OPTICAL ILLUSION OBJECTS

Discover the exciting world of optical illusion objects and the tricks that bring cinema to life!

These interactive tools demonstrate how light, movement and perspective combine to create the magic of moving images. By manipulating these objects, students explore the principles of perception that are the basis of film-making.

From spinning zoetropes to playful pinehole camera and magical hologram, each exhibition offers practical learning, mixing history, science and creativity. These activities are designed to stimulate the imagination and connect the origins of cinema with today’s visual storytelling.

Take your class on a journey through the early days of cinema and watch curiosity take the lead!
