Sinemanın Dijitalleşmesiyle Yönetmenin Kendini Görünmez Kılma Çabası: Abbas Kiarostami Örneği
Director’s Attempt to Make Himself Invisible with the Digitalization of Cinema: A Case Study of Abbas Kiarostami

Summary/Abstract: Digitalization of cinema provides directors various possibilities and preferences in terms of production and direction. The concept of digital cinema involves more than just the connotations created in the computer environment, which contain artificial images that cannot be recorded in everyday life. It is thought that only commercial / popular cinema directors and producer companies benefit more from the characteristics of digital cinema. However independent and minimalist directors, who regard cinema as an art, introduce a new dimension to storytelling and discuss philosophical concepts with cinema and aim to bring cinema closer to reality also benefit from the possibilities of digital cinema significantly. This paper discusses how Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami conceals himself in his own films by using the possibilities of digital cinema and the changing roles of the director.
