Abstract

This chapter focuses upon the visual space of musical numbers: their representation and perception. It makes use of virtual reconstructions to aid in this analysis. Firstly, it argues that ‘forensic analysis’ should be championed utilising a number of different methods; secondly, that visual space is perceived in a multi-sensory manner thereby challenging the ocularcentrism common in Film Studies; and thirdly, that the (visual) space can be extended from the frame of the scene.
