Resumo

Neste estudo, são estudadas as origens do cinema 4D por meio do ciclo gimmick de William Castle, desenvolvido entre 1958 e 1967. Os filmes de Castle estão situados na encruzilhada dos anos 1950, quando as tecnologias de exibição experimentam mudanças que procuram se distanciar da televisão através da espetacularidade: ampliação da tela, som estereofônico ou filmes em 3D. Nesse contexto, os filmes de Castle estão baseados na utilização de truques para criar uma experiência cinematográfica que podemos denominar “pré-imersiva”.
