MOMI


The Museum of the moving image is a really cool place and absolutely relates directly to what we are doing in this course. I really loved all the old scripts and costumes, especially “I Love Lucy” and “Mrs. Doubtfire”. I think these exhibits give us a closer look into what went on behind the scenes during those productions and allows us to break down some of the stuff we see on screen. It was also cool to see all the old make up that was used in films and T.V. shows, especially “Sex and the City”. I love Marilyn Monroe so it was cool to see her featured in the museum. I also thought that all of the old video game consoles were really cool, they show us the evolution of gaming and display some of the most popular and classic games that we all love. One of my favorite exhibits is the King Tut room. I really love time period movies and Ancient Egypt is one of my favorites. I think that’s its really beautiful and creative and really transports you to a different place when you are in that part of the museum. Another really cool part of the museum is all the old cameras. I think it’s really interesting to look at the equipment that was used in old Hollywood, how big it is compared to the equipment we use now, and how intricate they all look. This museum has everything to do with this class because it looks at every aspect of filmmaking, from pre-production, planning, to production, to wardrobe, ect. Going here is a really cool experience.
