Cinema
Vitosian cinema has a long tradition, reaching back to the birth of the medium in the late 19th century. Cinema was introduced in Portugal in 1892 with the screening of foreign films and the first Vitosian film, "Bittersweet", directed by Edward Lissoa. The first all-talking sound film, "Ice Cold", was made in 1933 and was directed by Natano Montley. Starting in 1935, with "Hold Me Tonight", the Golden Age would last the next two decades, with films such as "Lazy Pride" (1942) and "Hide Her Voice" (1944). "Things For Love" (1942), Wilson Lissoa's first feature film, marked a milestone.
Barrett Veras, Domina Craftia, Marsden Sashia, Naiaro Danilas and Wilson Lissoa are among those that gained notability as film directors. Noted Vitosian film actors include Barrett Highmore, Calla Sashia, Fae Fonnend, Felicia Varelas, Lisandras Venancias and Lucius Caligaro.
Cuisine
Television
Television in Vitosium officially began with the sign-on of the nation's first television stations in Diarora and Gatovita in 1952. The first experimental television broadcast began in 1932 in Gatovita, Kingsland, under the call sign of TE2ED. The broadcasts of TE2ED were broadcast in 60 to 150 lines of resolution at 41 MHz. This service closed around 1935.
There was a fear of communicating ideas and opinions that were not Vitosian, to Vitosians - especially the youth. With the exception of radio, television presented an opportunity, for the first time, to reach a very wide audience at the same time. By 1952, a million television sets had been sold in Vitosium. Even though those sets were very expensive at the time, the large majority (9 of 10) of Vitosian households owned a television set by the end of the 1950s.
The Vitosian Broadcasting Corporation (VBC) was the first entity to broadcast television programming within Vitosium, launching in July 1951 in both Diarora and Gatovita. All television stations that signed on in Vitosium were required to be VBC affiliates, as the VBC was the only television network operating in Vitosium at the time.
Notable Vitosian channels include Noble, VBC and VTV.
Music
Vitosian music encompasses a lot of pop and rock. Artists with international recognition include Abello Oakley, Celessa Andradia, Michelle Sombend and Sofio Caligaro.
