TEXT А. Film Acting
The work of a film actor is different from that of a stage actor. All that is essential and effective on the stage - the wide gesture, the contrasting make-up, the declamatory style of speech - becomes false, ridiculous on the screen. The cinema has great advantages over the theatre because it enables the spectator to see tiny details in a close-up and hear shades of intonation.
The actor, who is cast for the role after numerous tests, reads the script and his lines. The director explains to him his aims, tells him, what he expects from him, introduces him to the atmosphere of the story, the character of the role and its reality. A good actor must give his own interpretation of the part, but it has to be an interpretation the director agrees with. The actor must see all his role in his mind and not only the little fragment he is taking part in at the moment. A good actor tries to embody the director's conception of the character, to express the director's idea through his own individuality, to enrich his portrayal of the character by his own observation of life and imagination.
Rene Clair describes the process of film shooting: as follows "The shooting of every fragment of a scene is done in the following manner. The actor receives a few brief instructions from the director and goes through the movements the director asks him to perform. During that time the director of photography has the camera placed in such a way as to follow the actor in his movements. While the electricians under the cameraman's control regulate the lights, the actor rehearses his movements and lines. When the director is satisfied with his performance and the sound engineer manages to have at least-one rehearsal in complete silence, when the director of photography finally regulates the last spot lights, then all is ready for the shooting. "Action!" The shooting begins. Usually the director takes a scene several times. It can happen that a fragment, which took a whole day's work to shoot, may occupy the screen just for a few seconds."

Fellini Films "Roma"
1. Rome. August 12. Federico Fellini in his new film "Roma" is covering the eternal city from Nero to neon. It is a portrait of Rome and a self-portrait. Fellini realizes memories and dreams publicly in Rome's streets and squares with photographers, electricians and an army of extras. These activities attract lots of people, who watch the proceedings.
Gigantic searchlights on high platforms sweep the facades of the square. Fellini is sitting in a sidecar beside his travelling camera, wheels back and forth along the track, shouting orders to a distant assistant. It is a rehearsal for a panning shot of the night-time marketplace.
There is a group of professional observers, who want to see the maestro at work. Fellini hurries to welcome the delegation, then breaks away for a short talk with a "Variety" correspondent.
