Zoetrope and Zoopraxiscope |
I'm using two z-words since a Zoetrope and a Zoopraxiscope are similar primitive motion picture devices--giving motion to images.
Images in the zoetrope are inside a drum with slits - you view them through the slits. Images for a zoopraxiscope are on a rotating glass disc and projected onto a wall.

And that, folks, is the end of the 2015 Blogging from A to Z April Challenge. This was my first time, and I already have theme ideas for the next three A to Z challenges!
Speaking of challenges...this blog kicks off a monthly Video Challenge starting tomorrow, May 1. Check that date for details.
Wow. These videos are wonderful. I enjoy studying the history of film. Trudy have you seen the documentary series The Story of Film: An Odyssey? It's fascinating. It is on Netflix.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen that! Thanks for the recommendation...I added it to my Netflix list.

Loving your theme :) I think it's really interesting seeing what everyone chose for their themes!
