This continues the discussion that was launched in 2014 in Visual Anthropology, 27(5): 436–456. NotesProfilmy: The actor takes into consideration the fact that he is in representation—whatever the forms are—in front of a camera and during the time of the shoot. The actor always has an intention, except if he is filmed without knowing it. Even in that case, if he agrees on his image during the editing, we could suggest that there would be a kind of retroactive profilmy.Additional informationNotes on contributorsMarc Henri PiaultMARC HENRI PIAULT, a French anthropologist, has filmed extensively in France and West Africa but now divides his time between Paris and Rio de Janeiro.
