cinema. A watershed within
Anglophone popular culture, Pulp

                      that allow the shots to virtually get
                      rid of the old still camera format. The
                      new format is known as the virtual
                      camera.
                      •With the creation of the virtual
                      backgrounds and CGI
                      innovations, The Matrix paved the
                      way for its sequels to adventure into
