Discussion

More than a century ago, namely with the advent of cimenatography, began the epoch of audiovisual culture with specific language based on the other non-verbal communicative processes. Considering the effective influence of the screen interactions (and visual processes on the whole) upon a human being they are taking a dominating position today. In the last years the volume of the television broadcasting has increased by 600 times. The generation whose consciousness from the very birth was formed by TV and computer has already grown up. It is natural that in the last years non-verbal language is becoming a major mechanism in struggle for the influence upon human consciousness. It is essential to join efforts of teachers, psychologists, methodologists, cinematographic historians and professionals of cinematography and television in working out in shortest time the basis of state standards of media education. Otherwise we will loose our chance.

Universities, film clubs, libraries, cultural institutions, systems of film review can form the environment that makes it possible to proceed with working out of the model of media education based on the documentaries review. Because of the lack of media educational state standards film clubs can become a part of extra curriculum education and an experimental basis for developing of the techniques based on the non-fiction films reviews when setting state standards of media education. Professional teachers, specialists of cultural sphere and all who love and know how to watch documentaries can be organizers and leaders.

This is the topic for the main discussion dirung the festival.
