1. Borderless aeasthetics : the new uglySandra Jovanovska, 2024, magistrsko delo Opis: Through the lens of ugliness, the purpose of this Master’s thesis is to explore a potential model of a new unrestricted aesthetics. I, hereby, refer to an aesthetics beyond its canonical order, an individualistically-driven scheme of standards or perhaps no standards at all. All can be simplified with Eco’s quote on the opposition of the beautiful and the ugly: ’A beautiful nose shouldn’t be longer than that or shorter than that, on the contrary, an ugly nose can be as long as the one of Pinocchio, or as big as the trunk of an elephant, or like the beak of an eagle, and so ugliness is unpredictable, and offers an infinite range of possibility’. While the aesthetics of beauty has already positioned framework of rules in regards to proportion, symmetry, and harmony, the aesthetics of ugliness has no particular guidelines and limitations whatsoever. Unlike the beautiful, what we perceive as ugly doesn’t have its lawfulness, because for a long time in the history of art, ugliness was just the opposite face of beauty. As a consequence, the ugly embodies a big category of undetermined standards in visual arts and culture, which leads to it becoming a large unmapped territory of boundless autonomy. The ugly is in that context the key to facing and unleashing our phenomenological fears of bleak dark deformed realities that lie unchallenged and unaddressed on account of ugliness’ taboo status. Thus, when familiarised, I believe ugliness in art has a powerful impact, a quality that we have to yet begin to understand to get a full image of ourselves, for if we rely on beauty, as we did for such a long time in history, we are depriving ourselves of a true holistic proportion in art.

4. European Film Co-productions with a Focus on Southeastern EuropeBoris Matić, 2022, magistrsko delo Opis: In this master thesis I shall deal with European film co-productions with an emphasis on the functioning of this form of film production in 6 countries of Southeast Europe. Starting from
defining the concept of co-productions and their types, short history, agreements that provide the legal framework for their establishment all the way to sources of funding from European
public national and supranational funds, broadcasters and production incentive systems. In other words, in this thesis I explain how this joint production adventure works in Europe, as
well as in the surrounding countries where I myself work as a film producer. The starting point of the paper is that the authors and producers hail from countries with low audiovisual capacity,
and due to high film production prices and lack of funding sources in these countries, they are almost forced to turn to international co-productions for more ambitious film projects. Through
the analysis and production study of Father, I speak about the application of the co-production model in filmmaking and the use of almost all types of available European sources of financial
closure, which is a successful example of cooperation between producers and filmmakers and collaborators from several European countries. In the practical part of my master’s thesis, I
briefly deal with the making of my short fiction film Thursday. Ključne besede: film, production, co-production, southeast Europe, region, agreements, sources of funding, funds, national, supranational, budget Objavljeno v RUNG: 01.09.2022; Ogledov: 2052; Prenosov: 92

5. Films in the closet : exploring the problematics of LGBTQ representationCarolina Silveira, 2022, magistrsko delo Opis: Prvi del magistrskega dela raziskuje zgodovino reprezentacij LGBTQ skupnosti v filmu in medijih, s ciljem postavitve avtoričinega praktičnega projekta v kontekst, da bi ugotovili, na katere načine se le-ta vključuje v stereotipe in v katerih primerih se nahaja zunaj njih. Osredotočeno večinoma na ameriški in delno tudi na evropski film, pričujoče magistrsko delo ne predstavlja izčrpne študije teme, temveč gre za subjektivno izbiro določenih vrhuncev, ki so označili LGBTQ reprezentacijo v zgodovini filma ter pomembnih tem v odnosu do praktičnega projekta. Magistrsko delo izpostavi filme skozi desetletja in dogodke gejevskega gibanja z namenom kontekstualiziranja reprezentacije skupnosti v njenem družbeno-političnem presečišču.
V svojem drugem delu avtorica razloži ustvarjalni proces filma (s)election, ki predstavlja praktični del magistrske naloge. Na koncu se oba dela povežeta. Ključne besede: Homoseksualnost, LGBTQ, Film, Reprezentacija, Razkritje, Zgodovina LGBTQ Filma Objavljeno v RUNG: 08.08.2022; Ogledov: 2557; Prenosov: 115

6. Winning wars with films : (storytelling for artistic activism)Sagar Gahatraj, 2021, magistrsko delo Opis: This study mainly examines the prospect of utilizing the power of cinema to resolve
humans’ conflicts. The research begins by analysing the psychology of human brain;
how human brain functions, how belief systems are created, and most importantly, what
is the cause of human disputes. The thesis then investigates the possibilities and pattern of psychological change. After uncovering how psychological change works, the
research paper dives into comparing human psychology with the psychology of storytelling. The findings from this comparison are used to determine if storytelling can induce psychological change. At this point, the study is confronted by historical evidences, where the power of storytelling was exploited to control and manipulate people. However, upon further investigation on this issue, the duel power of storytelling is discovered, which suggest that story can be both propaganda and cure for propaganda.
With these findings in hand, the research continues on its main pursuit; finding out if
films can resolve conflicts. To do so, the thesis presents the history of film-making and
its association with storytelling from its beginning. The research also looks into the
power of film-making, and question if the power of film-making can be combined with
the power of storytelling for artistic activism. The first part of thesis concludes by
summarizing the findings of the study. The second part of the thesis analyses a short
film, In The Nation Of Car Lovers, which was a practical part of the Master’s thesis.
Finally, the thesis concludes by comparing the findings of the theoretical part to its
utilization in the practical part of the thesis. Ključne besede: Human Brain, Psychological change, Storytelling, Propaganda, Film-making, Activism Objavljeno v RUNG: 13.10.2021; Ogledov: 2922; Prenosov: 121

8. Zvijačnost Uma : magistrsko deloNataša Lanieri Shakespeare, 2019, magistrsko delo Opis: Kipar Jakov Brdar upodobi Slavoja Žižka kot eksplozivno napravo meteor. Nebesno
telo pridrvi v atmosfero, zagori in zasveti z bleščečo svetlobo. Usmeri se v izbrano tarčo z
namenom, da jo raztrešči. Vse v skladu z Lacanom: vsaka simbolna struktura mora
vsebovati element, ki uteleša trenutek nemogočega, okoli katerega je nameščena. To je
hkrati nemogoče in realno. Metafora meteor poantira Žižkovo intelektualno prodornost,
njegov eksplozivni levičarski aktivizem, njegovo napoved novega komunizma. Ključne besede: eksplozivna, naprava, meteor, Lacan, Žižek Objavljeno v RUNG: 11.03.2019; Ogledov: 5009; Prenosov: 175

9. Temna slika : Podoba, zgubljena v temiRawan F. A. Alhourani, 2018, magistrsko delo Opis: Motivacija za to magistrsko delo je bilo avtoričino iskanje
podobe; prav določene podobe, izgubljene v najglobljih predelih
našega uma. Iskanje podobe, ki je nikoli nismo videli ali
doživeli; podobe, ki je še nihče nikoli ni videl, ter ob tem
izzvati čutila in človeško naravo v danem trenutku.
Namen dela je iskati odgovore in si zastaviti vprašanja o tem,
kako zelo ljudje zaupajo svojim čutom, ter se spraševati o
njihovi zmožnosti, da spremenijo svoje vedenje in svoje rutine.
Opazovati, ali si za nekaj sekund drznejo ugasniti luč in s tem
pridobijo sposobnost, da vidijo na drugačen način. Ne preseneča
dejstvo, da se ljudje močno zanašajo na svoj vid, zaradi česar
preostala čutila postanejo nekako manj pomembna in zanesljiva.
To delo z naslovom "Temna podoba – podoba, ki smo jo izgubili v
temi", raziskuje moč podobe pri manipulaciji množice in vlogo
medijev pri nadzoru in pranju možganov pripadnikom nove
generacije.
V magistrskem delu avtorica najprej predstavi projekte "Kumra
1", "Kumra 2" in "Kaj vidiš v temi?" – poskuse, izvedene v prvem
in drugem letu raziskovanja, skozi katere predstavi analizo in
opazovanje svojih eksperimentov. Ti predstavljajo začetek
raziskovanja čutil v popolni temi, ki je nato pripeljalo do
"Sestavljanke", praktičnega dela te naloge, ki se sprašuje o
medijski manipulaciji z uporabo podobe. Ključne besede: temna, nejasna, mračna, brez svetlobe, grozljiva, grozna, žalostna, zlobna, pomanjkanje svetlobe, slepa, globlje v odtenkih, ne svetla, skrita, skrivnostna, skrivnostna, brez moralne ali duhovne svetlobe, maligni, temničas, negativni, pesimistični, neprosvetljeni, temačnost, črnina, neznani, medijski nadzor, temna slika, družabni mediji, medijska manipulacija, propaganda, stereotip, pranje možganov Objavljeno v RUNG: 10.12.2018; Ogledov: 4771; Prenosov: 198

10. Otroci v slovenskem celovečernem filmuMery Gobec, 2018, magistrsko delo Opis: Magistrsko delo Otroci v slovenskem celovečernem filmu obravnava razvoj otroškega in mladinskega slovenskega filma. Pri tem se sprašuje predvsem, v kakšni vlogi nastopajo otroci, katere ideološke misli podajajo in na kakšen način je njihova umestitev v zgodbo indikator političnega, socialnega in družbeno-kulturnega stanja v našem prostoru. V magistrsko delo je vključen tudi kronološki pregled otroških in mladinskih filmov, ki veljajo za najpomembnejše v slovenski kinematografiji. Ugotavljam, da se je idejna sporočilnost slovenskih celovečernih filmov z otroki spreminjala glede na ustaljen politični sistem. Če so obravnavani filmi vse od 50. let dalje pogosto podajali misel o partizanskem junaštvu in pomembnosti protiokupatorskega boja (nekateri obravnavani filmi pa izražajo idejo kvarnega vpliva tujcev in drugačnih, do česar v magistrski nalogi zavzemam kritičen odnos) so v 70. in 80. letih že izražali kritično misel o tedanjem sistemu. S prihodom 80. in 90. let (in »nove dobe«) je očiten vse pogostejši vpliv ameriške pop kulture in hollywoodskega filma. Seveda ne v vseh primerih, a vendar je očitno, da se mnogi filmi tovrstnega žanra še vedno držijo manj in bolj opaznih kompleksov, ki se jih slovenski otroški in mladinski film očitno še ni uspel popolnoma znebiti. Ključne besede: Otroci, otroški film, mladinski film, konstrukt otroške čistosti, individualizem, kolektivizem, družbene vrednote, humanizem, kapitalizem, socializem, izobrazba, medgeneracijski nagovor, futurizem, eskapizem v ameriško kulturo, otroci – odrasli, moški – ženska, pristno slovensko Objavljeno v RUNG: 29.11.2018; Ogledov: 5023; Prenosov: 176
