DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Sergei Eisenstein Soviet Union

His montage theory treats film editing like printmaking technique, where individual shots combine to create meaning through precise juxtaposition and visual rhythm.

 David Lynch USA

He deliberately incorporates textured, grainy aesthetics and prints within his films, while his visual style mimics etching and engraving with high contrast and intricate detail.
