Comments of the articles by Le Manovich

I do agree with Manovich's points of view in his article that the digital Cinema is a sub-genre of painting. It is no longer a tool of story telling or an indexical media technology. As we know Cinema is used to be a live action footage which show images. But by now the digital cinema is able to add more elements on the footage. It is a artist's brush to "paint" images. In his words it is a revolution in the field of cinema.
In his another article Myths of Computer Graphics he points out the importance of the 3D computer graphics and animation that made a realism effect on the photographic/film. The moving pictures become the real scenes. However, he warns the side effects for the creation of the artificial reality that is lack of real realities. The computer animation is not to improve the skills for making good cinema, but instead of becoming a tool of making money.
