Abstract

Background. The work of O. Dovzhenko, in particular films, graphics, and literary works, has repeatedly become the object of research by scientists. The assessment of the artist's work in the Ukrainian and foreign press allows us to create a general picture of the recognition of his talent in different countries. However, the study of the media image of O. Dovzhenko remains a little-studied topic. The article "Specifics of modelling the media image of O. Dovzhenko in the magazine "Kino" for the period from 1926 to 1927" sets the goal of studying the specifics of modelling the media image of O. Dovzhenko in the magazine "Kino" for the years 1926, 1927, which will contribute to the formation of a holistic idea of his media image.

Methods. The study used analysis, synthesis, generalization, descriptive and comparative methods.

Results. The text and image materials of the magazine Kino for 1926 and 1927 were analyzed, taking into account the information obtained during the study of O. Dovzhenko's films "The Berry of Love" (1926), "The Diplomatic Messenger's Bag" (1927), and "Zvenygora" (1928). It was found that the editorial staff of the magazine Kino used a wide range of media products to model a predominantly positive media image of O. Dovzhenko.

Conclusions. The media image of O. Dovzhenko in the magazine "Kino" began to take shape in 1926, when publications related to his films "Vasya the Reformer" (1926) and "The Berry of Love" (1926) appeared. The image of the film director was formed thanks to such genres as notes, mini-essays, portrait sketches, essays, photographs of episodes of the artist's films with texts; drawings, photo collages, cartoons with verbal accompaniment, emphasizing the originality of O. Dovzhenko's talent and his innovative approaches in cinema. During 1926 and 1927, a positive image was mainly created in the magazine "Kino". However, one case of negative modelling in a cartoon was recorded, presumably caused by the author's creative style, not by the attitude towards the director.
