Abstract

On-screen creativity is a single cultural-aesthetic system, operating with the language of visual and audiovisual images, the basic source of which is inseparably linked with such categories of reality as space and time. Their special position is determined by the fact that they are attributes of the existence of life forms and without their reflection any on-screen creativity becomes impossible. At certain stages of its historical evolution, screen creativity grew by new typical formations. The photography appeared first, then the cinema, and later on television, in the depths of which, after a while, the video was parted. Each new type at the level of space-time relations with the reality preceeding the camera formed its own special principles of screen narration. At the same time, they depended on the features of the new technological system, and on the dominant modes of visuality on an individual and collective levels. In this process, the cultural-aesthetic progress in on-screen creativity was reflected. The general logic of the relationship of the author of the screen work and the displayed reality in terms of its on-screen chronotope organization has evolved from a single, instantaneous discretization of it, to a total space-time continuity. From the author’s point of view, the more speculative picture of this process looked as follows: the photographic chronotope is characterized by a single spatial appearance of the displayed object and its temporary immobility (static); the cinematic chronotope is characterized by an editorial multiplicity of forms of the displayed object, which recreates conditional space and conditional time on the screen; the television chronotope is characterized by a simultaneous multiplicity of forms of the displayed object, which recreates the conditional space and real time on the screen; the video chronotype is characterized by a continual multiplicity of shapes of the displayed object, which recreates real space and real time on the screen. It is obvious that the evolution of screen creativity stimulated the development of new creative possibilities in terms of the spatial and temporal organization of audiovisual images, which in turn contributed to the establishment and enrichment of specific cultural aesthetic formations. Their common aspiration was focused on achieving natural integrity and authenticity in presenting life forms on the screen.
