Sommario/riassunto

Nous vivons en Occident dans un type de société qui se soumet sans grande résistance à l’impératif d’une production et d’une consommation d’objets atteignant des proportions alarmantes. Ce phénomène pose des questions aussi bien aux pays du centre industrialisé qu’à ceux de la périphérie en mal d’industrialisation réelle ou fantasmée. Quelles questions ? Quels genres de problèmes ? Le titre et le sous-titre du présent cahier indiquent déjà les grands axes de la problématique que nous exposons non pas de façon exhaustive — il s’en faut de beaucoup — mais du moins introduire, en essayant de soulever quelques pans de ce long rideau d’évidences qui cache si bien les caractéristiques essentielles des objets.

Sommario/riassunto

This book argues that 3D films are becoming more sophisticated in utilising stereoscopic effects for storytelling purposes. Since Avatar (2009), we have seen a 3D revival marked by its integration with new digital technologies. With this book, the author goes beyond exploring 3D's spectacular graphics and considers how 3D can be used to enhance visual storytelling. The chapters include visual comparisons between 2D and 3D to highlight their respective narrative features; an examination of the narrative tropes and techniques used by contemporary 3D filmmakers; and a discussion of the narrative implications brought by the coexistence of flatness and depth in 3D visuality. In demonstrating 3D cinematic aesthetics and storytelling, Yong Liu analyses popular films such as Hugo (2011), Life of Pi (2012), Gravity (2013), Star Trek Into Darkness (2013, and The Great Gatsby (2013). The book isan investigation into contemporary forms of



stereoscopic storytelling derived from a unique, long-existing mode of cinematic illusions. .
