Features: The book studies the structural art of film and television. The task of structuralism is the construction, arrangement, and distribution of film and television art materials. Structural issues are also one of the important fields of linguistic research. The main academic viewpoints discussed in this book are the key points and difficulties encountered in film and television language teaching, which are the theoretical reflections of the author in teaching film and television language courses at the university. Currently, there are few domestic works on film and television language, and most of them focus on the study of cinematic language. With over two decades of experience working in television stations and engaging in film and television language teaching, the author has focused on research in the field of television language. Several chapters in the book are dedicated to discussing television language and structuralism, which is a distinctive academic feature of the book. Another feature of the book is its alignment with the theoretical characteristics of television studies itself, combining theory with creative practice, featuring many engaging and insightful case analyses. Therefore, this book will not only benefit undergraduate students of radio and television but also help broaden the horizons and enhance theoretical knowledge for a wide range of television station directors and editors. The book is divided into twelve chapters, including: The Structure and the Art of Structure, Basic Elements of Television Structure, Framing Construction, Tonal and Color Structure, Line and Shape Structure, Narrative Combination, The History of Image Narrative Structure (Film Section), The History of Image Narrative Structure (Television Series Section), The Structural Art of Television Variety Shows, The Structural Form of Television Documentaries, The Structural Art of Time and Space, and The Structural Art of Television Sound.
