The world of films is quite interesting. It takes a long time to make a film. Many types of techniques are also used in this, so that the experience of watching the film can be improved. But not only is something different done in camera technique and editing, but sometimes some changes are also made in the script which breathe life into a scene. Today we are going to tell you about one such technique, which was used in many films and perhaps you liked it, but you do not know why it happened in that scene.
‘Fourth Wall Break’ is one such technique which is often used in films. This special type of technique is often used to connect the audience with a particular scene, process or actor playing on the screen. You have seen this technique many times, so let us tell you what is ‘Fourth Wall Break’?
What is ‘Fourth Wall Break’?
To make a film successful, as important as the acting, direction and story of the actors are, it is equally important for the audience to connect with the story and actors of the film. In such situations, many times some techniques are adopted which connect these connections in a very good manner. One such technique is ‘Fourth Wall Break’.
In this technique, while acting in the middle of the scene, the actor looks directly towards the camera and starts talking. In such a situation, the actor speaks the dialogues of the film, but here his conversation is not with any other actor but directly with the audience sitting behind the wall of the camera. In such a situation, the connection between the audience and the actor increases further in the film and they feel as if the actor is talking to them.
Used in these films
Now if we talk about such example, the best example is the character of Kader Khan in the film ‘Ghar Ho To Aisa’. In this film, Kader Khan many times gestures towards the camera and the camera i.e. we as the audience goes near him and listens to him. This technique has been blended very well in these scenes which brings a good comic relief to the film.
Paresh Rawal’s character does something similar in the film Mr. and Mrs. Khiladi, where he talks like a commentator and relates directly to the audience. In the film ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’, there is an entire sequence based on this technique where different characters talk about love, or in the sequence of the film ‘Chhe Din Ladki’, the girl looks directly at the camera and tells the counting of days. .
