The technologies used in these movies are mostly different in each one. If you look at the girl chewing gum and Koyaanisqatsi these could not be more different. Koyannisqatsi had a massive budget in the late 80s where they were able to use the very best in technology they could use.

In the 1970s John Smith's piece was very much used without much technology at all. He just had a basic camera and went straight to work on what he wanted to do.

Girsele Keronze on the other hand had some brilliant special effects and Jan Kaunen could use C.G.I. in his work with work being sped up. Where as the other works were focussed on everything this had close- up shots on characters.

These works all link in together, although they were created in different decades they all link in with very similar ideas.

Remember you need to view these in the context of the time they were created. Koyaanisqatsi was modern at the time it was created? Try and tie these together and discuss them under the same headings i.e. Effects, Styles or production costs?
