What is this type of person called?

When I read books, I can imagine it very well. I like writing books but whenever I do, I picture it in my head like a movie (which makes it hard to write). What's this called? The type of person that's better with picturing things in their head instead of reading it or hearing it?

Update:

Well, everyone sees pictures in their head when they read but I imagine it like a movie, with the acting and drama and everything. Is that also normal?

    That's how imagination works for everybody, when we read books it conjures images in our mind (we don't just see words on a page)

    Addition: Of course it's normal, you think we just imagine static images or something? The written words (or sounds) create life in our imaginations. Same thing if we create a scenario in our minds, we see it, we feel it, we hear it, in our minds. I'm really curious to know how you think other people's imagination's work.
