The historical artifact I chose was a film poster from 1933. It is a form of visual communication that references the other, “poster” to “film.” King Kong, a very well-known film remade multiple times over the last century, is an icon to the industry. I was fascinated by the leap in special effects that they used in this film. They used glass painting, puppetry, live models and more to make the movie immersive and seamless(in terms of timing). It had the most filming and animating methods used in movie history. I wanted to recreate this poster that shows the extent of the modernization of filming in the early 1900s by making it engaging today, many decades later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
