History of flick making

By Alice George


Movie is a term that embodies individual motion photos, the discipline of Flick as a kind of art, and the motion picture industry. Pictures are produced by recording photographs from the world with cameras, or by making pictures using animation methodologies or CGI effects.

Flicks are cultural artifacts made by specific cultures, which reflect those cultures, and, in turn, affect them. Film is believed to be a crucial art form, a consistent source of popular entertainment and a strong technique for educating â€" or indoctrinating â€" voters. The visual elements of theatre gives motion footage a universal power of communication. Some flicks have become increasingly popular worldwide attractions by employing dubbing or subtitles that translate the dialogue.

Normal Flicks are made up of a collection of individual pictures called frames. When these images are shown swiftly in succession, a spectator has the illusion that motion is happening. The viewer can't see the flickering between frames due to an effect known as endurance of vision, whereby the eye keeps a visible image for a small part of a second after the source has been removed. Viewers perceive motion due to a psychological effect called beta movement.

The provenance of the name "Movie" comes from the incontrovertible fact that photographic Movie (also called Picture stock) had historically been the primary medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Plenty of other terms exist for an individual motion picture, including picture, picture show, photo-play, flick, and most generally, movie. Extra terms for the field generally include the big-screen, the movie screen, the theatre, and the films.

In the 1860s, mechanisms for producing artificially created, 2 dimensional pictures in motion were demonstrated with devices like the zoetrope and the praxinoscope. These machines were outgrowths of simple optical devices (like sorcery lanterns) and would display sequences of still footage at adequate speed for the pictures on the photographs to seem to be moving, a phenomenon called endurance of vision. Naturally, the pictures needed to be fastidiously engineered to achieve the required effect â€" and the fundamental principle became the basis for the development of Flick animation.

With the development of celluloid Film for still photography, it became feasible to at once capture objects in motion in real time. Early versions of the technology sometimes needed someone to have a look at a viewing machine to see the pictures which were separate paper prints attached to a drum turned by a handcrank. The footage were shown at a variable speed of about 5 to 10 footage per second depending on how rapidly the crank was turned. A few of these machines were coin operated. By the 1880s, the development of the motion picture camera authorized the individual part photographs to be caught and stored on a single reel, and led quickly to the development of a motion picture projector to polish light through the processed and outlined Motion picture and magnify these "moving picture shows" onto a screen for a whole audience. These reels, so exhibited, came to be known as "motion pictures". Early motion footage were static shots that showed an event or action with no editing or other cinematic methods.
