Photography & Early Film

This short film was very interesting because aside from bieng the first “Sci-fi” movie it was actually more of a comedy. I could tell that it was very primitive because the camera was stationed and didn’t move. The reason for this was because the camera couldn’t move or else it would become distorted and the quality would be low. Simliraties between photgraphy and the film were that they both served as entertainment, documentation, & eventually as art. They both had to be stationed to produce quailty work. Another similarty was the revolutionary impact it made to society. Some differences would be photography is still unlike film which has movement. Another difference would be that film had an advantage over photgraphy in terms of entertainment. Withouth photgraphy, film would’ve never existed. More than a century later, we still have photography and film that serve as entertainment and education. They play a major role in our lives and i can’t imagine what i would do without it.
