Man with a Movie CameraEssay Preview: Man with a Movie CameraReport this essayVertov believed the camera (Cine/Kino Eye) captures more than the eye is capable of. It can draw attention to the real world by virtue of how images are �organised’

The observational mode stresses the nonintervention of the filmmaker. Such films cede “control” over events that occur in front of the camera… (Ibid., p. 38)
�This mode, characterised by long takes and handheld camera that seems simply to follow the action, suggests that the camera is offering a �window on the world’. This allows us to simply see what’s happening and make our mind up about the events (there is no voiceover).

It became possible with lightweight cameras and the ability to synchronously record sound.’
