The course gives students an insight into the relationship between digital games, animation and film. Digital games are referred to here as, among other things, interactive animation. In addition, contemporary phenomena such as Speedrun, Let's play and other formats of annotated gameplay in the form of streaming or recording are analysed. A separate excursus is devoted to E-sports and other forms of transferring the moving image into contemporary social life and culture.
