Movies have been a passion of mankind since its invention. Movies have been produced for over a century and have had a significant influence on our culture and entertainment industry. Movies are an important part of the entertainment industry, with movies being the single most popular form of entertainment. Movies have the power to take us to a new world, to different places and time, to experience emotions we would never normally feel and to make us laugh, cry or even just think differently. Movies can also bring insight into topics such as love, politics, life and death. Movies depict stories in an entertaining way that allow us to enter another world and explore it. Movies are produced by various departments in the production process. The three main departments in the production process include pre-production, production and post-production. Pre-production involves planning, writing and designing the movie. Production is the actual filming of the movie, while post-production is the editing and polishing of the footage. All departments work together to create the movie and some movies require additional departments such as stunt coordinators and special effects teams. The popularity of movies has increased over the years, due to the growth of streaming services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime. This has allowed people to access movies from the comfort of their own homes, giving them the option to watch movies of their choice whenever they want. This has also changed the way movies are made, with more emphasis being put on making the movie a visual experience. Movies also have an impact on television. Many of the most popular television shows are based on movies or inspired by them. Movies have also inspired many genres of television such as reality TV, animated shows and documentary series. Movies have become an integral part of everyday life, providing us with entertainment, inspiration, knowledge and understanding. Movies continue to be a major part of the entertainment industry and will no doubt continue to shape and influence our culture for years to come.
