Introduction: The end of cinema? -- Cinema is not what it used to be -- Digitalizing cinema from top to bottom -- A brief phenomenology of 'digitalized' cinema -- From shooting to filming: the Aufhebung effect -- A medium is always born twice -- New variants of the moving image -- 'Animage' and the new visual culture -- Conclusion: A medium in crisis in the digital age.

Is a film watched on a video screen still cinema? Have digital compositing, motion capture, and other advanced technologies remade or obliterated the craft? Rooted in their hypothesis of the 'double birth of media', André Gaudreault and Philippe Marion take a positive look at cinema's ongoing digital revolution and reaffirm its central place in a rapidly expanding media landscape.
