Abstract
This article explores the collaboration between Aleksandr Rodchenko and Dziga Vertov on the intertitles for several issues of Vertov’s Kinopravda. While some Kinopravda issues (7, 13 and 14) are known to have been designed by Rodchenko, others offer clues to Rodchenko’s influence on, if not active contribution to their design, since they are distinct from the later intertitles created by Ivan Beliakov. Rodchenko used a range of materials and designs to make the titles interactive, engaging with constructivist design of the period. He allowed Vertov to focus on the word by turning it into an object of the cinematic world captured on film, and using it as within a visual rhythmical structure.
