Doane traces the history of scalar transformations from early cinema to the contemporary use of digital technology. In the early years of cinema, audiences regarded the monumental close-up, particularly of the face, as grotesque and often horrifying, even as it sought to expose a character's interiority through its magnification of detail and expression. Today, large-scale technologies such as IMAX and sound surround strive to dissolve the cinematic frame and invade the spectator's space, "immersing" them in image and sound. The notion of immersion, Doane contends, is symptomatic of a crisis of location in technologically mediated space and a reconceptualization of position, scale, and distance. In this way, cinematic scale and its modes of spatialization and despatialization have shaped the modern subject, interpolating them into the incessant expansion of commodification"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references (pages 325 - 342) and index. 505 0 $a The delirium of a minimal unit -- The cinematic manufacture of scale, or historical vicissitudes of the close-up -- At face value -- Screens, female faces, and modernities -- The location of the image : projection, perspective, and scale -- The concept of immersion : mediated space, media space, and the location of the subject. 650 0 $a Cinematography $x History. 650 0 $a Digital cinematography. 650 0 $a Motion picture audiences $x Psychology. 650 0 $a Space in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Place (Philosophy) in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Participatory theater. 650 7 $a Cinematography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00861484 650 7 $a Digital cinematography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00893633 650 7 $a Motion picture audiences $x Psychology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027120 650 7 $a Participatory theater. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01054039 650 7 $a Place (Philosophy) in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904284 650 7 $a Space in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01904753 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Doane, Mary Ann. $t Bigger than life. $d Durham : Duke University Press, 2021 $z 9781478021780 $w (DLC) 2021011902 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117015019.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC44DC64EE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
