A
film, also called a movie or motion picture, is a series of still
or moving images. It is produced by recording photographic images
with cameras, or by creating images using animation techniques or
visual effects. The process of filmmaking has developed into an
art form and industry.

Films
are cultural artifacts created by specific cultures, which
reflect those cultures, and, in turn, affect them. Film is
considered to be an important art form, a source of popular
entertainment and a powerful method for educating — or
indoctrinating — citizens. The visual elements of cinema
give motion pictures a universal power of communication. Some
films have become popular worldwide attractions by using dubbing
or subtitles that translate the dialogue into the language of the
viewer.
Films
are made up of a series of individual images called frames. When
these images are shown rapidly in succession, a viewer has the
illusion that motion is occurring. The viewer cannot see the
flickering between frames due to an effect known as persistence
of vision, whereby the eye retains a visual image for a fraction
of a second after the source has been removed. Viewers perceive
motion due to a psychological effect called beta movement.
The
origin of the name "film" comes from the fact that
photographic film (also called film stock) has historically been
the primary medium for recording and displaying motion pictures.
Many other terms exist for an individual motion picture,
including picture, picture show, moving picture, photo-play and
flick. A common name for film in the United States is movie,
while in Europe the term film is preferred. Additional terms for
the field in general include the big screen, the silver screen,
the cinema and the movies.
