how did the invention of the camera advance communication skills?
Byyess im really wondering how the invention of the camera advance the communication skills in the world
Because the camera offered a view into a moment, it became a medium to share the slice of the world that an individual or family was experiencing at that moment.
The advent of photography offered newspapers a heretofore unheard of luxury - a picture to add that special 1,000 words to any article they might have written.
People were able to discuss the things they saw in the photographs and in a small measure, become part of the story told in the still photograph.
Through the proliferation of photography from sea to shining sea, we had living proof of the nation becoming whole. It was discussed in parlors and living rooms nationwide. Opinions about how our country should operate and the outreach to other nations changed our conversation from just us to the concerns of the larger world.
