We learnt about the History of film, different styles and techniques. It first originated from cave paintings and shadow plays from china in the eleventh century.The daguerreotype process was the first method of getting permanent images with a camera. The man who gave his name to the process was called Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre, a French artist and scenic painter. In England, at the same time as Daguerre ,Henry Fox Talbot created his own photographic process known as the Talbotype.It wasn't until a Dutch Physisist named Plateau around the 1870's, suggested combining the photographic images with the Zoetrope, or Phenakistiscope that real images, rather than paintings, could be used. In order to create movement, photgraphers had to positon and repositon a model.
Some of the vocabulary used in this lesson was:
· Deep focus
· Shadow focus
· Matte
· Metonymy
· Synecdoche
