Lights, Camera, London - NOW OPEN |  Capturing the Shadows THE FILM INDUSTRY sprang into life in the 1890s, and after 120 years celluloid is fading out as a production and exhibition medium, as chemical photography gives way to digital imaging.
At this major turning point, our new display CAPTURING THE SHADOWS provides a peep at the old established media – shadow theatre and the optical lantern, photography, and kinetic animation – that each provided an element towards the invention of cinematography. |  In focus at the LFM Our blog shares our passion for film, photography, the arts and the great artisans from whom we derive so much pleasure, and everything in between; basically an open book/blog!

The visitor simply holds the IPad onto one of the many QR codes around the exhibit and it simultaneously serves up information, pictures and clips onto the screen, giving the user a whole new dimension in appreciating the subject.
