Document Summary

We go from recording on photonegative film to recording to data. Icon is a type of sign that resembles something. Symbol is different than an icon because it really has no connection to what it refers to. Indexical sign is used in documentaries and it actually has a connection. Just like smoke and fire, if you see smoke you know there is fire. We do not have an index when it is recorded on digital film because there is no more light, everything is recorded in pixels. The term documentary defined as the creative treatment of actuality. It is showing reality but in a creative and different way. Blair witch project (1999) was one of the first films which introduced filmmaking in a different way. Films were now considered to be closer to reality which introduced shooting without film. This is when found footage and digital were introduced.
