The
Birth of Hollywood.
Paramount Pictures produced very extravagant films
MGM produced opulent feel good films to distract people from the depression
Warner Brothers produced street wise edgy films about like those about investigators
advancements in technology allowed the film industry to take control of lighting and to create much more beautiful and realistic sets
engineering advancements allowed much more impressive filming techniques such as gliding imagery
they built grand theatres to show their grand films
Studios liked to be in control of every part of their production, the only thing that they werent in control of was the music, it was originally played in house as the movie went on, studios didn't like this so they sent out soundtracks to go along with the movies, this allowed them to produce "talkies"
the first talkie was 'the jazz singer' by warner brothers which was about a black jazz singer, a white man played him with black make up on like that of the black and white minstrells
charlie chaplin still produced silent films after the introduction of speech, films like modern times, he was very aware of this and used it well
The first blockbuster hit was produced, gone with the wind, which production cost $4 million and it grossed over $200 million.
Colours were heavily saturated and bright in films when colour was first introduced due to it being new, and people finding it so visually apealling, the bright colours also cheared people up in times of depression
Citizen Kane was produced in 1941, and it 'broke' all of the film rules in terms of camera angles and shots, aswell as set designs
snow white was produced which was the first full length feature animation
Walt disney revolutionised animated film, but became less inovative, as opposed to being drawn frame by frame it was photocopied instead
