Film is a term Movie Michigan that encompasses Movie Michigan individual motion pictures, the field of film as Movie Michigan an art form, and the motion picture industry. Films are produced by recording images from the world with cameras, or

Movie Michigan

by creating images using animation techniques or special effects. Films are cultural artifacts created by specific cultures, which reflect those cultures, and, in turn, affect Movie Michigan them. Film is Movie Michigan considered to be an important art form, a source of popular Movie Michigan entertainment and a powerful method for Movie Michigan educating � or indoctrinating � citizens. The visual elements of cinema gives motion pictures a universal power of communication. Movie Michigan Some films Chemical Wedding Horror Movie have become popular worldwide attractions by using dubbing or subtitles that

Movie Michigan

translate the dialogue. Traditional Movie Michigan films are made up of a series of individual images called frames. When these images are shown rapidly in succession, a viewer has the Movie Michigan illusion Movie Michigan that motion is Movie Michigan occurring. Movie Michigan The viewer Movie Michigan cannot Movie Michigan see the flickering between Movie Michigan frames due to an effect known as persistence of vision, whereby Movie Michigan the eye retains Movie Michigan a The origin of Movie Michigan the name "film" comes from the fact that photographic film (also called film stock) had historically been the primary medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other Movie Michigan terms exist for an individual motion picture, including picture, Movie Michigan picture show, photo-play, flick, and most Movie Michigan commonly, movie. Additional terms for the Movie Michigan field in general include the big screen, the silver screen, the cinema, and the movies.In the 1860s, mechanisms for producing artificially created, two-dimensional images in motion were demonstrated with devices such as the zoetrope and the praxinoscope. These machines were outgrowths of simple optical devices (such as magic lanterns) and would display sequences

Movie Michigan

of still pictures at sufficient speed for the images on the Movie Michigan pictures Movie Michigan to Movie Michigan appear to be moving, a phenomenon called persistence of vision. Naturally, Movie Michigan the images needed to be carefully designed to achieve the Movie Michigan desired effect � and the underlying principle became the basis for Movie Michigan the development Movie Michigan of film animation. A frame from Roundhay Garden Movie Michigan Scene, the world's earliest film, by Louis Le Prince, 1888 With Movie Michigan the development of celluloid film for still photography, it became possible to directly capture objects in motion in real time. Movie Michigan Early versions of the technology sometimes required a person to look into Movie Michigan a viewing machine to see the pictures which were Movie Michigan separate paper prints attached to a drum turned Movie Michigan by a Movie Michigan handcrank. The pictures were shown at a variable speed of Movie Michigan about 5 to 10 pictures per second depending on how rapidly the crank was turned. Some of these machines Movie Michigan were coin operated. By the 1880s, the development Movie Michigan of the motion picture camera Movie Michigan allowed the individual component images to be captured

Movie Michigan

and Movie Michigan stored on a single reel, and led Movie Michigan quickly to the development of a motion picture projector to shine light through the processed and printed film and magnify these "moving picture shows" onto a screen for an Movie Michigan entire audience. These reels, so exhibited, came to be known Movie Michigan as "motion pictures". Early motion pictures were static shots that showed an Movie Michigan event or action with no editing or other cinematic techniques. Ignoring Dickson's early sound experiments (1894), commercial motion pictures Movie Michigan were purely visual

Movie Michigan

art through the late 19th century, but these Movie Michigan innovative silent films had gained a hold on the Movie Michigan public imagination. Around the turn of the twentieth century, films began developing a narrative structure by stringing scenes together to tell narratives. The scenes were later broken up into multiple shots of varying sizes and angles. Other techniques such as camera Movie Michigan movement were realized as effective ways to portray a story on film. Rather Movie Michigan than leave the audience in silence, theater owners Movie Michigan would hire a pianist or Movie Michigan organist or a full orchestra to play music fitting the mood of the film at any given moment. By the early 1920s, most Movie Michigan films came with a prepared list of sheet music for

Movie Michigan

this purpose, with complete Movie Michigan film Movie Michigan scores Movie Michigan being composed for major productions. A shot from Georges Melies Le Voyage dans la Lune (A Trip Movie Michigan to the Moon) (1902), an early narrative Movie Michigan film. The rise of European cinema was interrupted by the breakout of World War I while the film Movie Michigan industry in United States flourished with the rise of Hollywood. However in the 1920s, European filmmakers such as Sergei Eisenstein, Movie Michigan F. W. Murnau, and Fritz Lang, along with American innovator D. W. Griffith and the contributions of Charles Movie Michigan Chaplin, Buster Keaton and others, continued to advance the medium. Movie Michigan In the 1920s, new technology allowed filmmakers to attach to each film a soundtrack of speech, Movie Michigan music Movie Michigan and sound effects synchronized with the action on the screen. These sound films were initially distinguished by calling them "talking pictures", or talkies. The next major step in the development of cinema was the introduction of Movie Michigan so-called "natural" color. While the addition of sound quickly eclipsed silent Talk Of Sopranos Movie film and theater musicians, color was adopted more gradually as methods evolved making it more practical Movie Michigan and cost effective to produce "natural color" films. The public was relatively indifferent to color photography as opposed to black-and-white,[citation needed] but Movie Michigan as color processes improved and became as affordable as black-and-white film, more and more movies were filmed in color after the end of World War II, Movie Michigan as the industry Movie Michigan in America came Movie Michigan to view color as essential to attracting audiences in its competition with television, which remained a black-and-white medium until the mid-1960s. By the end of the 1960s, col Since the decline Movie Michigan of the studio system in the 1960s, the succeeding decades saw changes in the production

Movie Michigan

and style of film. New Hollywood, French New Wave

Movie Michigan

and the rise Movie Michigan of film school educated independent filmmakers were all part

Movie Michigan

of the changes the medium experienced in the latter half of the 20th century. Digital technology has been the driving force in change throughout the 1990s and into the 21st century. Theory Main article: Film theory Film theory seeks to develop concise and systematic concepts that apply Movie Michigan to the study of Movie Michigan film as art. It was started by Ricciotto Movie Michigan Canudo's The Birth of the Sixth Art. Formalist film theory, led by Movie Michigan Rudolf Arnheim, Bela Balazs, and Siegfried Kracauer, emphasized how film differed from reality, Movie Michigan and Movie Michigan thus could be considered a valid fine art. Andre Bazin reacted against this theory by arguing that film's artistic essence lay in Movie Michigan its ability to mechanically reproduce reality not in its differences Movie Michigan from reality, and this gave rise to realist theory. More recent analysis spurred by Lacan's psychoanalysis and Ferdinand de Movie Michigan Saussure's Movie Michigan semiotics among other things has Movie Michigan given rise to psychoanalytical film theory, structuralist film theory, feminist film theory and others. Criticism Main article: Film criticism Film criticism is the analysis and Movie Michigan evaluation of films. Movie Michigan In Movie Michigan general, these works can be divided into two categories: academic criticism by film scholars and journalistic film criticism that appears regularly in newspapers and other

Movie Michigan

media. Film critics working for newspapers, magazines, and broadcast media mainly review new releases. Normally they only see any given film once and have only a day or two to Movie Michigan formulate opinions. Despite this, critics have an important impact on films, Movie Michigan especially those of certain genres. Mass marketed action, horror, and comedy films tend not to be greatly affected by a critic's overall judgment of a film. The plot summary Movie Michigan and description of a film that makes up the majority of any film review can still have an important impact on whether people decide Movie Michigan to see a Movie Michigan film. For prestige films such as most dramas, the influence of reviews is extremely Movie Michigan important. Poor reviews will often doom a film to obscurity and financial loss. The impact of Movie Michigan a reviewer on a Movie Michigan given film's box office Movie Michigan performance is a matter of debate. Some claim that movie marketing is now so Movie Michigan intense and well financed that reviewers cannot make an impact against it. However, Movie Michigan the cataclysmic failure of some heavily-promoted movies which were Movie Michigan harshly reviewed, as well as the unexpected success of critically praised independent movies indicates that extreme critical reactions can have considerable influence. Others note that positive film reviews have been shown to spark interest in little-known Movie Michigan films. Conversely, there have been several films in which film companies have so little confidence that they refuse to give reviewers an advanced Movie Michigan viewing to avoid widespread panning of the film. However, this usually backfires as reviewers are wise to the tactic and warn the Movie Michigan public that the Movie Michigan film may not be worth seeing and the films often do poorly as a result. It is argued that journalist Movie Michigan film critics should Halloween Movie Curtis only be known as film reviewers, and true film critics are those who take a more academic approach to films. This line of work is more Movie Michigan often known as film theory or film studies. These film critics attempt to Movie Michigan come to understand how film and filming techniques work, and what effect Movie Michigan they Movie Michigan have on people. Rather than having their works published in newspapers or appear on television, their articles are published in scholarly journals, or sometimes in up-market magazines. They also tend to be affiliated with colleges or universities. Industry Main article: Film industry The Movie Michigan making and showing of motion pictures became a Movie Michigan source of profit almost as soon as the process was Movie Michigan invented. Upon seeing how successful their new invention, and its product, was in their native France, the Lumieres quickly set about touring the Continent to exhibit the first films privately Movie Michigan to royalty and publicly to the masses. In each country, they would normally add new, local scenes to Movie Michigan their catalogue and, quickly enough, found local entrepreneurs in Rent Movie Actors the various Movie Michigan countries of Europe to buy their equipment and photograph, export, import and Movie Michigan screen additional product commercially. The Oberammergau Passion Play of 1898[citation needed] was the Movie Michigan first commercial motion picture ever produced. Other pictures soon followed, and motion pictures became a separate industry that overshadowed the vaudeville world. Dedicated theaters and

Movie Michigan

companies formed specifically to Movie Michigan produce and distribute films, while motion picture actors became major celebrities and commanded huge fees for their performances. Already by 1917, Charlie Chaplin Movie Michigan had a Movie Michigan contract that called for an Movie Michigan annual salary of one million dollars. In the United States today, much of the film industry is centered around Hollywood.

Movie Michigan

Other regional centers exist in many parts of the world, Movie Michigan such as Mumbai-centered Bollywood, the Indian film industry's Hindi cinema which produces the largest number of films in the world.[1] Whether the ten thousand-plus feature length films a year produced by the Valley Movie Michigan pornographic film industry should qualify for this title is the source of some Movie Michigan debate.[citation needed] Though the expense involved in making movies Movie Michigan has led cinema production to concentrate under the auspices of movie studios, Movie Michigan recent advances Movie Michigan in affordable film Movie Michigan making equipment have allowed Movie Michigan independent film productions to flourish. Profit is a key force in the industry, due

Movie Michigan

to Movie Michigan the costly and risky nature of filmmaking; many films have large cost overruns, a notorious example being Kevin Costner's Waterworld. Movie Michigan Yet many filmmakers strive to create works of lasting social significance. The Movie Michigan Academy Awards (also known as "the Oscars") are the most prominent film awards in the United States, providing recognition each year to films, ostensibly based on their artistic merits. There is also a large industry for educational and instructional films made in lieu of or in addition to lectures and texts. Preview A preview Movie Michigan performance refers to a showing of a movie to a select audience, usually for the purposes of corporate promotions, before the public Movie Michigan film premiere itself. Previews are Movie Michigan sometimes Movie Michigan used to judge Movie Michigan audience reaction, which Movie Michigan Latest Movie Of Russel Crow if Movie Michigan unexpectedly negative, may result in recutting or even refilming certain Flash7 Movie Streaming sections. (cf Movie Michigan Audience response.) Trailer Main article: Trailer (film) Trailers or previews are film advertisements for films that will be exhibited in the future at Movie Michigan a Movie Michigan cinema, on whose screen they are shown. The term Movie Michigan "trailer"

Movie Michigan

comes Movie Michigan from their having originally been shown at the end of a film programme. That practice did not last long, because patrons tended to leave the theater after the films ended, but the name has stuck. Movie Michigan Trailers are now shown before the film (or the A movie in a double feature program) begins. The nature of the film determines the size and type of crew Movie Michigan required during filmmaking. Movie Michigan Many Hollywood adventure Movie Michigan films need computer generated imagery (CGI), created by dozens of 3D modellers, animators, rotoscopers and compositors. However, a low-budget, independent film may be Movie Michigan made with a skeleton crew, often paid very little. Also, an open source film may

Movie Michigan

be produced through open, collaborative processes. Filmmaking takes place all over the world using different technologies, styles of acting Movie Michigan and genre, and is produced in a variety of economic contexts that range from state-sponsored documentary in China to profit-oriented movie making within the American studio system. This Movie Michigan production cycle typically takes three years. The first year is taken up with development. The second year comprises preproduction and production. The third year, post-production and distribution. Crew Main article: Film crew A film crew is a group of people

Movie Michigan

hired by a film company, employed during the "production" or "photography" phase, for the purpose of producing a film Movie Michigan or motion picture. Crew are distinguished from Movie Michigan cast, the actors who appear in front of the camera or provide voices for characters in the film. The crew interacts with but is also distinct from the production staff, consisting of producers, managers, company representatives, Movie Michigan their assistants, Movie Michigan and those whose primary responsibility falls in pre-production or post-production phases, such as writers and editors. Movie Michigan Communication between production and crew generally passes through the director and his/her Movie Michigan staff of assistants. Medium-to-large crews are generally divided into departments with well defined hierarchies and standards for interaction and cooperation between the departments. Other than acting, Movie Michigan the crew handles everything in the photography phase: props Movie Michigan and costumes, shooting, sound, electrics (i.e., lights), sets, and production special Movie Michigan effects. Caterers (known in Movie Michigan the film Movie Michigan industry as "craft Movie Michigan services") are usually not considered Movie Michigan part of the crew. Technology Film stock consists of transparent celluloid, Movie Michigan acetate, or polyester English Movie Downloads For Free base coated with an Movie Michigan emulsion containing light-sensitive chemicals. Cellulose nitrate was the first type of film base used to record motion pictures, but due to its flammability was eventually replaced by safer Movie Michigan materials. Stock widths and the film Movie Michigan format for Movie Michigan images on the reel have Movie Michigan had a rich history, though most large commercial films are still shot on (and distributed to theaters) as 35 mm prints. Originally moving picture film was shot and projected at various speeds using Movie Michigan hand-cranked Movie Michigan cameras and projectors; though Movie Michigan 1000 frames per minute (16? Movie Michigan frame/s) Movie Michigan is generally cited as a standard Movie Michigan silent speed, Movie Michigan research indicates most films were shot between 16 frame/s and 23 frame/s and projected from 18 frame/s on up (often reels included instructions on how fast each scene should be shown) [1]. When sound film was introduced in the late 1920s, Movie Michigan a constant speed was required for the sound head. 24 frames per second was chosen because it was the slowest (and thus Movie Michigan cheapest) speed Movie Michigan which allowed for sufficient sound quality. Improvements since the late 19th century include the mechanization of cameras � Movie Michigan allowing them to record at a consistent speed, quiet camera Movie Michigan design � allowing Movie Michigan sound recorded on-set to be usable without requiring Movie Michigan large Movie Michigan "blimps" to encase the camera, the invention of more sophisticated filmstocks and lenses, allowing Movie Michigan directors to film in increasingly dim conditions, and the development of synchronized sound, allowing sound to be recorded at Movie Michigan exactly the same speed as its corresponding action. The soundtrack Movie Michigan can be recorded separately from shooting the film, but for live-action pictures many parts of Movie Michigan the soundtrack are usually recorded simultaneously. As a medium, film is not limited to motion pictures, since Movie Michigan the technology developed as the basis Movie Michigan for photography. It Movie Michigan can be used to Movie Michigan present a progressive sequence of still Movie Michigan images

Movie Michigan

in the form of a slideshow. Film has also Movie Michigan been incorporated into multimedia presentations, and often has importance as primary historical documentation. However, historic films have problems in terms of preservation and storage, and the motion picture industry is exploring many alternatives. Most movies on cellulose nitrate base have been copied onto modern safety films. Some studios save color films through the use

Movie Michigan

of separation Movie Michigan masters � three B&W negatives each exposed through red, green, or Movie Michigan blue filters (essentially a reverse of the Technicolor process). Digital methods have also Movie Michigan been used to restore films, although their continued obsolescence cycle makes them (as Movie Michigan of 2006) a poor choice for long-term preservation. Film Movie Michigan preservation of decaying film stock is Movie Michigan a matter of Movie Michigan concern to both film historians and archivists, and to companies interested Movie Michigan in preserving their existing

Movie Michigan

products in order to make

Movie Michigan

them available to future Movie Michigan generations (and thereby increase revenue). Preservation Movie Michigan is generally

Movie Michigan

a higher-concern for nitrate Movie Michigan and single-strip color films, due to their high decay rates; black and white Movie Michigan films on safety bases Movie Michigan and color films preserved on Technicolor imbibition prints tend to keep up much better, assuming proper handling and storage. Some films in recent decades have Movie Michigan been recorded

Movie Michigan

using analog video technology similar to that used in television production. Modern digital video cameras and digital projectors are gaining ground as well. These Movie Michigan approaches Movie Michigan are extremely beneficial to moviemakers, especially because footage can be evaluated and

Movie Michigan

edited without waiting for the film stock to be processed. Yet the migration is gradual, and as of 2005 most Movie Michigan major motion pictures are Movie Michigan still Movie Michigan recorded on film. Independent Main article: Independent film The Lumiere Brothers Independent filmmaking often takes place outside of Hollywood, or other major studio systems. An Dvd Movie Storage independent film (or indie film) is a film initially produced without Movie Michigan financing or distribution from Movie Michigan a major movie studio. Creative, business, and technological reasons have all contributed to the growth of the indie Movie Michigan film scene in the late 20th and Movie Michigan early 21st century. On the business side, the costs of big-budget studio films also leads to conservative choices in cast and crew. There is a trend in Hollywood towards co-financing (over two-thirds of the films Movie Michigan put out by Warner Bros. in 2000 were joint ventures, up from 10% in 1987).[2] A hopeful director is almost never given the opportunity to get a job on a big-budget studio film unless he or she has significant industry experience in film or television. Also, the studios rarely produce films with unknown actors, particularly in lead roles. Before Movie Michigan the advent of digital alternatives, the cost of professional film equipment and stock was also a hurdle to being able to produce, direct, or star in a traditional studio film. The cost of 35 mm film is outpacing inflation: in 2002 alone, Movie Michigan film negative costs were up 23%, according to Variety.[2]. But the advent of consumer camcorders in Movie Michigan 1985, and more importantly, the arrival Movie Michigan of high-resolution digital Movie Michigan video in the early 1990s, have lowered the technology barrier to movie production significantly. Both production and post-production Movie Michigan costs have been significantly lowered; today, the hardware and software for post-production can be installed in a commodity-based personal computer. Technologies such as DVDs, FireWire connections Movie Michigan and non-linear editing system pro-level software like Adobe Premiere Pro, Sony Vegas and Apple's Final Cut Pro, and consumer level software such as Apple's Final Cut Express and iMovie make movie-making relatively inexpensive. Since the introduction Movie Michigan of DV technology, the means of production have become more democratized.

Movie Michigan

Filmmakers can conceivably shoot and Movie Michigan edit a movie, create and edit the sound and music, and mix the final cut on a home computer. However, while the means of production may be democratized, financing, distribution, and marketing remain difficult to accomplish outside the traditional system. Most independent filmmakers rely on film

Movie Michigan

festivals to Movie Michigan get their films noticed and sold for Movie Michigan distribution. The arrival of internet-based video outlets such as YouTube Movie Michigan and Veoh has further Movie Michigan changed Movie Michigan the film making landscape in ways that are still to be determined. Open content Movie Michigan film Main article: Open content film An open content Movie Michigan film is much like an independent film, but it is produced through open collaborations; Movie Michigan its source material Movie Michigan is Movie Michigan available under a license

Movie Michigan

which is permissive enough to Movie Michigan allow other parties to Movie Michigan create fan Movie Michigan fiction or derivative works, than Movie Michigan a traditional copyright. Like independent filmmaking, open source filmmaking takes place outside of Hollywood, or other major studio systems. Fan film Main article: Fan film A fan film is a film or video inspired by a film, television program, comic book or a similar source, created by fans rather

Movie Michigan

than by the source's copyright holders or creators. Fan filmmakers have traditionally been amateurs, but Movie Michigan some of the more notable films have actually been produced by professional filmmakers as film school class projects or as demonstration reels. Fan films vary tremendously in length, from short faux-teaser trailers for non-existent motion pictures to rarer full-length motion pictures Animation is the technique in which each frame of a film is produced individually, Movie Michigan whether generated as a computer graphic, or by photographing a drawn image,

Movie Michigan

or by repeatedly making small changes Movie Michigan to a model unit (see claymation and stop motion), and then photographing the result with Movie Michigan a Movie Michigan special animation camera. When the frames are strung together and the resulting film is viewed at a speed of 16 or more frames per second, there is an illusion of continuous movement (due to the persistence of vision). Generating such a film is very labour intensive and tedious, though the development of computer animation has Dartmouth Halifax Movie Listings greatly sped up the process. File Movie Michigan formats like GIF, QuickTime, Shockwave and Flash allow Movie Michigan animation to be viewed on a computer or over the Internet. Because animation is very time-consuming and often very expensive to produce, the majority of animation for TV and movies comes Movie Michigan from professional animation studios. Movie Michigan However, Movie Michigan the field of Movie Michigan independent animation has existed Movie Michigan at least since the 1950s, Movie Michigan with animation being produced by Movie Michigan independent studios (and sometimes by a single person). Several independent animation producers have gone on to enter the professional animation industry. Limited animation Movie Michigan is a way of increasing production Movie Michigan and decreasing costs Movie Michigan of animation by using "short cuts" in the animation process. This method Movie Michigan was pioneered by UPA and popularized Movie Michigan by Hanna-Barbera, and adapted by Movie Michigan other studios as cartoons moved from movie theaters to television.[3] Although most animation studios are now using digital technologies in their productions, there is a specific style of animation that depends on Movie Michigan film. Cameraless animation, made famous by moviemakers like Movie Michigan Norman McLaren, Len Lye and Stan Brakhage, is painted and drawn directly onto pieces Movie Michigan of film, Movie Michigan and then run through a projector. Venues When it is initially produced, a feature film is Movie Michigan often shown to audiences in a Movie Michigan movie theater or cinema. The first theater designed exclusively for cinema opened in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Movie Michigan in 1905.[4] Thousands of such theaters were built or Movie Michigan converted from existing facilities within a few years.[5]

Movie Michigan

In the United States, these theaters came to be known as Movie Michigan nickelodeons, because admission Movie Michigan typically cost a nickel (five cents). Typically, one film is the

Movie Michigan

featured presentation Movie Michigan (or feature film). Before the 1970s, there were "double features"; typically, a high quality "A picture" rented by an independent theater for a Movie Michigan lump sum, and a "B picture" of Movie Michigan lower quality rented for a percentage of the gross receipts. Today, the bulk of the material shown before the Movie Michigan feature Movie Michigan film consists of previews for upcoming movies Movie Michigan and Movie Michigan paid advertisements (also known Movie Michigan as trailers Movie Michigan or "The Twenty"). Historically, all Movie Michigan mass marketed feature films were made Transformers Movie Vehicles to be shown in movie theaters. The development of television has allowed films to be broadcast to larger audiences, usually after the film is no longer being shown in theaters. Recording technology Movie Michigan has Movie Michigan also enabled consumers to rent or buy copies of films on VHS Movie Michigan or DVD (and the older formats of laserdisc, VCD and SelectaVision Movie Michigan � see also videodisc), and Movie Michigan Internet downloads may Movie Michigan be available Movie Michigan and have started Watch Kickboxer Movie Online to become revenue sources for the film companies. Movie Michigan Some films are now made specifically for these other venues, being released as made-for-TV Movie Michigan movies or direct-to-video movies. The production values on these films are Movie Michigan often considered to be of inferior quality compared to theatrical releases in similar genres, and Movie Michigan indeed, some films that are rejected by their own studios upon completion are distributed through these markets. The Movie Michigan movie theater Movie Michigan pays an average of about 50-55% of its ticket sales to the movie studio, as film rental fees.[6] The actual percentage starts with a number higher than that, and decreases as the duration Movie Michigan of a film's showing continues, as an Movie Michigan incentive to theaters to keep movies in the theater Movie Michigan longer. However, today's barrage of highly marketed movies ensures that most movies are shown in first-run theaters for less than 8 weeks. There are a few movies Movie Michigan every year that defy this rule, often limited-release movies that start in only a few theaters and actually grow their theater count Movie Michigan through good word-of-mouth Movie Michigan and reviews. According to a 2000 study by ABN AMRO, about 26% of Hollywood movie studios' worldwide income came from box office ticket sales; 46% came from VHS and DVD sales to consumers; and Movie Michigan 28% came from television (broadcast, cable, and Movie Michigan pay-per-view).[6] Future state While motion picture films Movie Michigan have been around for more than a century, film is Movie Michigan still a Movie Michigan relative newcomer in the pantheon of fine arts. In the 1950s, when television became widely available, industry analysts predicted the demise of Movie Michigan local movie theaters. Despite competition from Movie Michigan television's

Movie Michigan

increasing technological sophistication over the 1960s and 1970s, such as the development of color television and large screens, motion picture cinemas continued. In the 1980s, when Movie Michigan the widespread availability of inexpensive videocassette recorders enabled people to select Movie Michigan films for home viewing, industry analysts again wrongly predicted the death of the local cinemas. In the 1990s Movie Michigan and 2000s the development of digital DVD players, home Movie Michigan theater amplification systems with surround sound and subwoofers, and large LCD or plasma Movie Michigan screens enabled people to select and view films at home Movie Michigan with greatly improved audio and

Movie Michigan

visual reproduction. These Movie Michigan new technologies provided audio and visual that in the past only local cinemas had been able to provide: a large, clear widescreen presentation of a film with a full-range, high-quality

Movie Michigan

multi-speaker sound system. Once Movie Michigan again industry analysts predicted the demise of the local cinema. Local cinemas Movie Michigan will be changing in the 2000s and moving towards digital screens, a new approach which will allow for easier and quicker distribution Movie Michigan of

Movie Michigan

films (via satellite or hard disks), a development which may give local theaters a reprieve from their predicted demise. The cinema now faces a new Movie Michigan challenge from home video by the likes of a new DVD Movie Michigan format Blu-ray, which can Movie Michigan provide full HD 1080p video playback at near cinema quality. Video formats are gradually catching up Movie Michigan with the resolutions and quality that film offers, 1080p in Blu-ray offers a pixel resolution of 1920?1080 a leap from the DVD offering of 720?480 and the Movie Michigan paltry 330?480 offered by the first Movie Michigan home video standard VHS. The maximum resolutions that film currently offers are 2485?2970 or 1420?3390, UHD, a future digital video format, will offer a massive resolution of 7680?4320, surpassing all current film resolutions. The only viable competitor to these new innovations is IMAX which can play film content at an extreme 10000?7000 resolution. Despite the rise of all new technologies, the development of the home video market and a surge of online piracy, 2007 was a record year in film that showed the highest ever box-office grosses. Movie Michigan Many expected film to suffer as a result of the effects listed above but it has flourished, strengthening film studio expectations Movie Michigan for the future. Movie Michigan
