Scientists are starting to study movies and how the human mind notices and doesn't notice things. This means they use eye tracking data to see what you are looking at and what your not. When they had people watching Iron Man 2 they found that everyone was looking at what was real and they weren't paying attention to what wasn't. For example, when the car was crashing everyone looked at the car not the CGI in the background. This is a part of visual perception, which is what the movies special effects team used a lot in that movie.
I got to say overall this was a pretty solid article. This article was short sweet and to the point. I like that in an article it doesn't bore you. But I do have to say that it doesn't take a genius to figure out why the eyes were looking at the car. I mean seriously if a car is blowing up I would look at the car not the background. I know it goes deeper then that but still come on people. That being said that was the only obvious point that i saw in the article, which also means I didn't learn a lot in this article. This is relevant to the video side of Digital Media and is relevant because it talks about how movies do certain things to capture the audiences eye.
WELL THAT IS THE END OF THIS SERIOUS TIME. AS ALWAYS I HOPE YOU HAVE ALL ENJOYED! I WILL SEE ALL YOUR LOVELY FACES LATER! PEACE!
