Changes in Film

I want to understand visual art. In my own mind there seems to be a chain medium. This chain began with painting, done on cave walls long ago. The cave wall transformed into canvas, which master painters adored. Then photography and later film. Each is a iteration of the previous. Today, each form of visual art is alive, transformed but alive none the less.

Painting, Photography, Film, Video Games.

The evolution of the visual arts is ever expanding because of innovations and advancements in technology. These advancements in technology are changing the way an artist can express himself but is also has changed the way the public consumes art and the way visual art is produced.
Making it easier and less expensive to create visual art allowed an explosion of amateur art to enter into the public arena. This causes problems for the traditionally trained artist to find a niche in the marketplace. This is the problem I face, being educated, I struggle to be seen, to be noticed.
