Abstract

This study Analyzed dining space used in a Japanese colonial period TV drama. By watching internet-channel services with replay capability, dining space scenes were collected and analyzed using scene captions. The relative importance of each scene was determined according to the exposure time per episode. By analyzing individual images in detail, the relative importance of dining space in a Japanese Colonial period drama was determined. In addition, the direction of dining space utilized in a Japanese colonial period drama will be presented according to deduced results in the conclusion. The quantitative results of this analysis were as follows: 1) The ratios of dining space exposure were 19% for ‘Capital Scandal’. Even though dining space exposure in the drama was 19%, time and costs were limited, so it follows that there were limits to the drama production aspects. 2) Drama production puts more emphasis on images, so there were few examples of exaggerated settings used for dining space scenes. 3) Though there were limited situations, these were enough for the public to identify the effort to produce a dining space. These results suggest that even when only producing a dining space, there is now an opportunity to consider more if the periodical aspects of the drama are examined.
