【 摘 要 】

Through the analysis of two series of machinimas (Halomon and Garrymon) remediating the animated series Pokémon in other video games, this research aims to study the articulation of the rhetorical and narrative processes of this form of video game remix. Specifically, this paper questions how the intrinsic polyphony of machinima (which always refers simultaneously to several media substrates and fictional universes) determines its narrative and characterizes in advance the type of fiction that it can construct. Various rhetorical figures that are “salient” within the videos are identified in order to show their impact on the construction of the narrative. These processes are grouped into two categories: figures producing ruptures in the narrative framework (fragmentation, paradoxes, metalepses, and mises en abyme) and figures manifesting the indexicality of machinima, underlining the “narration under constraint” aspect of such productions (resemantizations, metaphors and caricatures).
