138 p.o.v. number 13 March 2002 So I think, in conclusion, it was less painful for the “fictionalists” to make illustrative, rhetorical and lecture-like films confirming the beliefs they already had about reality. And that narrative, observational documentary, the chosen bias for the course, was not really their métier. Let me make a final observation. On that Norwegian course the typical “documentarist” student personality, particularly of those who were best at gathering observational film material, was usually not particularly structuralist. It was as if in order to be open to what was spontaneously happening in front of the observational documentary camera, the film maker should not be too consciously occupied with how the scene being filmed should fit into the whole film, otherwise they would miss the scene. They have to be very concretely present in the now of the filming process. It was my impression that the students I worked with who were best at filming observationally, were often not so good as editors. It was as if their “documentarist” abilities, vitally necessary in the observational filming process, were different from the more structuralist and perhaps “fictionalist” requirements of the editing. Conversely, the best editors were often found among the students I thought of as being more “fictionalists.” I felt that this probably meant that the editing of narrative structured, observational documentary is actually rather fiction-like and therefore liable to suit “fictionalist” students.
