The traditional rules for
editing from shot to shot had always tried to give the impression of a
continuous action taking place in front of the camera. Dziga Vertov, the
director, contested this old-fashioned filming style in the movie Man with
a Movie Camera. ... The camera
man, the main character in the movie, was used as the vehicle to show the
globe a new perspective on life. ... The
other reason for the directors use of cuts and camera movements was he
wanted to make sure people remembered that they were watching a movie and
that they were not in some fantasy land. ... Another interesting
sequence was when the camera man was shot by another camera. The camera
man was on one carriage and he was being filmed from another carriage. ...

camera to view both vertical and horizontal motion. ... Even going back to the working motif, the camera zeroed in
