Explosion In Art
Learn to recreate the whole of a work of art, suggesting a certain meaning through a key "sequence".
If we want to decipher the evolution of Eisenstein’s artistic thinking, its genesis, then knowing his biography is essential. An early experience, from the period when he was in the school of genius officers, namely, the study of the "Mining" discipline, is at its basis.
"Explosion" in art, especially when it comes to an explosion of feelings, so a pathetic one, is built using the same formula as in the field of explosives. Obviously, the means themselves are different, but the mechanism remains identical. In both cases, there are three precise phases. In the case of mines: pressure rises, the retention shell explodes, the blast spreads the shrapnel. In film: pressure rises, the pathetic explosion follows which is transformed in a different torrent of feelings. For me, explosion is not possible without the existence of a detonator.
In film, the role of the detonator is taken by a sequence of "emphasis" – of which "Potemkin" is full of – which highlights the explosion, interposed between the moment of increasing tension and the following sequence. *
Are you able to pencil "explosion" in art, interposing the moment of increasing tension with the key sequence?
Leadership resembles a setting for a film about the course of your life, only if you penetrate in its special atmosphere, full of vulnerability and tension. And characters and events, when they find a correspondent in real life, have not only the role of animating you, but that of representing you as well as a connection to something above you, from which you have to extract the essence of an art beyond its specific language.
If you penetrate into the decor of this film, you are forced to add value to the top elements of the script itself. The film does not fulfill the role of a communicator of a particular message, but rather manages to crochet a picture of yourself that doesn’t yet exist in objective reality.
"Explosion" in art, identifying its role in building a custom theme, based on the structure of concepts that touch the sensitivity of man in depth and at the same time offers a dose of suspense and challenge to curiosity, is obtained by interposing the moment of increasing tension with that key sequence in which every element is more strongly felt than the sum of all those before it.
In turn, increasing of tension is produced when the viewer is subjected to a psychological pressure. He is introduced into a certain context of life experience that he feels he experiences fully, but from which he doesn’t receive answers and has no idea what could happen to him. He knows that something that is not in sight does not yet exist and seeks to get his hands on it. It can be something good or something bad.
The only innovation event adhering to the sustainable development of leadership aims at the artistic quality of a work of art whose means of creating emotional effects are accentuated by the possible range of action of a "detonator" releasing the force of a message with a high social impact.
The key sequence constitutes that stage of the viewer’s entry into a radical process of transformation, where everything is focused into one spot. Basically, after everything from the intense atmosphere was subjected to the intense gaze of the mind, the viewer suddenly discovers the mystery ! But not just in any way, but in an emotional way, revealing or reactive !
The key sequence is therefore a formula that includes many details of effect. It is a crucial moment in playing back the sensation of the unexpected that changes the face of things, accompanied by reasons and evidence of certain "presences or foreign landmarks" – taking the form of segments or aspects of the world that in reality you would’ve have noticed or seemed to be just pure fantasy.
To amplify the impact of leadership in the service of innovation, you need to put the added value of the notions you are addressing through powerful associations of ideas and ideas that make a topic a rarer subject to a more distinct reality.
Explosion In Art occurs when you manage to introduce that "something" behind what you want people to see, leaving behind an important clue.
The key sequence in the movie "World War Z" that I saw last night, without which the construction of intrigue wouldn’t have been possible, overturns every expectation. It is represented as a message:
"Mother Nature is a serial killer. No one can kill better, no one is more creative. But as all serial killers, it cannot help itself to want to get caught. What good would all this be if no one would take credit for it? Therefore, it leaves breadcrumbs.
The difficult part, the one for which you spend a decade in school, is to see the breadcrumbs as clues. Sometimes, what you believe you saw – the most brutal aspect of the virus, proves to be the very crack in the armor. It loves to disguise its weakness in strength."
Leadership is structured around the image which, suggesting a certain significance, can recompose the whole. In leadership, "explosion" is not possible without the existence of a "detonator."
