 INTRODUCTION
Initially, the film was little more than
a curiosity of the fair, an invention
that allowed the reality show in
motion. Over the years, established
itself as a mass spectacle, which
attracts thousands of spectators
rooms of any nationality, and as a
feature of contemporary world art.
THE SILENT FILM

The silent film is one film that has

no synchronized recorded sound,
especially spoken dialogue
was referred and consisted
of images
After the premiere of the
movie The Jazz Singer, the
talkies were becoming more
common and ten years
later, the silent movie had
practically disappeared. The
silent era is often referred to
as "The Age of the Silver
Screen"
 The first silent movie was
created by Louis Le Prince
in 1888. It was a three-
second film showing two
people walking around
the Roundhay garden,
was titled The Roundhay
Garden Scene.
 THE SOUND FILM

It is one in which the

movie has synchronized
sound, or sound
technologically coupled
to image.
In the first years after the
introduction of sound, films
incorporating synchronized
dialogue were known as
"talkies.“

The film is considered the

first talkie of history is "The
Jazz Singer," released on
October 6, 1927 and
directed by Alan Crosland.
Despite this consideration, it
was not completely sound
tape. It contained some
songs and some spoken
fragments, one of them, the
protagonist, Al
Jolson, looking at the
camera and uttered the first
line of dialogue in film
history: "Wait a minute: you
haven’t heard anything.''
BLACK & WHITE FILMS
The Black and White films are
from the beginning of film
history, since 1895, the
Lumiere brothers publicly
projected output of a French
factory workers in Lyon, the
demolition of a wall, the
arrival of a train and a boat
from the port.
Light is the essential element in the
Black and White films.

The filmmakers of black and white film,

however, came to acquire a picture-
perfect very high levels of contrast
between light and shadows and amazing
professionalism in the use of lighting.
 COLOR FILMS
Color films have existed since the very
beginning of cinema, thanks to the
traditional method of painting frame by
frame, or turn the film into
monochrome tones through a dye
bath. Following Newton's experiences
in the s. XVII and theories of color
vision set by Young and Helmholtz
in the nineteenth.
Some tapes of Edison
and Lumiere were
stained as postcards
and portraits.
By 1900, Parisian workers
skilled and underpaid brush
colored with thousands of
images that made the first
films of fantasy.
Charles Taze understood the potential of the film to motivate
people, so in 1912, began preparing the "Photo-Drama of
Creation", a film and slides, color and sound, eight hours of
duration. Many of these illustrations were based on the
engravings of the famous artist Gustav Doré.
Digital
cinematography is the
process of capturing
motion picture
as digital images, rather
than on film. Digital
capture may occur on
video , hard disks, flash
memory, or other ACTUAL
media which can FILMS
record digital data.
• Substantive debate over
the subject of film
resolution versus digital
image resolution is clouded
by the fact that it is difficult
to meaningfully and
objectively determine the
resolution of either.
However, the vast majority
of all blockbuster movies of
the first decade of the 21st
century have been finished
in 2K, which can easily be
surpassed by mechanical as
well as digital camera
systems.
• Films are traditionally
shot with dual-system
recording, where
picture is recorded on
camera, and sync
sound is recorded to a
separate sound
recording device.
Picture and sound are
then synced up in post-
production.
