Gilles Deleuze: Four Forms of Montage

Page 25: Digital Storytelling On The Go

Four Basic Forms of Montage (+1)

1. Organic Montage

• Montage follows the interplay between the dramatic moments of the story/stories.

2. Dialectical Montage

• Montage follows a rhythm set by the logical components of a thesis.

3. Montage by Quantity of Movement

• Montage follows the dynamics of the action inside the frame.

4. Montage by Quantity of Light

• Montage follows the physical and symbolic interplay of light/dark inside the frame.

• Animating the Image Via Montage

• Montage aims to reintroduce the idioms of live film to still (or near-still) images.
