Silent Films

Sorry this is coming a couple days late. I watched the videos but I haven't posted about them until now. I just have a couple of quick observations. The Trip to the Moon/ The Great Train Robbery examples are definitely valuable for class discussion.

The layering in Trip to the Moon is superb. This particular scene reminds me of Willy Wonka...






The way the background rolled by in the "window" behind the actors in The Great Train Robbery was an amazing special effect at the time...
