The Eye-Tracking Study of the Film Frame Composition Influence on the Visual Perception

The research is aimed at studying the elements that affect the visual perception of the film frame in order to develop methodological recommendations for the process harmonization of the film frame. The object of research is a film frame. The subject of the research is the technology of film frame processing. The purpose of this work is to obtain experimental data of the film frame viewing pattern and to identify statistical patterns to confirm or refute the formulated hypothesis. The goal of the study is to conduct an experimental study of the influence of composition on the parameters of the film frame viewing pattern. The influence of the factor of the mutual ratio of the areas of the centers of interest to the background on the parameters of the template for viewing the stimulus material is investigated. As a result, the methodology has been developed for conducting experimental studies of human perception of visual information using an eye-tracking software and hardware complex. When analyzing data on the influence of the objects size factor. The results obtained show that under the condition that objects occupy a small area of the frame, the observer needs more time to consider this frame. As well as in the case when objects occupy most of the frame (more than 40%). In the first case, due to the small size of the objects, it becomes more difficult for the observer to find objects in the frame space. In the second case, it takes time to identify objects, since they tend to be perceived as a background due to their large size.
