Film and video production.

Any piece of film or video is moving imagery and light captured by a camera. The camera is quite similar to the human eye. Light hits the lens and it is instantly transported through a series of mediums before it can be decoded to a flat surface known as film and video. The lens is similar to our corneas. It captures the light that hits it, and is responsible for focusing the image. This focused image passes through an open shutter and is refracted through a series of mirrors. The image may bounce back and forth covering over 10 feet worth of traveling within the tiny body of the camera. The image will eventually reach an area where it is exposed to light sensitive material known as film and video. Once this film and video is exposed to light, it will hold the image exposed to it on top of it. Light can be shown through this translucent surface and projected onto a much larger surface, such as a movie screen. This is how a camera captures and produces imagery.
