I don't really visualise much when reading. Certainly not in the sense of seeing film. If anything it's like glances that are only vaguely "sensed", rather than "seen". If the author makes a certain point related to a character, size in relation to others for example, then I have to stop and deliberately imagine it. I can do it, but I don't do it automatically. On the other hand, I would still consider myself a visually oriented person - and my teachers has always considered me a strong reader. I am not sure I see any correlations, at least for myself.
Modern authors rarely put much description of characters in their stories - I imagine that for those who do "see a film" while reading, their brain must supply the additional details. I find that I don't do that automatically.
