Film and filmmaking techniques are powerful mediums that could be incorporated into the architecture and the city. Film and filmmaking techniques have long been addressed and can be traced in several discussions and ideas in architecture. With the advent of digitally-driven architecture, the integration of film into other endeavors has gained new impetus, as this technology espouses the characteristics inherent in the film. However, this discourse became more profound and evolved into layers of criticism in the 1960s and 1990s and created a generic background for the digital advancements, despite the technical setbacks. This thesis aims to discover the pioneering role of film as a medium in architecture and city by revisiting three case studies in the periods between the 1960s and 1990s. This research unveils how the integration of film as a medium in architecture can contribute to the architects, designers, city planners, and researchers while designing, researching, or scrutinizing in three different ways: Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, and Steven Izenour’s Las Vegas Studio (1968), Bernard Tschumi's Manhattan Transcripts (1976-1981), and Rem Koolhaas' Jussieu Libraries (1992). By revisiting the prior case studies, this thesis shows that integrating film and filmmaking techniques into architecture can produce different end-products, focus on the experience, actively interact with space, introduce new design concepts, and expand the definition of architecture.

Analysis of the limits of representation of architectural photographic images in periodicals
Bakht, Nazlı; Güzer, Celal Abdi; Department of Architecture (2007)
This study aims to analyze the limits of representation of architectural photographic images in periodicals within architectural media that shape today’s architectural production. This aim is accomplished in three sections; “examining the power of image in architecture”; “examining architectural media” and “examining the periodicals’ attitudes towards using architectural photography”. A case study is done to uncover the relationship between the photograph and the medium that it takes place on and determine ...
Analysis of Filmmaking Techniques for Architectural Animations
Alvarado, Rodrigo Garcia (2008-1-1)
Digital animation provides a new possibility to exhibit architectural projects, but it must address some features to properly show the building design. This paper exposes a review of diverse moving images presentation of architectural environments in order to identify principles to be considered when display building projects through digital animation. It studied scenes of twenty productions; eight famous movies from different ages, like examples of major filmmaking efforts; six documentaries of historical ...
Layer-by-layer deposition of tannic acid and poly(2isopropyl-2-oxazoline) onto iron oxide nanoparticles
Akbar, Majid; Erel Göktepe, İrem; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2017)
Layer-by-layer (LbL) technique is a simple and unique technique for fabrication of thin films. It is possible to control the film properties during assembly and post-assembly steps. Stimuli responsive polymers are important building blocks for LbL assembly, especially for drug delivery applications of LbL films. Iron oxide nanoparticles have been of interest for biomedical applications such as bioimaging and/or drug delivery via magnetothermal trigger. This thesis study aimed to develop strategies for layer...
Reconstruction of architectural image in science fiction cinema: a case study on New York
Hacıömeroğlu, Türkan Nihan; Güzer, Celal Abdi; Department of Architecture (2008)
This thesis interrogates the interrelation between architecture and science fiction cinema to understand the fictional and representative power of architecture. Since cinema embraces both physical and representative aspects of architecture it is convenient to carry out the research through the mediation of cinema. To accomplish this goal science fiction genre is particularly chosen where architectural image can break its commonly acknowledged facet and can reconstruct to participate in the narrative. The ar...
Zaman ve Mekân Kavramları Arasındaki Paradoksal İlişkinin “Bulut Atlası” Filmi Üzerinden Okunması
Erdoğan, Ebru; Yıldız, Zeynep (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2018-1-19)
Mimarlık ve sinema arasında, zaman ve mekân tasarlama ortaklığı ile bir etkileşim bulunmaktadır. Bu etkileşimin en yoğun olduğu tür olan bilim-kurgu, mimarlığın zaman ve mekân yaratma süreciyle benzer kaygılar taşımaktadır. Mimarlık ve bilim-kurgu sineması arasındaki bu etkileşimi örneklemek amacıyla, farklı zaman ve mekân yaklaşımları (bağımsız altı farklı kurgusu), alternatif kurgu teknikleri ve postmodern film niteliğiyle çok yönlü perspektifler kazandırarak öne çıkan, günümüz sineması örneklerinden olan...
