MOMI

When I walked into the Museum of the Moving Image, everything was so lively.  As I was walking up the stairs, there was a screening that was playing. At first, I didn’t really pay an attention, but then I gazed at the projector for a second and I couldn’t walk away not watching the Animation that was playing.  The Animation that was playing was called “ Plymptoons” its by Bill Plympton.  This short film of Bill Phympton was very humorous and the creativity was beautiful. I have enjoyed watching this short animation very much.

                Then as I was looking around the museum, I was really excited to see all the arts and exhibitions. I didn’t except to see all these exciting things at this museum since it’s in Astoria.  When I went to the second floor, I saw some very old cameras and recording.  The old fashion cameras were heavier and huge, unlike the once from today.  It was amazed looking at a very human like statue that was displayed,  it was of the girl from the movie “Exorcist ” , which is one of my most favorite movie. She looked very real and scary as she did in the movie.

                Another part of the exhibition that I enjoyed the most was going to the computers, and  select to play short scenes  from the movies. I have never seen the movie “ Twister”, so when I clicked to preview the short scene from that movie, It was pretty amazing how the shot was taken.  I loved the way how the shot was taken from long and wide angle,  then it zooms into the two characters inside the car.  I have enjoyed going to the museum of the Moving Image as much as I have enjoyed going to the MOMA, but I did not except to see all those amazing exhibitions. I would defiantly go back there again.
