520 Blending unconventional film theory with nontraditional
psychology to provide a radically different set of
critical methods and propositions about cinema, Moving
Image Theory: Ecological Considerations looks at film
through its communication properties rather than its
social or political implications. Drawing on the tenets of
James J. Gibson's ecological theory of visual perception,
the fifteen essays and forty-one illustrations gathered
here by editors Joseph D. Anderson and Barbara Fisher
Anderson offer a new understanding of how moving images
are seen and understood. Focusing on a more
straightforward perception of the world and cinema in an
attempt to move film theory closer to reality, Moving
Image Theory proposes that we should first understand how
cinema communicates information about the representation
of the three-dimensional world through properties of image
and sound
