A brief history of film.
Photographer Eadweard Muybridge made the first significant advances in serial photography, and in 1877 took a series of photographs of a galloping horse to prove a bet that a horse lifts all four legs in a run. In 1887, celluloid came into use as the film medium. William Dickson of the Edison Company built on Muybridge’s technology to create the kinetograph, the first motion picture camera. The Lumiere brothers then created the first projector in 1895. The first motion pictures were closer to documentaries and real-life subjects, but Georges Melies changed the industry by creating original stories with film and created one of the first film studios in 1897.
Until 1927, films were produced without sound and were sometimes augmented by live music, and even human narration, and quickly, the cinema became the most dynamic new form of entertainment.
Said Jean-Luc Godard of filmmaking:
“A story should have a beginning, a middle, and an end…but not necessarily in that order.”
