17.  Film History The Beginnings

18. Three Ways to Look at Film History Technology Art Business

19. Inventors  Early film is a result of inventors, not artists.

20. Persistence of Vision  The ability of the brain to retain an image a split second longer than the eye actually sees it.  If we see 16 individual images in rapid succession the brain connects them to make a fluid sequence of movement.  BUT NOT…  ‘Apparent Motion’

21. Toy Makers  Toy makers used this theory to create hand held machines that were the basis of film development.

22. Zoetrope  Circular drum with slits.  allows moments of darkness.  creates illusion of movement.  1834 by William Horner.

23. Experimentation  Was going on in many countries at the same time.  France, Germany, England, and the U.S. all claim to have invented the movies.

24.  Photography Had to have photography before motion pictures

25. Important Dates  1816  1816 - Nicephore Niepce made first photographic images.  1839  1839 - Louis Daguerre created clear, sharp images on silver copperplate.  Required 15 minutes exposure time.  1841  1841 - Only 3 minutes needed for exposure. Daguerre Self-portrait

26. Eadweard Muybridge  1872  1872 - Set up 12 cameras along a track, tied strings to the shutters which were tripped as the horse ran down the track.  Created movement with photography.

27. Etienne-Jules Marey  1882  Invents “photographic gun.”  Lens in the muzzle, paper in the chamber.  Pull trigger and have 12 rapid exposures.  Eventually 100 exposures.

28. George Eastman  1884  Developed celluloid film.  Originally created for the still camera, it made motion pictures possible.  Flexible and allows light to pass through. Eastman and Edison make movies

29.  1889  William Dickson (working for Thomas Edison) begins using celluloid film.  First film in America. Fred Ott’s Sneeze

30.  Motion Picture Photography Solved! Filmmakers now had to find a way to show their images.

31. Kinetoscope 1889  October 1889 Dickson shows Edison projection with sound.  Quality is poor.  Edison opts for silent, individual showings of films.  Invents Kinetoscope. Kinetoscope Open

32. Kinetoscope  Kinetoscopes were set up in parlors.  You would see dancing, juggling, clowning, wonders of the world, a few re-enactments.  No stories yet. Kinetoscope Closed

33. Thomas Edison  Despite Edison’s shortsightedness in mass projection he did leave his mark on motion pictures.  He contributed sprocket holes on film.  Black Maria.  First movie studio.

34. Black Maria  Camera could only move forward and backward.  Roof opened to allow sunlight in.  Building rotated to catch sun’s rays.  Camera used electricity.

35. These are a few of the contributions from America. The history now goes back to Europe.

36.  Projection Projection was a difficult problem to solve. Its roots go back as far as 1646.

37. Magic Lantern  1646  Father Athanasius Kircher made drawings of a box that could reproduce an image through a lens.  Ancestor of present day slide projector.

38. 18th Century  Showmen travel across Europe showing magic lantern shows.  Used drawn images in the beginning.  Eventually used photographs. Phantasmagoria

39. 19th Century  Photo plays drew viewers to a story just as film does today.  Combination of magic lantern shows, live actors, and photography.  Some lasted up to 2 hours and told melodramatic stories.  Proved the potential of projected film.

40. Projection Problems  Projector needs a powerful light source to make images clear.  Film has to run smoothly past this light source without tearing. Vitascope Projector

41. Late 19th Century  Discovered intermittent movement was needed (similar to Zoetrope slits).  Each frame stops briefly in front of the light source.  Ended problem of the light source and tearing.  Created problem of burning film.  Invented cooling system (similar to today’s).

42. Lumiere Brothers  1894  Tinker with Edison’s Kinetoscope.  Designed their own machine within a year. Auguste and Louis

43. Cinematographe  Machine shot the pictures, printed them, and projected them.  The camera was portable.  A hand crank provided the power.

44. December 28, 1895  First theater opens to the paying public.  Basement of a Paris café.  Lumieres’ show:  Workers leaving the Lumiere Factory.  Arrival at Lyon.  A Baby’s Meal.
