摘要

《泳漾》描述一個自卑的胖子和過氣的游泳國手，受到生存和慾望的刺激，開啟一段另類的游泳課。本片為一部以「水」為師，學會擺脫自我束縛、自我成長的三十分鐘電影短片。

筆者欲以本片挑戰國內電影短片中少見的喜劇風格，以幽默的方式呈現人情冷暖。由客觀的敘事角度描述小人物渴望突破失意的生活，卻屢陷荒謬情境的喜感，參考芬蘭近代導演阿基．郭利斯馬基（Aki Kaurismaki）的喜劇作品。

臺灣電影短片於商業上映機會其微，主要以影展為映演平台。加上本片風格並非主流的表現手法，因此拍出觀眾共鳴的喜劇便是本片最大的挑戰。本論述以三幕劇架構檢視，詳述以製片角度在攝影、色彩、美術設計、配樂等選擇，解析本片如何引導觀眾進入「人生失敗組」的小胖與教練的內心世界。

本企劃有幸獲得新北市100 年度影音藝術補助、行政院文化建設委員會100 年度敘事短片攝製獎助。本論述經過筆者自我咀嚼反芻後，詳述本片製作過程與檢討。希冀藉由求學期間的最後一部影片《泳漾》，作為所學的完整呈現及重新出發的依據。

“The Pool Mam” describes an inferiority fat and a swimming national athlete who is the ex-sport star were stimulated by the desire to survive and to open some alternative swimming lessons together. In this thirty-minute-long film, the main actor took "water" as a teacher, and learned to get rid of self-restraint to grow.

The writer challenges the common domestic comedy style, represents human nature in a funny and clever way, and objectively describes the story that ordinary people eager to break frustrations, but repeatedly are trapped into absurd situations. This film use Finnish director Aki Kaurismak’s comedy works for reference.

Taiwanese short film clips have few opportunities to be released in commercial movie screen, instead in film festivals. It is a huge challenge to shoot the film to get an audience positive feedback since this is not a mainstream film style of expression. The essay inspected the film under the outline of “Three Act Structure“and described the producer’s perspective on choices of the photography, color, graphic design and music. This essay analyzed how to guide the audience into in inner world of the fatty and the coach, so-called "Life failure group", in the film.

This film gained the couple honors of a grant from the government. As a producer, I wrote down all the details and the examinations of the film production process in this essay. Hope by presenting the film “The Pool Man” at the end of the semester, as the learning integration and a new start.
