微影人的自我修养 from Coursera

目前市面上有越来越多的微电影技术与流程方面的教程，通过它们你可以知道拍微电影大致的制作流程与技术，但这样你接触的只是微电影创作的皮毛。因为，拍微电影，从根本上说我们面对的是人：演员、工作人员、观众这些活生生的人，而人比机器要难把握多了。因此，微电影创作是一种独具风格、需要深入复杂人性与感受的深层次独立创作。

本课程授课教师本着“授人以鱼，不如授人以渔”的原则，直面现有微电影实践教学中“只重技术与流程、不重观念与思维”的普遍性问题，总结多年的创作体验和授课心得，将课程分为“亲临微电影创作现场” 、 “ 勤修微影人观念”、“勤养微电影思维” 的渐进式三大模块，通过项目创作和情境再现的直观形式，带你从了解微电影的拍摄与流程的实质开始，逐步深入微电影的剧本创意与写作、角色塑造、主题表达、叙事方式、风格形成等方面真正的要点与难点，让你真切领会到微电影的创作精髓；同时，深入研究微电影与电影在本质上、创作上的异同，提炼出微电影创作人在“初心、情怀、风格、思维、结构、细节、人物、细节、流程”等各个方面所应具备的素质与观念，并引导微影人将这些微电影素养的培养作为长期的目标坚持下去，使它变成你的自身素养的一部分，促使你达到对客观世界与对象的更高境界的感受与把握。从而在这些扎实修养的基础之上，哪怕只给你一个手机，你也依然创作出独具魅力的微电影“大片”。

授课原则：

不讲某一个软件、某一个设备的具体的操作方法。

不讲非常完善的理论体系。（因为这些内容相关书籍或在线教程有很多，教师会在必要的时候给出相应的资料、教程链接以供补充学习与参考）

不提供技术词典。

专注从创作中得来的、接近创作本质的心得、体会、思考。

坚持在创作与思考不断提升自我修养。

绪论：微影人的自我修养

拍微电影,常常源于内心的一种冲动,一种转瞬即逝的情感,说到底其实是疼痛。当故事真的触动到疼痛的时候,拍微电影就变成了一种义无反顾的力量。这种义无反顾、欲罢不能的感觉,正是这门课首先要带你去寻找的。因为,只有以此为前提,才可能尽快进入对“微电影创作观念和微影人的自我修养”有较为正确认识的“微影人”的入门状态,从而认识到:我们任何人,只要带着内心最纯真的表达诉求,就可以从任何地方起步,幸福地拍微电影。

亲临微电影创作现场

本模块通过项目创作和情境再现的直观形式,带你进入微电影初学者的片场,了解微电影的拍摄与流程、常见误区。本模块的课程视频有着情景剧、PPT字幕等多样化内容呈现方式,并在课程视频中穿插提问、并辅以项目式的课程作业,以有趣的项目驱动、真实的情景体验打造课程的趣味性与可视性,帮助你提高课堂效率、更好地体验微电影创作现场。

勤修微影人观念

本模块专注于微电影创作人在“初心、情怀、风格”各个方面所应具备的素质与观念,并引导微影人深入认识自我、挖掘自我的“初心、情怀、风格”偏好,并把对这些微电影素养的关注作为长期的目标坚持下去,使它变成你自身素养的一部分,促使你达到对自我以及客观世界与对象的更高境界的感受与把握。在此观念基础之上,形成个人微电影的主题与风格目标,并通过下个模块的学习与训练进行实质性地付诸行动:形成剧本与PPM,可能的话,加以拍摄。

勤养微电影思维

在前面课程的基础之上,了解了个人微电影的主题与风格偏好之后,在本模块中,继续以项目式逐步深入微电影的剧本创意与写作、角色塑造、主题表达、叙事方式、细节把控等方面真正的要点与难点,让你在真实的个人微电影项目创作中真切领会到微电影的创作精髓,形成带有个人印记的微电影剧本、PPM,可能的话,拍摄成微电影成片; 与此同时,你还可以深入体验微电影与电影在本质上、创作上的异同,培养并形成个人的微电影思维,并不断在创作与思考中逐渐完善与超越。
