The recording of image sequences on film, in other words makingmovies, is one of the principal activities in visual media. The moviewas developed for scientific purposes by Edward Maybridge. Hiscontinuous still photographs of the natural movements of animals andhumans not only provided the basis for further research, but alsorepresented the first instance of the ethnographic film. Subsequentproductions may be classified broadly as either fiction or documentaryfilms.With the development of portable devices for visual recording,the ethnographic film has come to be regarded as an integral part ofanthropological and ethnographic research. Ethnographic filmmakinghas yet to emerge as a definite genre within the field of anthropology.This paper examines certain features unique to ethnographic filmproduction, with particular emphasis on the process of shooting froman anthropological perspective. The ethnographic approach tofilming in field situations is also addressed.Theory and practice is a prerequisite to ethnographic film production,and the cameraman should therefore be a qualified ethnographerwith enough technical knowledge and experience to operate theequipment. Further, an understanding of the history of film ethnographynot only establishes the context within which production takesplace, but also often gives rise to new approaches to research design.In addition, before entering the field, the visual anthropologist isobliged to study general features of production, including patterns offilming, reportage, footage film, direct film, and cinema verite .In conclusion, emphasis has been attached to problems confront-ing the filmmaker under actual field conditions. This encompassesthe composition of the film staff as well as the responsibilities implicitin shooting under diverse social and environmental conditions. Noteven the production of a technically fine work can justify ignoringrelationships between the people filmed and the research team.

北米と欧州の美術館等における作品と展示方法の考察並びに舞台芸術と映像作品制作の実践から、デジタル映像表現の話法や技法、リテラシー、多角的体験について調査を行った。作品や展示がマルティモーダルな経験構造をとることと、作品制作の過程と社会還元において操作性や身体性、制作技法を共有することの重要性を明らかにし、デジタル映像表現が科学映像における表現と受容の可能性を拡げることを示した。
