"This course introduces the sociological perspective, distinguishing it from the common sense and discourse through a deconstructive and critical approach towards the social phenomena, with a specific emphasis on media arts such as cinematography. Therefore, the module aims to familiarize students with main sociological concepts and theories - socialization, stratification, inequality, identity and culture - which are centrally positioned among the individual-groups binomial.

In this context, current key social phenomena are approached through a sociological lens, where the main concepts are intertwined with the agency/structure debate, which presents an ongoing critical challenge to the portrayal of these social phenomena in media arts, such as digital cinema.
Consequently, by fostering an analytical stance towards current key social phenomena, the sociological perspective presents an added value for the creation and production of digital cinema in contemporary societies. As the deconstructive and critical approach allows the recognition and exploration of multiple viewpoints towards the social construction of reality, it becomes increasingly important to incorporate a strong ethical perspective.
Accordingly, ethical principles and procedures inherent to the development of social research are discussed, in order to highlight the possibilities of their transposition and adaptation to the specific context of creation and production of digital cinema.
