Özet:

The aim of the study is to understand and discuss today’s cinema-viewer relationship in children’s spectator scale, while cinema focuses on the relationship established with the viewer through films. It is believed that it is necessary to work on children’s spectators, as the experience of the first time that our cinematic experience is formed and shaped is childhood, and the idea of this experience will shape the future viewer identity. As a complement to films, the viewer is treated in a central location in this study. The study emphasizes that the spectators experience of watching movies is historically different from that of social, economic, cultural and technological developments. This frame-by-motion study shows that the cinema spectator relationship has changed with the opportunities and channels offered by new communication technologies; That urban life enriches the viewing experience by offering different possibilities and alternatives to the spectator, and that new forms of navigation; digital cinema experiences. Parallel to all these transformations, the spectator and experiences has changed in our cinema culture, which has global and local characteristics. The study seeks to question the traces of these multifaceted changes through their child’s spectator experiences, staying within certain boundaries. In the first and middle school age children living in Ankara, children in the age group of 7-14 responded to their experiences of film watching, their perceptions and ways of producing meaning. The study, which is based on the tradition of British Cultural Studies, embraces the idea that spectator experience and meaning can be built up in socio-cultural conditions and change depending on circumstances. Observation and in-depth interview techniques are used together in the data collection phase of the study.
