"The quality of the film stock has gotten better. The move into digital has given us better control over the dynamic range” says James Cutting, a psychologist at Cornell University who’s been studying the evolution of cinema. This means that visuals and sound have played a huge role in making movies into what they are today and that technology has advanced much more to make the audiences more intrigued into what they are watching. Knowing this, we can all agree that movies have changed, in both better

While most horror movies are made up with creepy ghosts, vampires and murderers, “Jeepers Creepers” was originally based on a real story. The winged monster and other details were fabricated, but the essential story was based on Dennis DePue. At the time of the filming, DePue had not yet been caught for his crime.

Name: Professor: Course: Date: Comparison between the Movie and Book: The Outsiders It is an experience of a lifetime to read a story in a book and watch the movie. The book and movie, The Outsiders, share many similarities and differ in equally many ways. S. E.

This write-up examines the similarities and differences between the book and movie, The Outsiders

Cinema is an interesting art form that appeals to a wide variety of individuals through varied genres and styles. Of the various major film genres, I am most attracted to action/adventure films and comedy films.

picture in the lavish AMC Theater in Montgomery, AL and viewing one in the coziness and sanctuary of one’s residence extends two dissimilar kinds of entertainment experiences. Nevertheless, this fleeting composition will explore the differences and similarities that exist between the two. Thus, journeying to the AMC Theater to view a motion picture is an excellent getaway from the mundane daily routines in life. Enjoying an action packed flick like Transformers in 3-D at a theater pales in comparison to

The production code Filmmakers especially excelled in the 1930’s because they became obsessed with the idea that they could start breaking the rules and restrictions that society placed on them. They started to explore controversial themes such as obscenity and the criminality of the human psyche (the human soul, mind or spirit), both conscious, unconscious and in totality. However with this new material, and the production of films like “freaks”, came critics. Groups of traditionalists like the

The Blair Witch Project was reportedly made on a budget of less than $60,000 and made $240,000,000 at the box office. The film played on the concept of homemade videos and was shot using a handheld camera. The film was one of the first films to go viral due to its affective
