Some questions...

...I think (numbered!) about before attending the lectures in ten minutes:

1. What should an anthropology of film research?
2. Whichmethods should anthropologists use in researching film?
3. What kind of films should be researched?
4. Where and how can anthropologists learn filmmaking?
5. What does a documentary contain of?
6. A database of anthropological film: the when, where and why´s?
7. Film and aesthetics: How do they work in anthropology?
8. Aesthetic and Gender: How do they interact?
9. Behind the camera - biased?
10. Mass Media: How can documentaries reach a wider audience?

Since film is a kind of media and some films are related to mass media, I thought this article might be helpful:
