Another film area linked to geography is the setting. Geography shows and gives us not only physical uses but visual as well. Geography has shaped our planet since it was nothing more than a volcanic rock into the unique areas and landscapes we can see today. Without this shaping element we would have had nothing to base our film sets on. There would be no unique landscapes and hence no green screen or other CGI concerning background. Could you imagine every film set being exactly the same apart from buildings. No mountains, no trees, no lakes, no tundras etc. The list goes on. However, some may say we could have built scenery from our imagination but some things just can't be replicated. And we would never to be able to relate to the scenes we were seeing because it would be alien to us. Without landscapes the world of film would be a much duller place.
