This is a social anthropology question relating to media eg photography and film.
'A picture is worth a thousand words.'
How might photographs and film contribute to anthropological understanding?
they are extremely insightful because they not only show the people in the picture/film, but they tell alot about the filmmaker/photographer by what they choose to include/disclude... it says alot about how they view the world and the culture...
Reply:because they can give an insight into the culture at the time.
there is a great post war news clip famous in austalia called the dancing man.
he was so overjoyed that the war was over he danced through the streets.
