Abstract

This article applies the structure of semiotic modes, defined according to the elemental hierarchy postulated by Claude Zilberberg, which allows the event and the exercise to be conceived from the point of view of the tensive hypothesis. Based on a specific cinematographic analysis, the existence of another modality is proposed: the suspense, without thereby attempting to make the transition from a binary structure to a ternary one. In addition, we highlight the urgency of recognizing the viewer as a lived body, the pathemic-semiotic axis of the cinematographic experience, and narration as a both discursive and phenomenological process.
