The Brazilian documentary s production has grown progressively in the last two decades, however a part of it no longer limits itself to a reproduction of the reality, characteristic traditionally associated to that type of production. In order to study those new works, this Master s Dissertation broadens the documentary concept to essay-documentary , acknowledging it as a subjective reflection about the world. That perspective is an unfolding of the concept of film essay, from Arlindo Machado, which reaches the productions that overpass the limits of the documentary and do not ties to the dichotomy between fiction and non-fiction or to the concern with a truth as a mirror of the reality. About the essay, it is adopted the concept of Theodor Adorno, which refers to the construction of an experimental and not totalitarian speech. To think the documentary as audiovisual, it gets back to Jean-Claude Bernadet, which contrasted that feature in the Brazilians contemporary documental productions. It is chosen to study the construction of that writing through the montage or the conceptual editing. To understand the montage, it returns to the concepts proposed by Serguei Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov, and followed by the video language according to Philippe Dubois and Arlindo Machado, until it arrives to the concept of metamedium and of montage as a spatial composition, proposed by Lev Manovich. At last, in order to consolidate the essay-documentary, it is chosen works which allowed establishing a dialogue between the theoretical perspectives approached. In this sense, it is presented an analysis divided in three sub themes: the montage of the visual speech, the montage of the sonorous speech and the symbolic montage. Each one of those sub themes is approached from a key-documentary, with the aim of realizing a reflection more deepen: Andarilho (Cao Guimarães), Sonoroscópio SP: polifonia da imigração (Kiko Goifman e Rachel Monteiro) and Nós que aqui estamos por vós esperamos (Marcelo Masagão). The selection tried to stand out production which was not restricted to the verbal as a speech composition strategy, but which adopted both images and soundtracks to build a symbolic documental writing / A presente pesquisa elenca alguns elementos para mapear as especificidades do documentário-ensaio. A produção brasileira de documentários cresceu progressivamente nas duas últimas décadas, entretanto uma parte dela não se limita mais a uma reprodução da realidade, característica tradicionalmente associada a esse tipo de produção. Para estudar essas novas obras, esta Dissertação de Mestrado amplia o conceito de documentário para documentário-ensaio , entendendo-o como uma reflexão subjetiva sobre o mundo. Essa perspectiva é um desdobramento do conceito de filme ensaio, de Arlindo Machado, que abrange as produções que ultrapassam os limites do documentário e não se prendem à dicotomia entre ficção e não-ficção ou à preocupação com uma verdade como espelho do real. Sobre o ensaio, adotamos o conceito de Theodor Adorno, que se refere à construção de um discurso experimental e não totalitário. Para pensar o documentário como um discurso audiovisual, retomamos Jean-Claude Bernadet, que constatou essa característica nas produções documentais brasileiras contemporâneas. Escolhemos estudar a construção dessa escrita através da montagem ou edição conceitual. Para entender a montagem, voltamo-nos para os conceitos propostos por Serguei Eisenstein e Dziga Vertov, e seguimos pela linguagem videográfica de acordo com Philippe Dubois e Arlindo Machado, até chegarmos aos conceitos de metamídia e da montagem como composição espacial, propostos por Lev Manovich. Por fim, para consolidar o conceito de documentário-ensaio, escolhemos obras que permitissem estabelecer um diálogo entre as perspectivas teóricas abordadas. Nesse sentido, apresentamos uma análise dividida em três subtemas: a montagem do discurso visual, a montagem do discurso sonoro e a montagem simbólica. Cada um desses subtemas é abordado a partir de um documentário-chave, com o intuito de realizar uma reflexão mais aprofundada: Andarilho (Cao Guimarães), Sonoroscópio SP: polifonia da imigração (Kiko Goifman e Rachel Monteiro) e Nós que aqui estamos por vós esperamos (Marcelo Masagão). A escolha procurou destacar produções que não fossem restritas ao verbal como estratégia de composição do discurso, mas que adotassem tanto imagens quanto trilhas sonoras para construir uma escrita documental simbólica

Esta pesquisa tenciona investigar a produção artística de Cindy Sherman (1954-) e Stan Douglas (1960-), partindo da observação dos procedimentos por eles adotados para a produção de suas obras e de seu interesse comum pela natureza da cultura de massa. Pretende-se, ainda, evidenciar os tipos de convenções próprias dos suportes das mídias utilizados para suas imagens e o modus operandi que as mantêm. Grosso modo, entende-se por imagens subsidiadas pela mídia de massa aquelas que são expostas visando ao acesso em grande escala e de forma imediatista. / This study aims to shed light on the work of Cindy Sherman (1954-) and Stan Douglas (1960-), and proposes as its start-point not only the procedures that have been used by both of the artists in their creative process, but also the interest they have demonstrated in the mass culture as a subject for their work. In addiction to that, we intend to evince the type of conventions specific to the media in relation to its images and their modus operandi. By and large, it is well known that the repertoire of images subsidized by mass media correspond to those exposed in order to provide immediate access and in large scale.

Un film est une œuvre de collaboration qui se nourrit des différentes sensibilités des professionnels qui le font et qui épaulent, de manière plus ou moins significative, son auteur. Notre réflexion se situe au moment charnière de toute œuvre artistique, sa création. L’étude de la poétique du film, des processus de sa fabrication, permet d’en comprendre plus profondément les enjeux esthétiques. En abordant spécifiquement les relations de collaboration chez le réalisateur portugais Manoel de Oliveira, il s’agit d’enquêter sur la façon dont les rapports idéologiques, personnels et professionnels que le cinéaste noue avec quelques-uns de ses collaborateurs déterminent la conception de l’image, du montage, du choix des acteurs et du processus d’adaptation d’une œuvre littéraire. Les professionnels choisis sont l’acteur portugais Luis Miguel Cintra, la monteuse française Valérie Loiseleux, le directeur de la photographie suisse Renato Berta et la romancière portugaise Agustina Bessa-Luis. En analysant ces relations bilatérales, ce travail se demande comment la présence du collaborateur influence la conception de la mise en scène d’Oliveira et comment le fait d’être un interlocuteur privilégié du réalisateur portugais détermine la suite de la carrière de quelques-uns de ces collaborateurs. Sans mettre en doute le cinéma d’auteur, nous croyons néanmoins au cinéma de collaboration, un cinéma qui dit « nous » au lieu de « je », où le collaborateur est non seulement un témoin du faire cinématographique, mais aussi une surface sensible, une présence active et constamment mise à l’épreuve dans le processus de création qu’il intègre – et qui l’intègre. / A film is a collaboration work that feeds on the different sensibilities of the professionals who make it and contribute, more or less significantly, to its author. This study focuses on the key moment of every work of art, its creation. The study of the poetics of film – the making of film – allows for a more profound understanding of the aesthetic challenges involved. Specifically addressing the collaborative relationships of Portuguese filmmaker Manoel de Oliveira, involves inquiring how the ideological, personal and professional relationships the filmaker has with his collaborators determines his concepts of image, editing, his choice of actors and the process of adapting a literary work. The chosen professionals are Portuguese actor Luis Miguel Cintra, French editor Valerie Loiseleux, Swiss Cinematographer Renato Berta and Portuguese novelist Agustina Bessa-Luis. By analyzing these bilateral relationships, this study questions how the presence of the collaborators influences the concept of Oliveira’s scene setting, as well as how being a privileged interlocutor of the Portuguese filmmaker influences the careers of these collaborators. Without calling the author’s work into question, we believe in collaborative cinema, a cinema that says « us » instead of « me ». A cinema where the collaborator is not only a witness to the making of films, but also a sensitive surface and an active presence put to the test in the creation process which he integrates and integrates him.

Located on the interstice between Media Studies and Literary Theory, my dissertation explores the emerging genre of photo-fiction -- literary works that incorporate photographic images into the manuscripts -- and its impact on the commemoration of traumatic historical events. I argue that the way we represent and remember historical traumas is dependent on the media in which images emanating from these events are produced and circulated; put differently, the context of these images shapes our engagement with them. By examining literary works that incorporate photographs into their printed text, I explore textual and visual representations of historical trauma (such as the two World Wars, the Balkan wars of the Nineties, and 9/11). The authors whose works I analyze (Jonathan Safran Foer, Aleksandar Hemon, W.G. Sebald) grant photography a new status: the inserted images transcend traditional “authentification strategies” and draw attention to the convergence of realism and indexicality featured by these photographs. These authors’ employment of photographs from various media (television, internet, printed press, encyclopedias and archives) questions not only the technical qualities of each medium but the veracity and accuracy of evidence. Photography’s capacity to secure and store information is put radically into question, not only because the new contexts of these images, but because of the manipulations and reconfigurations the movement between media has brought about. Drawing on Walter Benjamin’s concept of the literary montage, I suggest that literature provides an apt arena to examine the reception to images. By literary montage I mean the opening up of a new dimension in which visual and verbal elements are juxtaposed, and the disjunctions and gaps between them encourage readers to become active participants in the creation of narrative. Photo-fiction’s interplay between images and texts therefore not only sheds light on the mechanics of representation, but demand from its audience to reflect on the way we interpret and respond to historical traumas in a society saturated with images.

Notre mémoire de recherche-création a pour point de départ deux conceptions sonores filmiques, auxquelles nous avons contribué en tant que monteur et concepteur sonores. Ces films – et leur bande sonore – ont, par leur forme, leur contenu, mais aussi par la dynamique ayant rythmé leur création, redéfini un aspect ou un autre de notre pratique. Ainsi, au moyen d'une auto-poïétique, nous explorons les différentes conditions de la création sonore mises en jeu, qu'elles soient d'ordre technique – le film Saint-Denys Garneau – ou d'ordre esthétique – le film Ma famille en 17 bobines. Dans chaque cas, nous cherchons aussi à explorer les problèmes poétiques et pratiques posés. Au creux de cette conjugaison de ces conditions émergent alors des outils de médiation, des relations humaines, des mouvements esthétiques et des postures d'écoute qui jettent un éclairage inédit sur notre pratique sonore. / This research-creation project finds its roots in two film sound designs to which I contributed as a sound editor or sound designer. These films – and their respective soundtracks –, by their form, their content, but also by the dynamics that pulsed their creation, have redefined certain aspects of my own sound work. In this study, by the means of an autopoietic analysis, I explore the creative conditions at play in the elaboration of my sound designs, as they answer to technical matters – the film Saint- Denys Garneau – or aesthetic matters – the film Ma famille en 17 bobines. In each case, I also seek to deepen poetic and practical problems. From deep in the combination of these conditions emerge mediation tools, human relations, aesthetic movements and modes of listening that shed new light on my sound practice.

Notre projet porte sur la relation entre la bande-annonce et le film qu’elle présente. Plus précisément, nous nous intéressons à la manière dont le remontage effectué par la bande-annonce amplifie le film. En premier lieu, nous avons effectué une analyse intertextuelle et esthétique de cinq bandes-annonces contemporaines en cernant le concept spécifique de chacun des exemples et en isolant ce que nous avons appelé des effets d’emphase, c’est-à-dire la mise en valeur de certaines qualités du film par l’entremise du montage du film-annonce. Nous avons ensuite exploré conceptuellement la logique transformante de la bande-annonce en considérant des pistes complémentaires : le montage attractif, la structure ouverte et l’évocation d’une mémoire virtuelle. / Our project focuses on the relationship between the trailer and the film it presents, specifically, how the re-editing of the trailer amplify the film. First, we conducted an intertextual and aesthetic analysis of five contemporary trailers by identifying the specific concept of each example and by isolating what we called the effects of emphasis, that is to say accentuation of certain qualities of the film through the editing of the trailer. We then explored conceptually the transforming logic of the trailer considering complementary ideas: attractive editing, open structure and the evocation of a virtual memory.

[pt] Em 2011, Kenneth Goldsmith, poeta, artista e professor da Universidade da Pensilvânia, lançou o livro Uncreative Writing, que poderíamos traduzir como escrita não-criativa ou escrita recriativa , para designar o processo de trabalho que resulta em obras textuais cujos textos, porém, não foram originalmente escritos por seus autores, mas sim reescritos ou transcritos a partir de fontes – sem mudanças no texto original – ou editadas e rearranjadas por meio da descontextualização e recontextualização desses textos pré-existentes. A dissertação utiliza-se desse conceito, assim como o de gênio não-original , de Marjorie Perloff, e o de pós-produção , de Nicolas Bourriaud, para analisar a figura do escritor-apropriador e as consequências, na atualidade, dos procedimentos de seleção e deslocamento no que diz respeito à questão da autoria: trata-se de verificar como tais práticas operam a quebra de fronteiras entre as posições de leitor e autor. Pretende-se investigar também de que maneira as obras selecionadas como corpus propõe formas não tradicionais de construir escrita e leitura, e suas relações com as artes plásticas e as novas ferramentas tecnológicas. / [en] In 2011, the poet, artist and University of Pennsylvania teacher Kenneth Goldmisth launched the book Uncreative Writing, in which he designates the processes that leads to literary works where the text is not originally written by the author, but rewritten or transcript from pre-existant fonts – with no change in the original text – or edited and rearranged by descontextualization and recontextualization of these found texts. The dissertation makes use of this concept, as well as of unoriginal genius , by Marjorie Perloff, and post- -production , by Nicolas Bourriaud, to analyze the figure of the writerappropriator and the consequences, today, of the procedures of selection and displacement in relation to the ideia of authorship. The work verifies how those practices operate a fracture in the borders between the reader and the author positions. Also, the dissertation intends to investigate how the literary works on the selected corpus propose non-traditional ways of reading and writing, and how they relate to the plastic arts and the new technological tools.
