Sound Theory/Sound Practice (Paperback, New)

Building on recent theoretical developments Sound Theory/Sound Practice radically extends the range of critical discourse relevant to film studies. Offering a fresh perspective on the often neglected phenomenon of film sound, this important collection is constructed around a series of new essays by editor Rick Altman: "Cinema as Event", "Four-and-a-half Film Fallacies", "Sound/History", "Sound's Dark Corners", and "A Baker's Dozen New Terms for Sound Analysis".
