Abstract(s)
Narrative art is as old as human kind and assumes
itself as a fundamental element of everyday life. In
this sense, since a narrative is a story that presents
a diegetic universe composed of real or imaginary
events, lived by fictional or true beings in a given time
and space, this paper’s objective is to establish and
present some thought about the video competition
held by the School of Education from Viseu as a
laboratory for narrative creativity. This initiative, which
has already held twelve editions, integrates itself within
the sphere of the institution’s cultural activities and it
is an encouragement space for short cinematographic
creations. In parallel, it aims to stimulate the talent, the
creativity and the quality of the work submitted. In this
contest, the students are invited, individually or in small
groups, to create a short film with a maximum duration
of 10 minutes, in Portuguese or in English and authors
are free to propose the theme. The genres accepted
in the competition are fiction, documentary and
animation. The analysis of this experience allows us to
list several positive aspects, such as the added value
of the academic competition of short films as a mean to
motivate and encourage Portuguese cinematographic
production within an academic context, as well as to
allow the development of skills in filming, editing and
post-production by students from different study cycles.
