Abstract | This paper examines the various theories of motion relating to visual communication media, discusses the syntactic rules of moving images derived from those of still pictures, and underlines the motions employed in the construction of moving images, primarily television pictures. The following theories of motion and moving images are presented: Real Movement Theory; Induced Movement Theory; Apparent Movement Theory; and Phi Phenomenon Movement. Time is the essence of change sequence or motion, and is explored in terms of physiological, objective, and emotional, subjective, or psychological types of time. All pictures are icons by definition, and the iconic level of moving images is discussed. Points of view in constructing visual images include the objective, subjective, and medium creative approaches, and the three types of motions used in the construction of television imagery are primary, secondary, and tertiary. Additional types of motion include movement of the performers or objects themselves in their environmental space; the motion of the television camera that generates a variety of movements and provides various points of view of the recorded event; and movements created by sequencing pictures and editing, including implied motion, accelerated motion, slow motion, arrested motion, rhythmic motion, abrupt or sudden motion, transitional motions, and superimposition.
