Such a relationship is assumed in the most varied fields of art—one does not teach what one does not practice— the case of cinematography assumes particular interest in a context where, through technological transformation but also through the changes and circumstances of the economic and artistic activity itself where this activity develops, the exercise of the activity has profoundly transformed. This, of course, calls for an equivalent transformation of the teaching methods and processes. This theme is particularly relevant in the context of this special issue where the relationship between cinema and technology is so present.application/pdfporopenAccessAUDIOVISUALCINEMACINEMATOGRAFIAENSINOAUDIOVISUALCINEMACINEMATOGRAPHYTEACHINGarticle
