Ths study examines the contents and co-ordination of perceptual, cognitive, stylistic and semantic elements of film form and meaning, understanding cinema as a medium of re-experience, of discovery and creation. It is a phenomenon in which meaning arises as a function of perceptual, emotional, and intellectual activity, in which the world is grapsed as a dynamic presence.
Acccording to the study, one can understand cinema's universe as a kind of microcosm, a world with its own order and logic but also a world with associatiuons and connotations related to its viewing process. One can speak of cinematic semantics with which one can understand the exploration of cinematic meanings concentrating on specific ciemantic essences such as the meanings of moving images, continuity, succession, montage-combinations and camera-effects.
