These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated: 1 00:00:00,250 --> 00:00:02,877 What happens when actors suddenly acknowledge 2 00:00:02,877 --> 00:00:06,131 the existence of the camera and our presence as viewers? 3 00:00:06,214 --> 00:00:10,051 It really depends on the plot, but it certainly breaks the illusion 4 00:00:10,176 --> 00:00:14,931 that we are simply witnessing the events and become part of the story. 5 00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:18,560 The term fourth wall comes from theater. 6 00:00:18,643 --> 00:00:22,105 Since the stage is traditionally a three walled box. 7 00:00:22,147 --> 00:00:27,444 The audience sees the play from the imaginary wall at the front of the stage. 8 00:00:27,527 --> 00:00:30,196 In cinema, the camera effect 9 00:00:30,196 --> 00:00:33,074 becomes that fourth wall. 10 00:00:33,074 --> 00:00:36,786 What is interesting about this technique from a storytelling perspective, 11 00:00:36,995 --> 00:00:40,206 is that the characters seem unaware of the fact 12 00:00:40,206 --> 00:00:44,210 that they are fictional characters within the story. 13 00:00:44,294 --> 00:00:49,007 We know the wall has been broken when a character acknowledges the audience. 14 00:00:49,090 --> 00:00:52,761 This could either be in knowing glance towards the camera 15 00:00:52,844 --> 00:00:56,139 or a monologue to the viewer sharing what he or 16 00:00:56,139 --> 00:00:59,726 she thinks about a situation that has just occurred. 17 00:00:59,809 --> 00:01:02,687 Great examples of breaking the fourth wall successfully 18 00:01:02,687 --> 00:01:05,899 can be found in Flight Fight Club, Annie Hall and Emily. 1681
