This study investigates non-human communication and perception via virtual reality (VR) in the field of visual culture. It seeks to integrate visual stimuli and evaluate a non-human perspective in a simulated environment. To lay the groundwork, an emphasis is placed on comprehending the conventional human perspective, particularly through an examination of cinematic and filmic language. The language of film, including narrative structures, shot compositions, and editing techniques, has had a substantial impact on our understanding of visual storytelling. By carefully analyzing the linguistic structure of film, we can gain insight into human communication and visual perception. The study then shifts its focus to investigating language and vision in non-human entities using virtual reality. Using VR's potential to challenge established human perceptions, we employ visual cues strategically to emphasize the non-human viewpoint. The objective is to uncover new dimensions of visual comprehension while revealing the limitations and biases of human perception. The purpose of this study is to expand our understanding of visual culture beyond human experience by investigating non-human language and vision using virtual reality technology. Through a rigorous analysis of linguistic elements in cinema and the application of VR technology, we aim to uncover new perspectives and investigate visual communication and perception within a diverse and interconnected visual culture.
