The film resembles to the practice of The Moving Image. I am very impressed with the special effects that were put into the moon and the overall production, consider the fact that it was made in 1902. The film camera made the movement on the screen seems sped up. Not every movement was clear in fact it seems like the actors were walking and acting funny. The similarities were of course the effects that the photographic and film camera produce and the difference is that the film camera gets to record everything live.
