Blog Assignment #1

I saw a lot of interesting things at the museum, such as the history of moving images, the process of film devices, and so on. The most interesting thing that I saw is televisions from 1950’s. They were almost 60 years old, so therefore they were huge and looked like a box as well as the other old TVs. However, the biggest difference between the 1950’s TVs and the other old TVs were their design and decoration, and I loved it. According to the lady who was working in the museum, in 1950’s women were always staying at home and doing house works. They did not work outside of a house at all; therefore, these married women were the people who mostly watched TVs often. Regarding to it, the decorations on the 1950’s TVs were very feminine: surface of the TVs were pink or gold. Not only the color, but also the shapes of these 1950’s TVs were also feminine. The 50’s TVs were shaped into electrical machines which women often use for house working, such as a washing machine or stoves. The 1950's TVs reflected characteristics of the year, and it was very interesting to me. Another interesting thing I saw at the museum was the pictures of the historical movie stars. All of the pictures were on the wall so that I could see the differences among the movie stars. For example, there were two famous actresses' picture next to each other and the two actresses were very contrasting: one of them was a sexy woman who looked like she was on one of the Film Noir movies. The other actress looked very innocent and pure. The movie stars' pictures were on the same wall, therefore I could see the differences among them and it was very interesting.
