A brief history of some of the pivotal moments in cinema, throughout the ages. This is opinion based; it is what I consider to be some of the most important moments (it's impossible to fit everything into a 20 minute video), so feel free to comment anything that you consider important in film history that I may have left out! I will be covering more in future videos so stay tuned! This is my first video so any feedback is welcome.

The history of cinematography dates back to the late 19th century and has evolved significantly over the years. It all began with the invention of the first motion picture camera, the Kinétoscope, by William Kennedy Dickson in 1891, while he was working for Thomas Edison. This device projected images onto a screen, marking the beginning of the cinematography era. In 1895, the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, invented the Cinématographe, a device that could both record and project motion pictures. This innovation led to the first public screening of a motion picture, which took place on December 28, 1895, in Paris. Early cinematography primarily focused on capturing short, simple scenes, known as actualities. These included events like sporting competitions, parades, and natural disasters. As the technology advanced, filmmakers began experimenting with narrative storytelling, leading to the creation of the first narrative film, "The Story of the Kelly Gang" in 1906. The 1910s saw the introduction of new techniques like close-ups, cross-cutting, and camera movement, which allowed filmmakers to tell more engaging and emotionally impactful stories. This era also marked the transition from silent films to talkies with the release of "The Jazz Singer" in 1927. Color cinematography was introduced in the early 1930s with the Technicolor process, which initially required the use of separate cameras for each color. This process evolved over time, leading to more advanced color systems that could be captured using a single camera. In the 1940s and 1950s, innovations in camera technology allowed for the development of wide-screen formats like CinemaScope and VistaVision, which provided a more immersive viewing experience. The 1960s and 1970s saw the rise of handheld cameras and the use of natural lighting, contributing to a more realistic and gritty visual style in films like "Bonnie and Clyde" and "The Godfather." The advent of digital technology in the late 20th century revolutionized cinematography. Digital cameras provided filmmakers with greater control over the image, allowing for easier manipulation in post-production. This also led to the development of high-definition formats and 3D technology. Today, cinematography continues to evolve with advancements in technology, such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and the rise of streaming platforms that have altered the way films are produced, distributed, and consumed. The future of cinematography will likely involve further integration of technology and innovative storytelling techniques to create even more immersive and engaging experiences for audiences.

Just a few random facts I learned researching the history on my own time: The pictures of the horse were taken by setting up strings along the path the horse would take. Every time a string snapped, a picture was taken. Some guy was filming a street when a bus pulls up. His camera breaks suddenly and he quickly fixes it and continues filming. Going over the film later, he was astonished to see the bus turn into a hearse, which had pulled up while he was fixing his camera. I don’t remember these super well so it’s probably worth a google for a clearer picture.

@orion8113 Жыл бұрын

yep, that's right ! About the last fun fact, this guy was George Meliès, a french magician and director, he discovered cinema thanks to the Lumière brothers and became very interested in it. Just like you said, the incident of filming the bus is the one that made him think of movie tricks. (he might have invented this anecdote but it's still quite fun) and he really is the one thanks to whom we now have film tricks in our movies

After few minutes you came to the east then you stopped at japan. Please, make other video where you can explain the emerging of the cinema in the middle east, south asia, etc., I am from India. In west film evolved through the photography. But, when it comes to india evolved through rituals and traditional perfomance art like theatre(Drama).

Hopefully young people like us will find a way to bring people back into movie theaters and build that relationship we once had as kids when we heard a new movie was coming out, even if we start a whole war with the streaming companies. until then lets figures out ways to go around them even though its easier to go through them!! would love to hear the opinions of everyone on how we can do that!! and create a whole new wave and be part of film history :)
