The museum trip

As we began our tour to the Museum of The Moving Image I saw the old television set back in the days where Television burgeoned into HDTV. I saw the filming equipment back in the days. They were bulky and primordial. As we continue our tour, I saw an interesting concept of motion. The lights flicker as I saw water being transformed into small bombs then into paper planes. There were old fashioned arcade games. We then made our way to saw some famous pictures from some actors. What really caught my eyes was the green screen tour. It is fascinating how the background can be manipulated. I learned how sound can effect how the audience perceives of a movie. Where I walked into a room, I saw a demonstration of sound being editing to fit a particular scene in a movie. Each sound creates a different experience for the audience where a particular scene is being played. I saw a lot of antique while we moved into the second floor. The advertisements back in the past were intriguing. The advancement in technology has change a lot on how we view moving images. For example, television in the past used analogue, while we are heading into the digital era. Movies back then were black and white until color came along and displaced it. Arcade games back in the past were not focus with graphics. How they looked and how we experience them will differ when we are introduce with better graphics in the game.
