When we go and watch a movie in the cinema, we see real people moving and talking on a
big screen in front of us. But how are movies filmed and shown to us? In actual fact, movies
do not really 'move' like we think they do. It is our eyes that play tricks on us and make the

Trang 4/4 – Mã đề 102
movies look as if they are moving. A movie is filmed using a camera which takes pictures at a
very fast speed. The camera can take 24 pictures in one second! If it is taking pictures of
somebody walking, the pictures will show the different movements of the person in that one
second. Since the pictures are taken so quickly, the difference between each picture is very
slight. The pictures are developed into long strips of film which are then shown, using a film
projector. As we watch, 24 pictures flash before our eyes every second. The pictures go by so
fast that we cannot see each one by itself. What we see is just one picture that seems to move.
Our eyes play a part by blending the pictures with each other. The same method applies to
cartoons. In a cartoon, instead of taking pictures of real people, the camera takes pictures of
drawings. Many drawings have to be made just to show a simple action. Each drawing is
again made only slightly different from the others. The drawings are then photographed
orderly. When everything is complete and the cartoon is shown, it also looks as though the
characters are really moving.
