Edgar Allan Poe In Television And Film
American poet and short story writer Edgar Allan Poe has had significant influence in television and film. Many are adaptations of Poe's work, others merely reference it. Film Adaptations * Perhaps most well known are the films directed by Roger Corman and starring Vincent Price such as ' House of Usher, the first in the series. The following movie, The Premature Burial, starred Ray Milland and Hazel Court, with Price notably absent. ''The Haunted Palace'' (1963) adopts the title of Poe's poem, but is more closely derived from the works of H. P. Lovecraft, in particular ''The Case of Charles Dexter Ward''. Corman hoped to remove himself from Poe adaptations and turned ''The Raven'' into a comedic effort. Likewise, the middle segment in ''Tales of Terror'', based on " The Black Cat" and "The Cask of Amontillado", is intended to be humorous. *In the 1930s and 1940s, Universal Studios adapted several Poe stories—and used others as inspirational jump-off points—primarily starri ...

''Camera obscura'' can also refer to analogous constructions such as a box or tent in which an exterior image is projected inside. Camera obscuras with a lens in the opening have been used since the second half of the 16th century and became popular as aids for drawing and painting. The concept was developed further into the photographic camera in the first half of the 19th century, when camera obscura boxes were used to expose light-sensitive materials to the projected image. The camera obscura was used to study eclipses without the risk of damaging the eyes by looking directly into the sun. As a drawing aid, it allowed tracing the projected image to produce a highly accurate representation, and was especially appreciated as an easy way to achieve proper graphical perspective.
