Do you like watching films? Today let's know about some special films.
Animation (动画片)
Animation is one of the oldest special kinds in the film world. It began in the early 1900s. It is not difficult but it does take a lot of time and hard work.
First, someone paints or draws a picture. Then they take a picture of it. They make another picture, which is just a little bit different from the first one, and take another picture.
Animated films of any kind take a lot of time to make, but in the end, these special films are touching, funny or simply amazing.
IMAX films
IMAX is short for " Image Maximum (巨幕电影)" . When you watch an IMAX film, you don't sit up—you lie back. The screen is above, in front of and around you.
In order to create its effects, IMAX films use different theatres, cameras and film from other movies. Most IMAX theatres are in museums, science centers and theme (主题) parks. The IMAX camera is very large and uses a lot of film. It is also very heavy.
3-D films
3-D films are not new. They first appeared in 1903. The inventors wanted viewers to feel like they were really inside the movie they were watching! When you watch a 3-D movie, you feel as if the people on the screen are close enough to touch and that the airplane flying at you is flying right off the screen.
Usually, one side of the glasses is red and the other is light blue. If you look at the image below with these special glasses, you'll see the 3-D effect.
A. This is why most IMAX films are only about 40–60 minutes long. B. You can also stand up if you like. C. This is repeated at least 12 times to make one second of film! D. You don't look at a screen in front of you. E. To watch 3-D films, you must wear special glasses. |
