The Museum of the Moving Image was a first time experience for me. I was able to take in some of the history of many of todays mechanics, so often we take for granted the technology we have because we have gotten so used to it being fast, accessible, and convenient, however to realize the history is great to have at our advantage.
Some of the exhibits that stood out to me was the sound editing lab ,were we were able to dub over voices to many film classics. It was both educational as well as something we could get a laugh from. The photo image lab were multiple persons could be involved in a shot that generated multiple images was also fun and stood out as our first stop on the tour.To see the set design recreations and I think originals (I'm not totally sure) was interesting, seeing some of my favorites and classics such as The Wiz in the design aspect was interesting as well. those costumes to date are one of the most breathtaking, more so the Broadway rendition designed by the great Geoffery Holder. The evolution of the television was a worth while exhibit in passing with the internet dominating the visual landscape it was nice to see it in its infancy in regards to the television as a medium that has evolved tremendously from tubes to smart TV's, we have certainly come a long way.
It is a unique way to see how we have evolved with the images in technology it keeps drawing me back to the audio lab, while we as individuals distinctly have our own voice, tone, inflections ,dialect speech we can do so much technologically to alter it, with the multiple uses of technology that can take out and put in things, it makes me wonder what would come of technology in the future. I doubt the human voice would be extinct that's what separates us from the animals our speech and how we communicate but with technology advancing ,and the images moving, it shall be a sight to see.
