In Sargent's 1916 Chapter XXX, what does 'scene' mean there, and what makes a scene an interior or an exterior?
1916 practice (Sargent): in Chapter XXX 'scene' means the stage setting (a set or a location), not the action played in it; the action sense is left to the next chapter. A scene is interior if the viewer is meant to suppose an enclosed room and exterior if outdoors, wherever it is physically shot. The author only labels each scene interior or exterior and says what must appear; how it is made is the director's business. Built interiors are called sets; real outdoor places are locations.
