This is the Imax projector, on show for everyone to
see at the museum.
The National Museum of Photography, Film and Television
in Bradford is one of the most recent jewels in West
Yorkshire's crown but in its twenty years of existance
it has established itself as the most visited museum
outside London.
Much
more than just a museum, it also houses what was the
first Imax theatre in the UK and has two other cinemas
which show both art-house and more mainstream films.
The Pictureville auditorium is the only public Cinerama
cinema in the world.
It
is the home of the Bradford International Film and Bite
the Mango Festivals as well as many other events.
The
Museum collection comprises more than three million
objects and will soon house the Royal Photographic Collection.
The
building itself has already been expanded and given
a new facade to bring it into the digital age
