cinema trust Saeed Rajabi Froutan, one of the former directors of cinema, wrote: The one-day Iranian cinema conference under the title “Iranian cinema, a look at the future” will be held on the first day of Bahman.
In this conference, although various and scattered topics are discussed, and this makes summarizing the content of the conference somewhat difficult, but the spirit of organizing the conference is worthy of attention. why
1. Promoting theoretical discussions, problem analysis and explaining the current situation, especially in the light of the tremendous developments of new technologies in the image industry, removes the executive directors of cinema from acting and gives them the necessary insight and insight to carry out any planning.
2. The relationship between the university and scientific and cultural centers and associations with the executive bodies is manifested in such conferences and can be the basis for deepening and expanding future scientific cooperation.
3. The scientific and academic image of the head of the cinema organization can guarantee the continuation of such meetings by choosing a well-known scientific secretary so that the cinema can distance itself from the small and large margins of films and their screening.
Previously, in the twelfth government, a similar conference focusing on digital cinema was designed and held, but unfortunately, since then, due to the change of governments and the attitude of managers, it was not possible to continue such meetings. However, the design of the scientific axes of such conferences should be such that it continues at least once a year and is not held in any direction.
4. The presence of speakers from experts and political and academic figures and executive directors, although it is appropriate, but by inviting professors and theorists from other countries, new perspectives can be welcomed and the field of scientific cooperation between the scientific cores of our country with other countries provided
But one point of awarding the research award of the year The calls of the vice-chancellor for technology development and cinematographic studies in the last few years have expanded the scope of cinematographic research in the country, but unfortunately the results of the researches have been used less in practice and in the text of the programs and even the words and analysis of the country’s senior cinematographers. Traces of the results of researches are less seen and heard.
For example, proper introduction and presentation of the best research will inform other researchers and interested parties and highlight the important and innovative aspects of the year’s award-winning research.
This passive and completely administrative approach can fuel the recent one-day conference and turn it into an internal meeting with the presence of a limited crowd.
Holding the conference in the snowy days of Tehran, approaching the time of the festival and the involvement of many cinema agents in preparing the final version of their film in the sound and editing studios and digital laboratories, causes the conference to see a smaller audience of cinematographers.
In addition, there has been no information about the conference and its themes before, and the sudden announcement of the time of its holding may not fully achieve the desired goals of the designers and presenters.
It is obvious that the printing and publication of selected articles of the conference can solve the mentioned shortcomings to some extent.
