 Primo: photo-fragments of nature are recorded
 Secundo: The photo fragments are combined in
various ways
 Primo + Secundo = MONTAGE
 Nature
 Mise-en-scene: interrelations
 Mise-en-cadre: pictoral composition

4. Real Doing & Pictorial Imagination
 Reactions to events
 The Mexican: Prize-Fight Scene
 Acrobatics of Expression
 Gesture -> Gymnastics

5. Typage
 Specific approach to events by the content of the
film.
 Root in Theatre.
 An indicator of definite affinities to real life through
camera.

6. Commedia Del’Arte & Typage
 Typage is the modern
development of Commedia
Del’Arte.
 Modern Film Typage is
based on the need for
presenting each new figure
in our first glimpse of him
so sharply and completely
that futher use of this
figure may be known as an
element.

7. Theatrical Elements
 Musicians use a scale of sounds
 The painter scales the color of the background
 The writer scales a row of sounds and words

8. Dialogue
 Intersections of two dialogues sharpen characters
and play, quicken tempo, and multiply the comic
possibilities.
 The Sage
 Music-Hall element
 Flaubert: Two lines of speech are interlaced

9. Strike
 Out of mechanical fusion, form plastic synthesis, the
attempt evolves into thematic synthesis.

 Then, seemed to be an
attack on individualism

cinema.
