The Horse in Motion
This was the first film to ever be made back in 1878 by Eadweard Muybridge only to win a $25,000 bet on prooving that horses flew, well he had won that bet rediculous how it sounds. -

The history of film
This is the history which had brought movies and television into our world. -
The Lumiere brothers
Around this time these two brothers were the first ones to create cinematographe. The first cinematographic film they made was a comedic short called 'L' Arroseur arrose' (The waterer watered). -
The great train robbery
In 1903 Edwin S. Porter directed the Great train robbery which was about 10 minutes long. I know that dosn't sound like a long time but back then that was pretty long. -
the Nickelodeon era
In 1905 came Nickelodeons, now I know when you think Nickoleon you probably think of cartoons like Hey Arnold or Sponebob Squarepants. But the name came from the fact that movies back then used to cost only 5 cent which sounds like a good deal to me. -
World War 1
World War 1 helped film makers at the time because it lead them to make documenturies about the war. -
The rise of Hollywood
In the 1920's the film industry began to grow into a cultural phanomenon and moved to California because of better film location which gave birth to Hollywood. -
The golden age
In the 1930's the film age grew much bigger in Hollywood due to the fact that film had sound now (they were known as talkies) and they had different kinds of movies like gangster, musicals, western and horror. -
World War 2
Hollywood had a big role during the war. They made movies about the war which was a big switch from their bright campy style. A good example would be Disney who made many cartoon shrots having to do with the war. -
Casablanca
Casablaca was one of the gretest movies ever made right after World War 2. It was a romantic movie about to lovers with a dillusioned night club owner and his former lover. The film won awards for best picture, best director and best screenplay. -
Drive in theatre
The 1950's was the birth for a lot of things like rock and roll, fast food and Fonzie. But one thing that came was drive in theatres which let people watch a film without leaving their car. In fact it still goes on today and I have to admit its pretty fun. -
Vietnam
The vietnam war was a big war that lasted a little over a decade and film makers made films that had to do with nothing but war and violence. -
Special effects
The new millenium had just came in and this is when special effects were used in all movies to try and make them seem more realistic.
