Mission to Earth

The method of filmmaking was different between digital cinema and traditional cinema. Such as the story and appearance of the film. From "The Mission Earth", the technique it used was quiet creative.

Frist, there are no dialogue in the movie, only the voice-over was used to illustrate the story flow. Dialogue should be an important element in the traditional filmmaking as it can helps to traces and understanding the development of the story and the characteristic of the actor. Thus dialogue play an important part in the film of the traditional cinema.

Besides, There are two scene appear in "The Mission Earth", it is quiet weir and also creative for that filming technique. The two seperate frame were captured from inside and outside world from the main character, those two shot also represent the objective view from the outside world and subjective view from the main character. This kinds of filmmaking was much comprehensive for the audience to get a full picture from the character. But this method will also distract the audience's attention from the story. Since there are two scene appear at the same time in the film, which shot should we focus ?! As we are watching two scene, so more or less we will miss some inportant clues from the story when we lose our focus on a specific shot. And the two scene filming mwthod wiil not be presented in the traditional cinema.

Apart from that, on the story arrangement in "The Mission Earth", there are also differences as compare to the traditional one. There are frequent stop, when the scene stop it follows the new scene which was unnatural through the story, sometimes there are only image but no scene was presented, and the plot from the story were no rise and fall, the climax was not clear, it is just like a normal documentry rather than a scientific film. On the contrary, the story flow much smooth, and the plots were also naturally arrange by order in the traditional film. There should be more scientific effects or element be included in the so called Scientific movies, just like most of the Hollywood movie. 

All in all, there are lots of differences between digital cinema and traditional cinema by the mean of editing, story, plot etc.

This film remind me of the digital art. "The Mission Earth" and digital art also share the similarity of slience image. In "The Mission Earth", we can cut off the scene in to image which also allow us to follow the story, the absent of the dialogue between characters form the sence of silence and still life, sometimes the film will also show some pictures, those still image have the similarity of digital art, they all have the abtract idea or the digital effect.
