It explains how Screen Tests—about 500 portraits shot 1964–1966—were recorded with a stationary 16mm camera on silent black-and-white rolls, projected in slow motion, and exhibited in sequences that invite self-recognition. The text also discusses compilations, multimedia happenings, variations in lighting and shot style, and the later institutional preservation of Warhol’s films.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/","Literature",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/13-most-beautiful-songs-for-andy-warhols-screen-tests/437982/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/13-most-beautiful-songs-for-andy-warhols-screen-tests/437982.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Riley West","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-30","2026-09-29",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What does the text say motivated Warhol to make Screen Tests?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"Warhol’s process aimed to capture real experience and let people reveal themselves.

 \nBEAUTIFUL..SONGS FOR,ANDY  \nWARHOL'SSCREEN TESTS233EN  \n2019  \n13 Most Beautiful.…  \nSongs for Andy Warhol'sScreen Tests  \nThe Sereen Tests  \nWarhol's filmmaking process has to do not only with his fascinationwith people,but with his desire to capture the actual experience oflife.As he noted in his book,POPism:The Warhol '60s:“What I likedwas chunks of time all together,every real moment...I only wantedto find great people and let them be themselves...and Id flm themfor a certain length of time and that would be the movie.\"  \nWarhol's Screen Tests,which number approximately 500,are beauti-ful and revealing portraits of hundreds of different individuals,shot between 1964 and 1966.The subjects are Factory denizens andvisitors-both famous and anonymous.They were asked to pose andwere recorded by Warhol's stationary 16mm Bolex camera on silent,black and white,100-foot rolls of film.Each screen test was exactlythe same length,lasting only as long as the roll of film.The result-ing films were projected in slow motion so that each lasted approxi-mately four minutes.For exhibition,the Screen Tests were strungtogether in a sequence,inducing an almost hypnotic reverie thatcould \"help the audiences get more acquainted with themselves,\"asWarhol once said.  \nAlthough these film portraits were referred to by the Hollywoodterm of“screen test,”none of them appear to have been used for thepurpose of actually testing or auditioning prospective actors.Manywere included in shifting compilations such as the flatteringly-titled13 Most Beautiful Women,13 Most Beautiful Boys,and 50 Fantas-tics and 50 Personalities,which were projected in different versionseach time they were screened,depending on who was in the audi-ence or who Warhol wanted to please.In her catalogue raisonné,Andy Warhol Sereen Tests,Callie Angell notes that Warhol left 89reels of film marked“13”-42 Screen Tests of 35 different men and47 Screen Tests of 30 different women.  \nAlso,Screen Tests and other Warhol fllms were used,accompaniedby strobes,mirror ball reflections and other visual effects,as part ofthe light show for his 1966-67 multi-media happenings,Andy War-hol Up-Tight and the Exploding Plastic Inevitable,which featuredthe music of the Velvet Underground and Nico.  \nIt has often been written that Warhol simply turned on the cameraand walked away.However,as can be seen in a 1964 film,made by  \nthe British Broadcasting Company,called Cheese!Or What ReallyDid Happen in Andy Warhol's Studio,Warhol was actively engagedin shooting usan Sontag's Screen Test.He set up the camera,framedthe shot,and engaged the sitter before filming.Here,Warhol chatswith Sontag,answering her questions about her on-screen behaviorand suggesting that she move as little as possible.For other ScreenTests,an assistant might have loaded the camera,while Warholstayed in the background and chatted with friends or visitors whowere there to be a part of the experience.Whatever the interaction orpresumed lack of interaction between Warhol and his subject,he usedthe filming process to communicate with and learn about people.Even when he wasn't in the room,the camera remained as a surro-gate for his presence.  \nMany of Warhol's Screen Tests ft the standard formula-the subjectand the camera almost motionless for the duration of the fllm,withthe result as close to a “living portrait”as possible.However,withinthis format,there are subtle variations.Starkly lit with a singlelamp,a glowering Paul America and the intense Susan Bottomly aresharply contrasted by the dark background,while Ann Buchananand Edie Sedgwick's Screen Tests were fully lit,allowing the viewerto notice every subtle change in their almost unmoving faces.Inaddition,there are a number of Screen Tests that entirely divergefrom this format,some using wide shots that take in the sitter's bodyas well as their face,one-takes that start with a close up on a facialfeature,such as an eye,or teeth or lips,and then slowly zoom out toreveal th","cbCaiuKHcT7szhBf","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuKHcT7szhBf","pdf",2213091,44,"English","# Warhol and the purpose of filming\n## The Screen Tests: method,
