Ilija Barišić
The book by Ilija Barišić (Zagreb, 1981) is one of the pioneering theoretical and research works on video games as a “new” audiovisual medium and on its points of contact with the “old” medium – film. Drawing on the theoretical framework of filmology, and taking into account new game theories, the author explores the synergistic communicative effect of film and playful means of expression on a large sample of popular video games, and specifically focuses on identifying the modes of action of different types of filmic presentation in video games. The key question is how the 'filmic' and the 'playful' function together and how, in these circumstances, they influence the creation of the player's experience. The answer to this question enables a deeper, more complex and complete understanding of the video game medium, but also provides some new perspectives in film theory, especially with regard to the marginal, hybrid areas of the moving image media, and opens up some new analytical perspectives for interactive media.
