Dissertação (Mestrado eM Psicologia Clínica) – Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo, São Paulo, 2021. Essa pesquisa foi feita por uma mulher montadora. Trata-se de um pensamento da montagem que busca trazer à tona as vozes de mulheres, as montadoras de cinema e contadoras de estórias pelas imagens e sons. As mulheres, ao longo da história e da história do cinema foram sendo apagadas e suas estórias nunca contadas. Essa pesquisa explicita um modo de pensar, de fazer cinema por meio das estórias de algumas mulheres e da criação de personagens que emprestam as suas vozes e corpos para contar parte dessa estória de forma que a voz seja sempre de uma mulher e de seus processos e relações. Palavras-chave: Mulheres. MontageM. CineMa. Ficção. Subjetividades. ABSTRACT PEREIRA, Renata Felisatti Gonçalves. They, others, some women. 2021. Dissertation (Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology) – Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo, São Paulo, 2020. This research was done by a woman film editor. This is a thought of montage/editing (process) that seeks to bring out women’s voice, the women film editors and women storytellers through images and sounds. The women, throughout the history and the history of cinema/films, have been erased and their stories never told. This research explains a way of thinking, of making films through the stories of some women and the creation of characters who lend their voices and bodies to tell part of this story, so that the voice is always of a woman and her process and relations. Keywords: Women. FilM Editing/Montage. CineMa/Films. Fiction. Subjectivities.

E quanto mais chegamos perto do afeto na palavra, mais estamos abertas às experiências vivas, às possibilidades de florescer. E em nome do afeto, eu me abro para a experimentação com a outra. ELA: Como está se sentindo? INTRODUÇÃO Yo quiero ser mujer sin modelos que imitar. (María Galindo1) Nas fogueiras não estavam apenas os corpos de “bruxas”, destruídos; também estava todo um universo de relações sociais que fora a base do poder social das mulheres e um vasto conhecimento que elas haviam transmitido, de mãe para filha, ao longo de gerações. Somos as netas de todas as bruxas que vocês não conseguiram queimar. (Silvia Federici2) Desde pequena sou fascinada pelos mundos que não são o meu. São os mundos delas. Por isso gosto de ouvir e contar estórias. Você entra em contato com outras narrativas. É um fascínio mesmo pela outra. E quanto mais diversa, mais sedutora. Este trabalho é uma declaração de amor a algumas mulheres. Elas fazem parte de mim. Um corpo feito de poros de afetos produzidos por essas mulheres. A

Clark expose, à destination des techniciens d’Hollywood, les différentes manières d’élaborer les effets spéciaux d’un film. Son inventaire s’étend du trucage le plus simple – un écran de fumée, par exemple (40-43) – aux effets spéciaux les plus élaborés, comme l’animation image par image (108-109) ou la construction de maquettes animées complexes (89, 146, 152).

Deposit Guide Contact: email ON THE MEANING OF A CUT: TOWARDS A THEORY OF EDITING Bartłomiej Dziadosz A dissertation submitted to the Department of English and Humanities in candidacy for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Birkbeck, University of London October 2018 Abstract I confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own and the work of other persons is appropriately acknowledged. This thesis looks at a variety of discourses about film editing in order to explore the possibility, on the one hand, of drawing connections between them, and on the other, of addressing some of their problematic aspects. Some forms of fragmentation existed from the very beginnings of the history of the moving image, and the thesis argues that forms of editorial control were executed by early exhibitors, film pioneers, writers, and directors, as well as by a fully- fledged film editor. This historical reconstruction of how the profession of editor evolved sheds light on the specific aspects of their work. Following on from that, it is proposed that models of editing fall under two broad paradigms: of montage and continuity.

Five years later, she traveled to Hollywood to help William’s brother, producer-director Cecil B. De Mille, edit We Can’t Have Everything (1918). DeMille is quoted in the Los Angeles Herald Examiner as saying about her that “though a gentle person, professionally she is as firm as a stone wall . We argue over virtually every picture” (III 3). Nonetheless, she was the only person the director would permit to edit his films and continued working with him until his death in 1959.

  • Margaret Booth and Hollywood’S Pioneering Female Film Editors by Kristen Hatch
    Cutting Women: Margaret Booth and Hollywood’s Pioneering Female Film Editors by Kristen Hatch Contents 1. When an Editor was a Cutter 2. Margaret Booth: From D.W. Griffith to Irving Thalberg 3. Women Editors Make the Transition to Sound The finishing of pictures—the cutting and titling, has been, until quite lately, the most neglected branch of motion picture production. Nobody, with one or two conspicuous exceptions, paid any attention to it. It was a case of let Jakey cut the picture and Lizzie, the Typewriter, title it. — Frank Woods, Moving Picture World (1917) In 1926, the Los Angeles Times informed readers that “one of the most important positions in the motion-picture industry is held almost entirely by women” whose job it was to assemble “thousands of feet of film so that it tells an interesting story in the most straightforward manner” (B7). Assembling reels and cutting negatives was tedious work that often fell to young working- class women. However, out of the ranks of these film joiners and negative cutters emerged a handful of women who would help to develop the editing techniques that would become the hallmark of Hollywood’s visual style. It is difficult to uncover much information about these early film editors. Some, like Dorothy Arzner, who cut Rudolph Valentino’s Blood and Sand (1922), moved up from editing to play a more visible role in Hollywood. But for the most part, the women who cut film in the silent era remained unacknowledged in film credits or the trade press. Their work was considered to be merely technical rather than creative, especially during a period when many directors oversaw the editing of their own films.

  • Trojan Annie: Anne Bauchens' Epic 40-Year
    PAGES 23-38 +notes 1 "Trojan Annie" Anne Bauchens' Epic 40- Year Partnership with Cecil B. DeMille In early 1914, William deMille,1 a prominent New York playwright who had recently moved west to become part of Southern California's bustling, upstart motion picture business, took his secretary, a very proper, soft-spoken young woman named Anne Bauchens (1882-1967), to a movie screening. The film, a western called The Squaw Man, had been co-produced and co-directed by William's flamboyant younger brother, Cecil. Cecil's first attempt at filmmaking, it was also the first feature-length film ever made within the geographic boundaries of Hollywood. Within weeks, The Squaw Man would become an enormous box office hit, both launching Cecil's career and laying some of the groundwork for what would even­ tually become Paramount Pictures. On that particular day, however, it also had a deep impact on the impressionable Bauchens. "I was a very naive young lady;' she recalled decades later. "I had never been among the lit­ erary and more intelligent groups [so] I just thought it was the most won­ derful thing I'd seen:'2 The experience changed Bauchens' life. In addition to working as William's secretary in his new role as a writer-director, she helped out wherever she was needed and soaked up everything she could about this fascinating new art form. For a brief period, she worked as a production assistant, literally creating the position of script clerk, the person who records every detail of individual film shots so they can later be matched in the editing process.
