1. Djiga Vertov is a representative of the Soviet Union's "movie eye school". It is advocated that the aesthetics of the universe should be grasped through the eyes of the film, that is, the eyes of the film can show the whole world to people, thus denying the story film. He admires newsreels and believes that the function of film is to record reality truthfully. Therefore, in "The Man with the Camera", the narrative function of the film is broken, and everything in the world is displayed by recording the fragments of life in reality through the lens. 2. The group "Cinema Eyes" aims to capture "life ingested in the unperceived", advocating "revolution through newsreel" for the film of truth, in response to the constructivists' call for the elimination of "art itself". Through the new film language, what is conveyed on the screen is a deformed reality, showing the ability of "movie eyes" to manipulate time and space. The pictures in "The Man with the Camera" themselves use film special effects, combining the mechanics and movement of matter to deliberately construct a deformed space. At the same time, the montage combination between different time and space is flexible and changeable, capturing life from a novel perspective, which has a kind of Revolutionary based on reality. 3. Influence: Vertov has advanced consciousness. He has discovered and tried the possibility of auditory representation of film in the silent film era. To shoot people's thoughts unexpectedly, directly organize human thoughts and behaviors, so as to unify the artistic and ideological components of the film. The film directly shows the scene shown in the theater, combining the viewer, the photographer, and the film into one. In the climax, the photographer riding a bicycle shuttles through the crowded wave. Vertov cuts it quickly and repeats it. , expressing the pioneering ideas of photography or imagery in the era.
