Leading scholars in the interdisciplinary field of geo-spatial visual studies examine the social experience of cinema and the different ways in which film production developed as a commercial enterprise, as a leisure activity, and as modes of expression and communication. Their research charts new pathways in mapping the relationship between film production and local film practices, theatrical exhibition circuits and cinema going, creating new forms of spatial anthropology. Topics include cinematic practices in rural and urban communities, development of cinema by amateur filmmakers, and use of GIS in mapping the spatial development of film production and cinema going as social practices.

Industry Reviews

"Introduces some of the concrete ways practical mapping and GIS technologies help elaborate historical film projects... The scope of many of these projects is breathtaking in scale... Others embrace ethnographic methods that tell poignant individual stories. Still others deftly merge qualitative and quantitative approaches... As a whole, the volume brings together disparate fields of study in interesting ways." - James Craine, California State University, Northridge
