The Cinema Effect-used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
It Has Been Said That All Cinema Is A Special Effect. In This Highly Original Examination Of Time In Film Sean Cubitt Tries To Get At The Root Of The Uncanny Effect Produced By Images And Sounds That Dont Quite Align With Reality. What Is It That Cinema Does? Cubitt Proposes A History Of Images In Motion From A Digital Perspective, For A Digital Audience.From The Viewpoint Of Art History, An Image Is Discrete, Still. How Can A Moving Imageconstructed From Countless Constituent Imageseven Be Considered An Image? And Where In Time Is An Image In Motion Located? Cubitt Traces The Complementary Histories Of Two Forms Of The Image/Motion Relationshipthe Stillness Of The Image Combined With The Motion Of The Body (Exemplified By What Cubitt Calls The 'Protocinema Of Railway Travel') And The Movement Of The Image Combined With The Stillness Of The Body (Exemplified By Melodrama And The Magic Lantern). He Argues That The Magic Of Cinema Arises From The Intertwining Relations Between Different Kinds Of Movement, Different Kinds Of Time, And Different Kinds Of Space.He Begins With A Discussion Of 'Pioneer Cinema,' Focusing On The Contributions Of French Cinematic Pioneers In The Late Nineteenth And Early Twentieth Centuries. He Then Examines The Sound Cinema Of The 1930S, Examining Film Effects In Works By Eisenstein, Jean Renoir, And Hollywoods Rko Studio. Finally He Considers What He Calls 'Post Cinema,' Examining The Postwar Development Of The 'Spatialization' Of Time Through Slow Motion, Freezeframe, And Steadicam Techniques. Students Of Film Will Find Cubitts Analyses Of Noncanonical Films Like Sam Peckinpahs Pat Garrett And Billy The Kid As Enlightening As His Fresh Takes On Such Classics As Renoirs Rules Of The Game.
