Özet:

 

Turizm hareketlerinin giderek arttığı günümüzde, turistik değerlere sahip ülkeler daha çok sayıda insanın ülkeyi ziyaret etmelerini sağlamak amacıyla tanıtım faaliyetlerini yoğun bir şekilde uyguladığı görülmektedir. Tanıtım faaliyetleri her kesimin görevi olmakla beraber Türkiye açısından en üst düzeyde resmi kurum olarak Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlığı’da tanıtım çalışmalarının ana merkezi durumunda görevini yerine getirmektedir. Tanıtım faaliyetlerinin başında da yurtdışında yapılan tanıtım filmleri gelmektedir. Çok sayıda ülkede gösterilen tanıtım filmlerinde hedef turistik tüketicilere ülkenin doğal güzelliklerinin yanı sıra sahip olduğu kültürel değerlerde bir mesaj çerçevesinde sunulmaktadır. Çalışmada Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlığı’nın yurtdışı tanıtım kampanyalarında kullandığı ve en uzun süreli olan film, söylem analizi yöntemi ve söylem analizinde de post yapısalcı bir yaklaşım ile çözümlenmiştir. Çözümleme sonucunda tanıtım filminde, Türkiye’nin geçmiş ile geleceği birbirine bağlayan unsurları iç içe kullandığı ve modern bir ülke olmasının yanı sıra geçmişine de sahip çıkan ve zengin bir kültürel mirasa sahip ülke imajı oluşturulmaya çalışıldığı görülmüştür.

 

Recently, many positive developments such as economic and commercial
 development and thus increasing purchasing power, increasing knowledge and experiences, having more free time, developing life standards etc. have enhanced the
 number of people participating in touristic activities. Therefore, tourism has been one of
 the sectors that have a great importance for countries in terms of economy, socio-cultural
 changes and development. Tourism, on the top of the list of fastest developing sectors of
 the world, had 966 million participants in 2011 and tourism expenditure in this year was
 909 billion dollars. In the report of “Tourism 2020 Vision” prepared by World Tourism
 Organization, it is stated that number of people participating in touristic activities will be
 1,5 billion and tourism income will be 2 trillion dollars in 2020. In terms of Turkey,
 tourism has been one of the sectors that have developed most and expanded over the
 world average, thus has been a key sector for economic development.
 Today, there is an intensive competition in tourism, between both facilities at micro
 level and national governmental agencies at macro level. Competition conditions change
 fast; thus, quality, quantity and kinds of products and touristic promotions are increasing
 regardless of capacity of agencies. Governmental tourism agencies (Ministry Of Culture
 and Tourism, Foreign Affairs, Embassies and Attaches abroad etc.) do have to draw
 attention of tourists by informing touristic values of the country. For this purpose, mass
 media should be used for promotion, both visually and in written. Thus, potential tourists
 will be informed and a positive image will be gained.
 Ministry Of Culture and Tourism, as the top agency, has set many targets in “2023
 Turkey Tourism Strategy” to gain more advantage from tourism. It has been aimed that
 Turkey will be an important destination point among the five top countries in terms of
 number of tourists and tourism income, and will be an international brand by 2023.
 However, promotions in the tourism market should be efficiently made to reach these
 targets. People should have information about touristic values and opportunities of a
 country to participate in tourism activities. This will be possible throughonly an efficient
 promotion. For this purpose, different features of Turkish culture that has thousands of
 years of history is being forwarded via promotional films of Ministry Of Culture and
 Tourism to the target group.
 In Turkey, touristic promotion is made by focusing on values of certain destination,
 thus a general promotion of the country. Promotional activities focusing on natural
 beauties are sometimes successful for drawing interest of tourism consumers, but it
 mostly fails for increasing competitive power because they are not minimized on religion
 or city basis at micro level. If promotional activities continue to be made with limited
 contents at macro level (national), this can be inefficient for marketing of country tourism.
 Today, tourists are looking for new destinations at which they can experience new
 cultures and adventures. Many tourists do not want to spend their holiday between
 artificial, unaesthetic, unappealingly built concrete constructions. No matter how much a
 region has valuable touristic supply, if it cannot market these values, it does not make a
 sense.
 The most important feature of promotional films prepared by Ministry Of Culture and
 Tourism is that they use the elements binding the future and the past. Ministry Of Culture
 and Tourism mostly made a succession of promotional films to introduce Turkey. In the
 research, the longest promotional film of Ministry Of Culture and Tourism used for
 promotional activities in 2011 was analyzed with discourse analysis method and
 poststructuralist approach. As a result of the analysis, cultural figures used in the films are
 also used for promotional activities of Turkey, this can be considered as an appropriate
 implementation for creating an image, and cultural figures used in the film inform the tourists about Turkey.( Moreover, focusing on promotional films in the audio- visual
 tools such as television, cinema etc. , more comprehensive and accurate promotional
 activities about Turkey, benefiting from internet more , promotional activities about
 touristic values of Turkey except Istanbul and Antalya, emphasizing on diversity of
 touristic products, promotional activities during the year, not only tourism season, being a
 centre for the three religion, thus being a belief tourism, thermal areas and using these
 elements for attracting more tourists in health tourism, focusing on safety theme in the
 films that is considered as an important factor for choices of tourists will make a positive
 contribution to expected benefits from tourism promoting , and thus promotions of
 governmental and private organizations, especially Ministry Of Culture and Tourism,
 will be benefited more and effects of the them will increase.).
