| Sumario: | The birth of cinematography as a device on bodies allows us to think informative documentary cinema as a resource to understand what is worth to show and to interpret the senses of reality that are intended to be projected with that showing. With the mass production of celluloid productions in the 1920s and 1930s, moving images gave a new meaning to what a correct movement is, and thus established a bodily grammar. This implies methods, sequences, distances and distinctive harmonies: that is, the film montage produced particular ways of registering and projecting bodies in motion, which were articulated with the construction of a correct narrative, establishing techniques.
To do this, the aim is to analyze the oldest filmed images of body practices with didactic objectives, in what represents a succession of documentary frames of people doing physical activities for the camera with the intention of transmitting a message to be reproduced. With this, it is possible to observe, first, a clear distance with the current registers and, second, a homogenization, succession and simultaneity of techniques (corporal and cinematographic), producing as an effect the configuration of what is visible, invisible and not- visible from moving images and bodies. |
