7. In my point of view the Cinematography of the first films and cinematography of the films of our days, they have very big difference, because of a lot of criteria such as: Script- Storyboard- Music- Color-Time and etc.At that time it was't easy to make a film therefore, their films was no longer than 1 minute, but now days we can make a long film how long we want it and also in color pictures as well thanks to the films and techniques development.
