Features: You make conscious or unconscious decisions about beauty every day. When you choose what clothes to wear, organize a room, select a bouquet of flowers for the dining table, or even judge distances while driving, you are engaging in basic perceptual and aesthetic activities. Even the phrase you often say, "I know what I like," requires aesthetic judgment. When you consciously decide to hang a photo on the wall, choose a color for a new car, or take a photo through a frame, you may be making decisions about beauty. This book provides various methods and techniques for clarifying, enhancing, and interpreting events in television, computer, and film displays. It describes the main elements of aesthetics—light, space, time/movement, and sound—as well as their application in film and television.
