Etymology

The word 'film' comes from the Old English term 'film', which means a thin skin or membrane. This early usage referred to any thin layer of material. Over time, the term evolved to describe the celluloid that was used for the production of moving images. The concept of film as a medium for storytelling became prominent in the late 19th century with the advent of the motion picture camera and the establishment of the film industry. Initially, films were silent and short, but as technology improved, the industry saw the introduction of sound, color, and various genres, transforming film into a significant form of entertainment and cultural expression worldwide.
