film direction/mise en scene Explanation: I think the person in question wants to make an emphasis on film direction. I don't think "szenische Umsetzung" has anything to do with "set design" or something along those lines, but rather with the cinematic term "mise en szene", which means the direction of a film in terms of lighting, camera, actor direction, etc. "Szenisch" or "szenische Umsetzung" within film terminology means simply one unit of a cinematic narrative consisting of one or several shots. What pulls these shots (and later the scenes) together, is the location and action of the narrative. The person who has the final say about how it all goes together is the director. Hope this helps |

Directing cinematic images Explanation: That's the literal translation. "Umsetzung" really only means "realising", though in a TV/theatre/cinema sense, it means "directing" or "conjuring up". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-05-12 21:21:55 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Alternative: Directing film scripts (although that only means diercting films!) |

Theatrical adaptation of films Explanation: It occurred to me when reading your question that szenische Umsetzung sounds very similar to Inszenierung (staging). "to stage" is defined on dictionary.com as "to be adaptable to or suitable for theatrical presentation". My Langenscheidt dictionary defines "szenische Darstellung" as staging and "Umsetzung" can in certain cases be translated as "to convert". I also feel that this suggestion fits in with your context given. Reference: http://www.dictionary.com Langenscheidt PC Bibliothek |

peer agreement (net): +1cinematographic set design Explanation: or possibly "apply cinematographic set design to the stage". In any case, he wants to be a "Bühnenbildner" which is of course a "set designer". It's not clear, though, if he wants to do this in a studio (movies) setting or on-stage (plays). I suspect the latter, in which instance the second option would become operative. |
