In this episode, we’ll take things to the next level. I'm talking about the short history of the movies!

Did you know even before photography, there were toys that created the illusion of motion by rapidly displaying a series of drawings?

And then, in 1834, William George Horner applied the same principle to create an early form of a motion picture projector called a zoetrope.Then came Eadweard Muybridge who stunned a crowd of reporters in June 1878 by capturing every stage of a horse's gallop as it sped across a track.

This was before the rise of Hollywood and even the earliest silent movies.
In 1891, the inventor Thomas Edison, together with William Dickson came out with what they called the kinetoscope, a device that would become the predecessor to the motion picture projector.

But it was the Lumière brothers who coined the word "cinema" in the 1890s. Their invention, the cinématographe, would go down in history as the first viable film camera.
In the same year, Le Coucher de La Mariée was shot.
This was one of the first erotic films and of course, it had to be French!

Méliès’ movie "A Trip to the Moon" (Le Voyage dans la Lune) which was released in 1902 is regarded as the first true science-fiction film. It was also the first movie that had color. 
Now, it is not possible to tell the whole story in every detail, but the journey from the kinetoscope to CGI technology has been an existing one.
So did this series, where I talked about many technological achievements and their marvelous effects on our lives.
