The first place we went to was the Kodak gallery...It was a very interesting gallery with some well thoughtout exhibition techniqiues. I was slightly disappointed with the gallery as it lacked a sense of progression, despite starting with the birth of the camera and its early forms it suddenly jumps to the modern day before going back to cameras in the 50's-80's. I think the gallery could have been more affective if there was a clear progression of time as it would have enabled the development of camera to shine through. Despite this I did like how the different areas were designed around their era's as this added to the context of the camera's, however I did feel the decoration was perhaps a little too ornate and did slightly detract from the exhibition.
I was also very impressed with the Evolve exhibition, part of the Experience TV permenant gallery. Evolve is the temporary exhibition space which addresses significant current issues and events involving television. Exhibitions in this space are renewed approximately every 12 months. It was very bright and eye-catching, and liked how the displays integrated different types of media. The use of simple display techniques such as standard boards showing small sections of text combined with images, and various text sizes to distinguish between the different areas of information.
