MEDIA: Kuleshov Experiment

• Kuleshov and Eisenstein experimented with cut up footage and how, depending on the sequence, it would get different responses from the audience - demonstrating that context is all important. 
• This technique has been used by political film makers for propaganda purposes. 
• This technique established the role cutaways have on creating meanings and representations. 

In this task: the clip that I duplicated for each scenario was of one of my fellow classmates laughing. The 3 different scenarios I used to change the meaning and representation of the laughing clip were: tripping over, crying because of the passing of a pet fish and taking selfies.
