- Summary:
- 'The Shape of Motion' develops a method for analyzing movement on screen by identifying patterns or shapes of motion - called 'motion forms' - across a wide range of examples from the history of cinema. By examining a single motion form, each chapter rethinks persistent assumptions in film studies about cinema as a medium.
