MOVING THE FRAME THROUGH SPACE
The Aesthetics of Camera Movement
by Chris Fawcett
"In theatre, the action is aimed at the audience.
In cinema, the audience is aimed at the action."
Theatre has experimented with moving sets, but until the invention of cinema,
it was problematic to portray the commonplace experience of a moving perspective in a changing world.
The ability to pick up a camera and move it through space is a challenging new freedom.
