	SoundClick artist: Kuleshov Effect - Organic, honest and powerful rock.
		The 'Kuleshov Effect' is the name given to a cinematic montage effect demonstrated by Russian filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in about 1918.
		Kuleshov edited a short film in which shots of the face of Ivan Mozzhukhin (a Tsarist matinee idol) are alternated with various other shots (a plate of soup, a woman, a child's coffin).
		The film was shown to an audience who believed that the expression on Mozzhukhin's face was different each time he appeared, depending on whether he was `looking at' the plate of soup, the woman, or the child's coffin, showing an expression of hunger, desire or grief respectively.

	Central Europe Review - Film: Lev Kuleshov
		Kuleshov's Porter even says to her "Your heart is beating too loudly, Dulcie,"[22] one of several significant uses of the heart motif in the film and a clear reference to the real-life O Henry's refusal to write about her.
		Kuleshov enigmatically labels this on an inter-title a "happy ending." The irony is enhanced by the use of music again, which links the ending to the escapism of the silent film version of Porter's story.
		Unlike O Henry, Kuleshov refused to remain silent about the reality he saw around him, and his last act of resistance in the role of director was to create a brave work that presented his experiences as an artist and was a bitter comment about a reality that seemed too absurd to be real.

		Kuleshov's early montage experiments, as well as their role in establishing montage cinema on a theoretical basis, had profound implications for the concepts of originality and authorship in the making of films, the same concepts which were later foregrounded by the Nouvelle Vague critics and by Roland Barthes.
		Kuleshov showed that, as Barthes said of the literary text, a film's "unity lies not in its origin but in its destination" (Barthes 148); that is, it is in the mind of the spectator rather than the auteur that the film's fragments are unified and given meaning.
		While Kuleshov was always careful to keep his films clear and 'intelligible to the masses', the later development of montage cinema in the work of Eisenstein and Dziga Vertov led to films which were considered by the Soviet authorities to be unusable as propaganda, being too abstruse and difficult for peasants and workers to understand.

	Lev Kuleshov - Films as director:, Other films:
		Lev Kuleshov is known to Russian filmmakers quite simply as the "father of Soviet cinema." He began his career in cinema before the Revolution working with Evgeni Bauer and became one of Soviet cinema's leading film directors and theorists.
		It was the desire to establish a theoretical foundation for the legitimacy of cinema as an art form independent of theatre that led Kuleshov to be the first to distinguish montage as the key element specific to cinema in an article written in 1917.
		Kuleshov would produce an "action score" for every movement in his films.

		Part B. In the 1920s, Russian filmmaker Lev Kuleshov conducted a series of experiments designed to demonstrate that when two separate shots are projected in succession, the viewer assumes a connection between them.
		Kuleshov's viewers—who interpreted the sequence as a man and a woman meeting at the gate in front of the mansion—had, in essence, inferred a whole narrative on the basis of seeing only portions of it.
		To illustrate the Kuleshov effect, show your students drawings or photographs (as described above) that are not necessarily related, but which, when viewed together, can be mentally connected in time and space to create a brief scene.

	Lev Kuleshov
		The famous "Kuleshov experiment" was central to the development of montage and led Kuleshov to the belief that inter-cutting, rather than performance, was the prime basis of filmic expression.
		Kuleshov's own films, however, are far from arid; shrewdly adapting popular genres, they are playful, relaxed and experimental, and lack the hysteria of Eisenstein or Pudovkin.
		He moved ably from satire (Mr West) to melodrama (By The Law), and his reliance on montage did not prevent him from eliciting some splendid performances from actors such as his wife, Alexandra Kokhlova.

	Lev Kuleshov
		It was in Lev Kuleshov's film workshop in 1923, that Eisenstein experienced his first direct contact with the apparatus of cinema.
		Kuleshov, recognised by many as the founding father of Soviet cinema, was the first person to use the term 'montage' in relation to film.
		Thus, adopting a similar position to Pudovkin, Kuleshov argued that montage functioned, not in terms of collision and conflict, but in terms of linkage and unification.

	Kuleshov Experiment
		Lev Kuleshov was an early Russian filmmaker who believed that juxtaposing two unrelated images could convey a separate meaning.
		In his experiment he filmed Mozhukhin, a famous Russian actor, and shots of a bowl of soup, a girl, a teddy bear, and a child's coffin.
		Kuleshov used the experiment to indicate the usefulness and effectiveness of film editing.

	Understatement and the Kuleshov Effect in Kubrick's 2001
		Then "Kuleshov intercut it with various shots the exact content of which he forgot in his later years..." but which, according to his associate Vsevolod Pudovkin, comprised a bowl of soup, a woman in a coffin, and a child with a toy bear.
		Kuleshov switched the shots, so the starving man saw the open door and the prisoner looked at soup, and there was no noticeable difference.
		Kuleshov performed no experiments to this end, but the principle is the same: we garner from the film an emotion, a strong one, that the film does not actually show us.

		Lev Vladimirovich Kuleshov was born in 1899 in Tambov, Russia.
		Kuleshov is best known for his famous workshop (founded in 1919), a collective that included Boris Barnet and Vsevolod Pudovkin, among others.

	World Cinema: Directors -- Lev Kuleshov (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Since there was no film stock, they practised their ideas in a series of experiments called "films without film" and developed the notion of the "Kuleshov effect" in which, through montage, each shot acquired a different shade of meaning according to its place in the sequence.
		But Kuleshov never believed in Sergei Eisenstein's notion of "typage," preferring instead to train actors or, as he called them, "models" (naturshchiki), aiming for maximum screen expressivity with minimum gesture and effect.
		Kuleshov was the founding father of Soviet cinema: Pudovkin once remarked, "We make films, Kuleshov made cinema."

		One of the most significant theoretical discoveries in the history of film is the effect discovered by Lev Kuleshov in the early 1920s in the Soviet Union.
		The effect discovered by Kuleshov and its practical use by filmmakers in the editing process pertain mainly to the contextual relationships within the structure of the film (or other audio-visual) work as a whole.
		The Kuleshov effect is also an illustration of the power of context.

		Lev Kuleshov (1899-1970), born in Tambov, Russia, was the first aesthetic theorist of film art and one of the first cinema directors under the Bolshevik regime.
		He developed what came to be known as the "Kuleshov effect" in which, through montage, each shot acquired a different shade of meaning according to its place in the sequence.
		Kuleshov and Sergei Eisenstein disagreed on what the so-called "montage" was, and it's amazing that D.W. Griffith produced "The Birth of a Nation" and "Intolerance" without using the word.

	Brickfilms.com :: View topic - The Kuleshov Effect
		Lev Kuleshov was an early (1920s) soviet filmmaker who experimented with montage in movies.
		He took a single shot of an actor showing no expression and intermitted it with shots of a dead woman, a dish of soup and a playing girl.
		I think this example of the Kuleshov Effect and the clever use of montage shows that a talented film-maker can bring characters to life without using facial expressions or relying on voiceacting even.

	LawGeek: We fought the Kuleshov effect and The Law won?
		Ergo, when Kuleshov acquired his films, he could remix them anyway he wanted because he was only manipulating the one copy he owned, not making any additional ones.
		I might point out that there seems to be some mixing of the Kuleshov effect, "moral rights" and first sale doctrine in all of this.
		That is, the Kuleshov effect is merely the fact that the semantics of a piece of media can change depending on neighboring (in time or space) media.

	Film Editing \| Activity 4 \| Teacher's Resource Guide \| YMI, Ltd./AMPAS
		Film editing can have its own unique logic as well, functioning in much the same manner as the brain with seemingly jumbled thoughts and images creating their own individual meaning.
		The groundwork for many of these techniques, later used by Alfred Hitchcock and others, was laid by a group of Soviet filmmakers—most notably Lev Kuleshov, Sergei Eisenstein and Vsevolod Pudovkin—who, in the early 1920s, began to experiment with film style and technique and especially with montage.
		Montage, or collision editing, is done by splicing together a rapid sequence of carefully selected shots to evoke a specific emotional or intellectual response.
