Chapter 2: The use of technology and techniques and styles

Pieces such as Girl Chewing Gum, were made in the late 70's, although by todays standards the equipment used is primitive it may well have been the best available at the time. Many films experimented with the use of stop motion such as Gisele Kerozene, which was made in 1989 and creatively combined photographs to create a realistic looking piece. Doll face by andy huang is perhaps one of the most modern pieces that I have looked at, it combines clips of videos with computer animation, this would not really have been possible to do with a low budget until the late 90's, before only a few computer animated pieces had been released. The differences between the use of new technology and old technology are easily observed, newer technology is obviously more efficient to use, but It also can help set the mood for the film.
