Week 7

I believe that the key difference between movies and theater is that the audience can control the movie as it is pre-recorded, but theater is a live production. Whether or not technology is included does not change this description.

Although some people believe that technology turns theater into a sort of psuedo-cinema, where the quality of the performance isn't as good as either a traditional theater performance or cinematic film, I believe that technology can be used to enhance the production and make a more interesting live performance. One example of this is  the use of projectors can be very useful because it can produce moving images while the actors in the play perform. Overall, I believe that the use of digital arts can enhance the production value of any medium and add a layer of interactivity to make a more immersive experience for the viewer.
