Abstract:

The domain of cinematography pedagogy surpasses technical camera skills, delving into visual storytelling's creative essence. This study aims to explore methodologies facilitating effective implementation of outcome-based education (OBE) within China's educational system. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, this research conducted a comprehensive narrative literature review, analyzing 135 relevant articles. The study focuses on identifying barriers impeding the successful integration of OBE in cinematography education. The findings highlighted that obstacles hindering OBE integration include inadequate educator and curriculum developer preparedness, limited resources, and challenges stemming from cultural and linguistic diversity. Successful OBE applications highlight the need for tailored strategies in the curriculum, emphasizing student-centered teaching and continual teacher training. Aligning cinematography education with industry standards and employing student-focused teaching methods fosters the development of proficient professionals. This study underscores the pivotal role of strategic curriculum practices in cinematography education's theoretical and practical realms within China. In contributing to the literature on OBE in cinematography, this study emphasizes strategic approaches' significance, illuminating successful applications in the Chinese educational context.
