Abstract

Looking Games is a research that gathers movie procedures as resources to resolve certain impasses in the theatrical contemporary scene, such as: a scene outside the traditional space, the body as figure and not as character and the text as materiality. In such theater, there is predominance of image over text. Cinematographic procedures were observed in some examples of the Modern Brazilian Cinema. This investigation resulted in a Collection of Games organized with the goal of providing teachers, directors and interested parties in general, with resources for the composition of scenes congruous with the concerns present in contemporary theater. All games selected served as slogan for the scenes in ISAURA S/A + 1 Hydraulic Experiment, a research practice which sought intercross creative and educational processes. This stage management was drawn up in collaboration with Collective Looking Games, a group of artists dedicated to the study of existing relationships between the theater and the cinema. The appropriation of film language can contribute to the operations present in theatricality post-cinema. (AU)
