Film originated in the 1890s and was initially difficult to edit as it involved manually cutting strips of camera film. The development of digital cameras in 1975 and improved computer software revolutionized the film industry by making movie production and editing less difficult. While cinemas now charge high prices, streaming services and developments like smartphones, tablets, and Blu-ray have provided more convenient and affordable ways for audiences to view movies on the go, leading to changes in the media industry.
