How do filmmakers guide viewers through the frame using the movement of bodies on screen? What do they seek to communicate with their cinematic choreography, and how were those choices shaped by industrial conditions? This book is about the powerful relationship between human movement and cinema. It demonstrates how filmmakers have used moving bodies and dance as key storytelling elements and how media industries' changing investment in this aspect of film style impacts filmmakers' choices in portraying movement on screen.
