Accepted Paper:
Training the science filmmakers
Yasuhiro Omori
( National Museum of Ethnology & the Graduate University for Advanced Studies)
Paper short abstract:
Nowadays, the demand for science communicators has been growing in both the natural sciences and humanities. I will introduce the educational practices of film-making and discuss the possibility of scientific films as a method of recording the research, both the outcomes and the researchers in person.
Paper long abstract:
Since 2001, I have been holding the seminar for ethnographic film-making for the course of graduate students. The seminar has been participated by the students of humanities as well as by those of natural science. It has been intended to not only record the outcomes of the scientific research, but also focus on the researchers in person who practice that research. Although the natural science tends to be apart from the human emotion, filming researchers can breathe the personal aspects to science which is originally conducted by human beings. In my presentation, I would like to discuss how to take advantage of science film-making with examples.
