本文论证了米哈伊尔·巴赫金的文学理论在发展对话和非殖民电影制作实践中的效用。以我们以研究为主导的纪录片《埋葬的一切》为例,我们通过在电影制作人、研究人员和参与者之间实施共同创作的对话方法,挑战传统的电影制作层次结构,其中主要作者为导演/制片人。我们解释了巴赫金在对话、时空、超越、复调和参与性思维方面的工作如何提供制作和电影工具和方法,以承载影片中南非创意人员(Zizipho Bam、Sindiswa Busuku、Haroon Gunn-Salie 和 Dizu Plaatjies)的独特和平等的声音,从而始终保持对项目的共享和平等投资感以及对集体的道德责任感。所有被埋葬的东西展示了四个参与者在一天的时间内在开普敦及其周边地区的家、工作地点、灵感地点和艺术装置之间移动,讨论他们的工作、想法和经历。在过程和产品中,我们展示了我们的共同创作方法如何支持去殖民电影制作实践,并受到非殖民电影制作实践的支持,并为捕捉电影艺术和人文研究提供了一个有用且可复制的模型。
This article argues for the utility of Mikhail Bakhtin’s literary theories in developing dialogic and decolonial filmmaking practices. Using the example of our research-led documentary film,All That Is Buried, we challenge traditionally hierarchical structures of film production in which primary authorship lies with the Director/Producer, by implementing dialogic methods of co-creation between filmmakers, researchers and participants. We explain how Bakhtin’s work on dialogism, chronotope, transgredience, polyphony and participative thinking provides the production and filmic tools and methods to host the distinct and equal voices of the South African creatives featured in the film – Zizipho Bam, Sindiswa Busuku, Haroon Gunn-Salie, and Dizu Plaatjies – maintaining throughout a sense of shared and equal investment in the project, and ethical responsibility to the collective.All That Is Buriedshows the four participants discussing their work, ideas and experiences as they move between their homes, places of work, sites of inspiration, and artistic installations in and around Cape Town over the course of a day. In both process and product, we demonstrate how our co-creative methods support, and are supported by, practices of decolonial filmmaking, and provide a model useful and replicable for capturing Arts and Humanities research on film.
