I found the Lumiere Museum to be very engaging and interesting. I loved how we could play with so many interactive aspects. Another thing I really enjoyed was how they didn't solely focus on just the Lumiere brother's influence on cinema, yes it was a big focus but it wasn't the only thing. I really liked how they showed other inventions with similar functions from inventors around the world. It really showed how everyone was building off one another's ideas even though they might be physically far from each other. It was also interesting to see what else the Lumiere brothers, and their family members, were interested in. I loved hearing about how the entire family was very close and how they would work together on their projects. Another thing I found really interesting was to hear about how the brothers actually didn't want to create the device they were most known for, the only reason they did it was because their dad asked them to and their being scientists really led them to enjoy how to figure out a problem. They also did this when messing with colored pictures, they had the need to create something new and kept trying different techniques until they got the result they wanted. Overall, I really enjoyed the museum and found all parts to be very informative.

I also really liked that they added all sorts of technology that the Lumiere family didn't create. Showing off how cinema and photography really started. Touching up on how cinema was a group effort and not just an individual. I also felt a bit bad for the brothers when their other amazing inventions were overshadowed by something they weren't too interested in the first place. Like the guide said how color photography was their pride and joy, but before coming to the museum I would have never known they had a hand in creating it.
ReplyDeleteShowing how the inventions built off of each other was really useful in understanding the whole process and history of cinema. I also agree the interaction in the museum made it overall more engaging.
