Representation of motion and space in video and cinematic displays
Abstract
The relationship between the perceptual theory and motion pictures is investigated. Various means for producing moving pictures and their characteristics are described. The physics of recording and display procedures and the limits these procedure impose on the effective stimuli for apparent movement are discussed. The use of movement to present the shape and form of objects, the layout of objects and surfaces, and the form and structure of events is examined. The purposes and types of cuts, and the comprehensibility of cuts are considered.
