Italian to English translations [PRO]
Art/Literary - Cinema, Film, TV, Drama / cinematography technique
Italian term or phrase: repertorio
Questo è un tipo di presentazione di scene all'interno di un film. Non mi viene il termine e non sto avendo successo a trovare il suo equivalente inglese online, eppure è una tecnica abbastanza comune, lo vediamo in tanti film. Vi dò qualche esempio di come viene indicato nel copione in oggetto e vi riporto anche la definizione del termine da Treccani.

es. 1: REPERTORIO - MONTAGE PIAZZE ITALIANE - GIORNO

es. 2: INSERT: REPERTORIO. In campo lungo il tiro, XXXX sbaglia!

es. 3: REPERTORIO DELLA PARTITA DEL MONDIALE 19XX

es. 4: REPERTORIO - MONTAGE PIAZZE ITALIANE - GIORNO

Definizione (credo si tratti di questa) da Treccani: In cinematografia, pezzi di r., pezzi di pellicola raffiguranti scene e quadri generici (vedute di città, paesi, mare, montagna, folla, incendio, ecc.)

mi sembra coincidere con la def. di Treccani
In cinematografia, pezzi di r., pezzi di pellicola raffiguranti scene e quadri generici (vedute di città, paesi, mare, montagna, folla, incendio, ecc.) che possono essere acquistati da una ditta di produzione o da un produttore che abbia bisogno di uno di detti quadri per un determinato film e non abbia la possibilità di effettuare la ripresa diretta

Archive footage is mentioned in the link above:

Stock footage, and similarly, archive footage, library pictures, and file footage is film or video footage that can be used again in other films.

Notes to answerer
Asker: No, this is definitely not it. I know what you are talking about, but it's a second meaning of this word. This is what happens when you are watching a movie and all of a sudden in the movie they show a bunch of shots that, for example, are in different places and/or different times.

Asker: Dandamesh, sorry I was too hasty. Your understanding of what they meant in the end was correct. However unfortunately the term proposed is not screenplay terminology. Too bad Giovanni Guarnieri did not answer, since he came closest with Archive footage.
