Hi All,
The Teen Movie thread got me thinking. It seems that each decade brings something new to the table in the form of the evolution of the art of storytelling (in this case, movies and T.V.).
This is an opened ended question that I would love to see some debate on. Also, as artists, I think it is important that we know our history (definitely a chance for some of our wiser brotheren to school us)
What has each decade done in the way of film and television?
I can't help but think that the 80s was a pivotal decade for film, riding on the heels of Star Wars.
The 80s also gave birth to the story-telling Music Video, prior to that, music videos just consisted of a thousand different views of people playing their instruments and singing the song.
But this question isn't just about the 80s, but all decades.
How has T.V. / filmed evolved on a decade by decade basis?
Does any decade reign supreme?
Does any decade hold supremacy over a particular story form?
What did the various decades bring to the table?
ANy particular decade catch your fancy?
And any other general comment debate about the evolution of film/TV and where you think it is going.
Mel...
