Hugo Münsterberg's Photoplay (Jordan Schonig, Binghamton University)
I found this video very interesting because it explains very well Munsterberg's theory. I am interested in both of the things film and psychology and because of that I enjoyed hearing things from his book where he combined both.
I like how Munsterberg approached the film theory by asking questions of whether film is an independent art or it is connected to the history of theater. I also found fascinating the examples with movement used in the video.
As someone who is also interested in photography I like how there is also mentioned the connection between the photography and film and La Jette illusion of depth.
Keep that interest alive! Studying Munsterberg is classic film theory goodness! The concepts continue to be full of wonder and possibility! I'm glad you go so much out of it!
