Abstract

These days, visual anthropology has been developed rapidly in China. A "film-based" expression of the anthropological films in academic standards is one of the theoretical and methodological issues to be solved in the development of visual anthropology in China. In terms of communication of anthropological information, anthropological film has a different emphasis with written anthropology. Through a comparison of the two kinds of transmission methods, the paper discusses the unique audio-visual expression language and the way of information communication of anthropological film and analyzes the trend of development and the background of the transmission mode of anthropological film information, aiming at realizing an overall connection of Chinese anthropological film method with that of the world.
