Or is it merely heralding its rebirth? Are we witnessing the emergence of something entirely new? \u003ci\u003eCinema in the Digital Age\u003c\/i\u003e examines the fate of cinema in this new era, paying special attention to the technologies that are reshaping film and their cultural impact. Examining \u003ci\u003eFesten\u003c\/i\u003e (1998), \u003ci\u003eThe Blair Witch Project\u003c\/i\u003e (1999), \u003ci\u003eTimecode\u003c\/i\u003e (2000), \u003ci\u003eRussian Ark\u003c\/i\u003e (2002), \u003ci\u003eThe Ring\u003c\/i\u003e (2002), among others, this volume explores how these films are haunted by their analogue past and suggests that their signature element are their deliberate imperfections, whether those take the form of blurry or pixilated images, shakey camera work, or other elements reminding viewers of the human hand guiding the camera. Weaving together a rich variety of sources, \u003ci\u003eCinema in the Digital Age\u003c\/i\u003e provides a deeply humanistic look at the meaning of cinematic images in the era of digital perfection.","brand":"Nicholas Rombes","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48276673429755,"sku":"9781905674855","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781905674855.jpg?v=1772487944","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/cinema-in-the-digital-age-9781905674855","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
