F. I . L . M ; & what it is to fashion


A FILM, also called a movie or motion picture, is a series of still or moving images that are produced by the recording of images using a camera or by creating images using animation techniques or visual effects. Filmmaking has become an art form and industry. Films help to also reflect cultures, people and their personalities. Film is considered to be an important form of art, a source of popular entertainment and a powerful method for educating people. The visual elements of cinema give motion pictures a universal power of communication. Some films have become popular worldwide attractions by using subtitles that traslate the dialogue into the language of the viewer so that people of other nationalities who speak and converse in a different language, can still watch a movie that is in a different language. This diversifies people, exposing thing to cultures and facts they had never seen or heard of before.
How is fashion then related to film?




Films are primarily visual mediums; they communicate to their audience via their sense of sight. Films are made up of visual cues such as colors, movements, facial expressions, costumes, props, etc.
Fashion has always been an intricate part of films. Without fashion, films would be incomplete. Films encompass dialogues, movements, sounds and fashion. The costumes in a film are a crucial aspect to understanding the emotional concerns of the characters in the film.
