When it happened in
Cambodia and how is it ?
Some history of filmmaking in Cambodia
In the early 1920s, documentary films were made in
Cambodia by foreign producers.
During the 1950s, films were made in Cambodia by
producers who studied abroad.
In 1966, King Norodom Sihanouk released the film
Apsara, starring Ream Bopha Devi.
Since the 1960s, many productions have started to
grow.
In the 60s and early 70s, when the Cambodian film
industry was booming and cinemas were born
Growing steadily and with the flow of film
screenings in the city and in the provinces
throughout Countries such as Kandal, Kampong
Cham, Battambang, Kampot and so on.
On April 17, 1975, the film industry passed away.
The film industry was revived in the 1980s after the
fall of the Pol Pot regime on January 7, 1979
It also collapsed again in the late 1990s after an
unrestrained invasion of foreign films.
Cambodian films also made a comeback in mid-
2003 after protests against Thai video stars Neang
Kob called the morning star and it died again from
the end of 2006 to January 2011

commercially with Fiddlin’ John Carson garnering the genre’s first hit record in
1923
Small radio stations appeared in the larger Southern and Midwestern cities in
the 1920s, and many devoted part of their airtime to live or recorded music
suitedtowhiteruralaudiences.
20th century
evolution
Music has many changes since and then and is quickly
developed since 20th century.

music was rhythmic, repetitive and danceable.

obviously focused on dancing (funk and hip hop).

rock; the Beach Boys and the Beatles (Pet Sounds, Pepper’s

spreading the disco.

white rock music
Its changes nowadays

The sound of music has changed as society has changed over the
years, thus the change in the sound of music is really a reflection of
our cultural evolution.
More musical instruments were developed and played together
which resulted in more sophisticated and complex sounds being
produced. The beats, rhythms, tempo and lyrics of songs all changed
along with the change in cultures.
