Uncanny Valley ??

Mannequins, realistic game interfaces, 3d animation movies...

does it make you uncomfortable when it gets too real??

When children in this era grows up watching things like this,

Would they end up confusing themselves of reality and realistic artworks?

Whilst looking at the bright side, these technologically advanced creations make everything much more believable and beautiful in their ways.

It gives us the freedom to create our own illusion of perfection, and get closer to it. 

Lets us emerge ourselves in our fantasies, and have our little piece of heaven. 

But would it be the same for kids who has yet to learn the differences??

In the age of rapid growth and intake of information around them, children may get confused, overwhelmed by all the augmented reality around them

Adding to that, the latest technologies that makes 3D graphics are only going to make it worse.

Seeing realistic (fake) characters come to life in 3D would convince kids that they're real. 

and what would happen???

Recently the spate of deadly incidents following the release of many successful movies at the box-office has increased.

According to his friends and teachers from school, Shivam was obsessed with becoming like Krrish. However director of Krrish, Rakesh Roshan says Krrish was made with the noblest of intentions. How were we to know there would be this tragic side-effect?
