, and cinema. It also encourages the development of a critical awareness of the role that archives, museums, and libraries play in studying, sharing, and safeguarding the cultural memory of the performing arts.

Educational objectives

The course aims to provide students with an in-depth understanding of modern and contemporary dance through a critical and informed use of materials available for historiographic analysis. These include notebooks, librettos, musical scores, choreographic notations, sketches, drawings, films, videos, diaries, oral and written testimonies, reviews, and scholarly literature. The methodological approach is phenomenological in nature and focuses on the analysis of individual choreographies as well as the creative and pedagogical work of key figures within modernist and postmodern trends (from Duncan to Forsythe, from Laban to Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker, from Cunningham to Emio Greco).

Educational objectives

The aim of this course is to learn and practice a research methodology related to the use of primary sources (dance librettos, iconography, archive materials, periodicals, treatises) and the issues concerning the dance historiography in the 18th and 19th centuries. Students will be asked to test the knowledge acquired through a personal research work on a topic to be agreed with the professor, to be discussed in a seminar form and then developed in a paper. The work is not obligatory but recommended.
