Viktor Rodriguez FILM HISTORY (1/4 quarter exam) 1.) Why is Eadweard Muybridge an important historical figure? Muybridge was instrumental in the development of instantaneous photography. To accomplish his famous motion sequence photography, Muybridge even designed his own high speed electronic shutter and electro-timer, to be used alongside a battery of up to twenty-four cameras. While Muybridge 's motion sequences helped revolutionize still photography, the resultant photographs also punctuated the history of the motion picture. Muybridge actually came close to producing cinema himself with his projection device the 'Zoöpraxiscope '. With this device, Muybridge lectured across Europe and America, using the Zoöpraxiscope …show more content…
That domination reflected their origins as equipment manufacturers and subsequent integration downstream into exhibition and production, with Pathé also having a significant presence in music recording based on its early manufacture of gramophones. The Gaumont cinemas were nationalised in 1938 but released after 1945 In 1970 Gaumont and Pathé formed a Groupement d 'Intérêt Économique (GIE) for distribution to their exhibition chains and associates, in competition with L 'Union Générale de Cinématographie (UCG, privatised 1971) that centered on nationalised production houses and their cinemas. The Pathé-Gaumont GIE was dissolved in 1982. Jérôme 's brother Nicolas acquired control of Gaumont in the mid-1970s. In 2001 the Gaumont and Pathé cinema chains were merged as EuroPalaces SA, with some 86 theatres (with 633 screens in France, 96 in the Netherlands, 13 in
King and Dufferin area located in the Parkdale neighbourhood surrounded by Dufferin on the East , south by Lake Ontario ,west by Roncesvalles avenue and north by the Canadian Pacific railway. This area used to be an industrial area with many factories and the main reason for this was the presence of the Canadian Pacific railway which was used and is still used for transportation of the manufactured goods. There were homes built around for families that worked in the factories. According to Tom Slater (2008) , by 1884 there were two main factories the Inglis and Massey-Harris(2). These companies during the world war two produced armaments and afterwards that most factories were demolished after factories started
.... 'It is a moment when the visible escapes from the timeless incorporeal order of the camera obscura and becomes lodged in another apparatus, within the unstable physiology and temporality of the human body'. Crary further demonstrates the shift in vision's location from camera to body by examining the way in which it was reproduced in various optical devices invented during this same period, specifically the stereoscope, the kaleidoscope, the phenakistiscope, and the diorama. His examination is based on a provocative premise: 'There is a tendency to conflate all optical devices in the nineteenth century as equally implicated in a vague collective drive to higher and higher standards of verisimilitude' (110). According to Crary, such an approach tends to neglect entirely how some of these devices were expressions of what he calls 'nonveridical' models of perception.
There first invention produced was the Technicolor System 1 Additive Color, which I’m sorry to say flopped massively due to the unfortunate screening of The Gulf Between in 1917 which only a few frames remain of this film today. This was the first public premier of the technology and was disastrous. The film was captured through two separate filters red and green and the light through those two filters was captured on a single reel of film, when processed this negative had red and green information captured on a black and white reel, when this was processed the reel was placed into a projector and then threw red and green filters. To project the image an adjustable prism that had to manually lined up by the projectionist as two separate images formed on the projection screen this did not work as planned as the projectionist failed to line up the images correctly.
Lansdowne Road, located at West 43rd street 10th Ave, brings people together in a popular neighborhood, Hell’s Kitchen, located at the west side of Manhattan. Pat Hughes, owner of Lansdowne Road, and his partners Mike Pew and Dan McLaughlin established Lansdowne Road, an Irish bar, with their savings and loans from the bank in the mid-2000s. Lansdowne Road has 18 employees and has an income of $826,000 USD per year. Lansdowne Road’s income positions Lansdowne to accommodate each employee, due to Governor Cuomo’s executive budget plan. Moreover, businesses with a sales volume of more than $500,000 USD per year, are expected to apply the new minimum wage of $15 an hour by 2018.
...o settle a bet of whether all for hooves of a horse were in the air as they ran. This was impossible to be seen by just the human eye alone. So, Muybridge was asked to help by Stanford in which he agreed. Muybridge was never able to perfect the method of motion photography at the time because there was noting for him to work off of, by using 12 cameras to take photographs of the horse running in a sequence shot was able to make the assumption that Stanford’s prediction was correct that all hooves left the ground and were in the air at the same time while galloping. Muybridge went on to have a remarkable academic career which included teaching at the University of Pennsylvania from 1883-1886, publishing several books that explained the processes to capturing motion photographs, then shared the process of a projection device that he invented called the Zoopraxiscope.

Discussion First, I will examine the restrictive covenants that occurred in Levittown. Levittown, NY was the first suburbia that was created in order to create a new frontier for American families seeking a new home. However, there was a hidden side of the new suburbia, a suburbia that consisted of restrictive covenants. Rather than the focus being on the production of new homes to the public, the hidden implications were established in order to create a “safe haven” for Caucasian families. (Galyean) Inequalities in opportunities occurred when it came to minorities seeking out opportunities to move out from the urban city life.
According to popular history, democracy, acceptance and equal opportunities for all, were integral parts of society in the United States ever since the settlement of the New England colonies. In Lockridge 's book, he attempts to dispel these myths by using the New England town of Dedham as a case study showing that although Dedham had some these uniquely 'American ' aspects, the majority of them were in fact gradually developed over time.

Eadweard Muybridge was a director who made the first movie in 1878, The Horse in Motion. He used multiple cameras and put the individual pictures into a movie. Muybridge’s movie was just pictures of a galloping horse. Muybridge also invented the Zoopraxiscope,the first ever movie projector that made short films and movies. It was able to quickly project images, creating what is known as motion photography and the first movie to ever exist. To use the Zoopraxiscope a disc is put on the device and is turned. As the disc turns, the images are projected onto the screen and the movie starts ...
Photography is a part of almost everyone's everyday life whether it is through a smartphone, laptop, or professional camera. Before the late 1800s, though, even a simple picture was not possible. Although many people worked hard and put their ideas and inventions of new cameras in the world, Louis Daguerre is among one of the most important. Michael Hart, in his book, The 100: A Ranking of the Most Influential Persons in History, ranks Daguerre as the 47th most influential person in the world. This ranking is appropriate because of the many ways his invention influenced today's world. His technique was practical and widely used in the 1800s. Although his methods are different
The idea for photographing came around in 1814 when Joseph Niépce wanted an image of his son before he left for war. He succeeded in making the first camera in 1827, but the camera needed at least eight hours to produce one picture. Parisian Louis Daguerre invented the next kind of camera in 1839, who worked with Niépce for four years. His camera only needed fifteen to thirty minutes to produce a picture. Both Niécpe’s and Daguerre’s cameras made pictues on metal plates. In the same year Daguerre made his camera, an Englishman by the name of William Henry Fox Talbot made the first camera that photographed pictures on paper. The camera printed a reverse picture onto a negative and chemicals were needed to produce the photo up right. In 1861, color film came along and pictures were produced with color instead of being just black and white. James Clerk Maxwell is credited with coming up with color film, after he took the ...

If we go back beyond Lumière Brothers’ projection of their cinematography in Paris over Christmas 1895, which is too straightforward birth narration of cinema; ancient visual forms like Egyptian hieroglyphics or pre-cinematic technologies of image capture and projection, known as magic lanterns, employing a series of lenses and light sources, were early proof of humanity mesmerised by the play and tricks of light and shades.
