Abstract(s)
No âmbito do desenvolvimento do Projeto Final, no Mestrado em Cinema e Fotografia – Especialização em Cinema de Ficção, ministrado na Escola Superior de Media Artes e Design (ESMAD), do Politécnico do Porto (P.Porto), a discente propõe-se a assumir o cargo de Realização na curta-metragem de ficção O Peso da Pena.
O filme consiste numa curta-metragem de ficção que retrata o estado de espírito de Adelaide, uma idosa que passa pelo luto da morte da filha. O luto e a idade avançada, contribui para um estado de solidão profunda e na perda da vontade de viver. Quando uma pomba bate à sua janela, esta tenta imediatamente ajudar o animal. A partir daí, Adelaide volta a ter um propósito para viver, apaziguando a sua mágoa relativamente à perda da filha.
Considerando que a Realização consiste num pilar essencial para o resultado de um filme, a estudante compromete-se em compreender o modo como se desenvolve a construção das personagens e ambientes que contribuem para a perceção da narrativa.
Assim sendo, o maior objetivo residiu em estabelecer uma relação de empatia entre a Protagonista e o espectador através da caracterização da mesma, nas suas diversas camadas.
Visa-se alcançar imersão nas personagens e nas suas histórias, conferindo a profundidade de sentimentos, meta que foi alcançada com uma boa gestão de equipa e seus variados departamentos, para que a estética, não se afaste da história, e seja sua ‘aliada’.
Em termos teóricos, procurou-se desenvolver-se analisar o conceito de Protagonista no que diz respeito à Direção de Atores, tendo como base a pesquisa Antropológica concebida durante a fase de pré-produção.
As part of the development of the Final Project, within the Master’s Degree in Cinema and Photography – Specialisation in Fiction Film, offered at the School of Media Arts and Design (ESMAD), Polytechnic Institute of Porto (P.Porto), the student proposes to take on the role of Director in the fiction short film O Peso da Pena (The Weight of the Feather). The film is a fiction short that portrays the state of mind of Adelaide, an elderly woman mourning the death of her daughter. Grief, together with her advanced age, contributes to a profound sense of loneliness and a loss of will to live. When a pigeon strikes her window, she immediately tries to help the animal. From that moment, Adelaide regains a sense of purpose in life, finding solace in her grief over her daughter’s death. Considering that Directing is an essential pillar in determining the outcome of a film, the student commits to understanding how the construction of characters and settings contributes to the perception of the narrative. Thus, the main objective lies in establishing a relationship of empathy between the Protagonist and the viewer, achieved through the character’s layered characterisation. The aim is to create immersion in the characters and their stories, endowing them with emotional depth, a goal achieved through effective team management and collaboration across departments, ensuring that the aesthetic dimension remains aligned with and supportive of the story. On a theoretical level, the project sought to analyse the concept of the Protagonist in relation to Actor Direction, drawing on anthropological research carried out during the pre-production phase.
