The world of film is full of a variety of viewers. There are the avid lovers and critics. There are the simple enjoyers. There are the followers who are merely attracted to the films which they hear are worthwhile. Among others, there are also those movie lovers who lack the awareness of the extent of their passion. These individuals (like myself) enjoy films and all that encompasses the making of films, however, lack the full motivation to extend their passion. I feel that this class will improve my standards and understanding of the film community and ideas.

I have never really delved into the history of film and the motivation/progression of the early stages of film. It would seem to me that such technology would inevitably develop eventually. This idea does not take away from the interest which sparks from the actual progression that occurred. From still pictures, to multiple, chronological still pictures, to the idea of motion pictures and so forth. Such a timeline represents not only the history of film but the very essence which film has become today: a constant development.
