Summary: This essay analyzes the growing influence of the aesthetics and narrative components of videogames in contemporary movies, using the film “300”, by director Zack Snyder, as a case study. Editing, sound design and large-scale narrative – the division in three acts becomes more fragile, shifted by a structure in which the hero needs to overcome successive obstacles with a growing degree of difficulty – are some of the standards of what we could call Playstation Aesthetics. This variation of the poetics of cinema intensifies the so-called MTV Aesthetics, which was based in accelerated editing techniques and electronic-modified sounds, and has been prevailing since the 1980’s.

Montagem, desenho do som e estrutura narrativa – a divisão em três atos se torna mais frágil, substituída por um movimento dramático em que o herói precisa superar obstáculos sucessivos com grau de dificuldade crescente – são alguns dos pilares do que chamamos de Estética Playstation. Esta variação da poética do cinema intensifica a chamada Estética MTV, baseada em cortes rápidos e sons tratados eletronicamente, e que tem sido predominante desde a década de 1980.Universidade Federal da Paraíba2011-12-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoAvaliado pelos paresTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/cm/article/view/11717Culturas Midiáticas; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2010)Culturas Midiáticas; Vol. 3 Núm. 1 (2010)Culturas Midiáticas; v. 3 n. 1 (2010)2763-93981983-5930reponame:Revista Culturas Midiáticas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)instacron:UFPBporhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/index.php/cm/article/view/11717/6741Carreiro, Rodrigoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-02-24T22:13:12Zoai:periodicos.ufpb.br:article/11717Revistahttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/ojs2/index.php/cm/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufpb.br/ojs2/index.php/cm/oairevistaculturasmidiaticas@gmail.com || periodicos.ufpb@gmail.com2763-93981983-5930opendoar:2021-02-24T22:13:12Revista Culturas Midiáticas (Online) - Universidade Federal da Paraíba (UFPB)false
