An artist would weep at such a revelation. I studied and practiced still life and realism, my teacher was the greatest artist I’ve ever met in person… he always taught us not to capture what we think we see, but what we actually saw even if our brains were urging us not to… To realize that despite your best efforts and talents you still failed to capture a specific, beautiful, interesting feature of your subject would be crushing for a career realist.

I was invited to the premiere of this film when it came out. I got autographs from some of the actors and the director also. It was a grand party. We all got high and merry... This film was a major box office success back then and money was flowing like water. Good times!

The picture used at 1:31 showes a trot, not gallop as the example in Muybridge's picture. In a trot the horse stretches it's feet and all are above the ground. Would be nice to see other examples of painters perception of horse movements that got proven wrong after Muybridge's contributions. Otherwise an interesting video, thanks!

Sorry just the part about being ‘not guilty and not mad’ after the murder ..... can someone explain? Doesn’t that mean he was right to perform the murder?

@sandwich2473 3 жыл бұрын

There's a thing in court where people will say that the suspected criminal is not guilty if they don't believe that the crime was done, but some will also say not guilty if they don't believe that the crime should be punished. There's lots of reasons why some don't believe that a crime should be punished, from the person being famous, to the crime being understandable. To get around this, I think there are a few who give a really light sentence instead - like what happened with Gary Plauché. One of the points that people are either executed, or put away for a long time is to remove them from society to keep the public safe. I imagine that for the case of Muybridge, people thought that he either didn't do it, or he wasn't at risk of doing it again.

@@sandwich2473 The whole temporary insanity of catching your sponse in the act of infidelity and killing one or two people had some sort of judicial term. Also the act of being drunk and killing someone with a car was considered to be manslaughter and excusable if the person paid the victims. BUT I think it had more to do with who committed the crime. Rich white male like Howard Hughes (manslaughter - drunken driving) and this person who advance technology for cinema. If his patents were available to people to reproduce and privately develop would he had been sentenced? I think Muybridge was guilty and there wasn't the in the moment temporary insanity. I think it ws a vengful, retailitory, hate crime against his abandoned wife.

@charityquill4965 Жыл бұрын

probably the first "live action" one at least. I know there were lots of contraptions like zoetropes invented in 1834, which were comprised of illustrations. they did not use film or photography though. this all I guess would depend on one's specific definition of a "movie"

@DanielSaner 6 ай бұрын

Yes, it's always a matter of definition with these things. One major reason why a lot of people don't consider these the first true motion pictures is that they weren't recorded in a single camera, but a separate camera for each frame. So a more common answer is Le Prince's work from around 1887. He used one camera, first with one lens per recorded frame, later a "proper" single-lens camera.

Of course, something of historical importance was left out of this video. Muybridge was abused and destroyed by the money man Leland Stanford, just as other great inventors were: Nicola Tesla, Herman Hollerith, and George Ritchey, for example.

In its ignorance of a horse's gait, this video has made a mess of what in its day, was an easy to understand conundrum. Prior to this, artists/people assumed at canter and gallop the front legs stretched forward and the back legs stretched out behind the horse. These motion studies showed that not to be the case. Just look at the change in paintings prior to this period and after this discovery. The position of the legs in the trot was also in question; but should not be confused with the canter, as you have done here where you speak of the trot, yet show his pictures of a horse in the canter. In the age of Google, there really is no excuse for a person making an informative video to actually do their homework. It smacks of laziness that someone would not actually study the problems Eadweard Muybridge was attempting to solve, before making a video on the subject. To do justice to him, you needed to understand how horses actually move, and how they were, at the time; perceived to move. In this you failed. Something to improve upon? You also failed to mention the significance of the stagecoach accident he survived. It had a dramatic effect on the remainder of his life. It was the basis of his murder defence, yet you seemed to make light of this fact. He suffered an injury that today, is still largely untreatable. Such damage to the brain can result in marked changes to the focus and personality of a person. He is reported to have changed from a dapper gentleman, to more of a scruffy, driven individual. Perhaps, were it not for his accident, his interest in photography would not have led him down the same path? Otherwise, a reasonable, short history, that may lead others to seek a fuller version of his story and contributions to cinema. Thanks.
