      ab: The article discusses the consistent overuse of close-ups in the film and television industry. One example occurs in televised baseball where the game's paradigm fades in favor of a frenetic attention to individual players. According to sports media historian Gerry Whannel, from 1966 to the 1980s, the close-up went from an incidental atmospheric component to the central constituent of sports television. The shift to the close-up as a primary televisual element accompanied the increasing comodification of players as personalities. Close-ups also provide the illusion of a more concrete and factual version of the facts and mechanical connection that constitute the imagined versions of procreation.
