They all have a tendency to see narration, and spectatorship, from a cognitivist perspective. I also recommend Paul Messaris' book called "Visual Literacy," and anything written by Paul Messaris and Larry Gross. Gross and Messaris are not film theorists per se (I'd categorize them as Visual Communication scholars). Other scholars in the realm of visuality and cognitivism include Sol Worth (Symbolic Strategies) and Jay Ruby.
