Post Two- Where It All Started

Hello guys, thanks for coming to Carl's Take! Today I will just be giving a text blog, with a youtube video included. I will make a video next time when I actually get my camera set up! Well I wont make you wait any longer! I would like to talk about where motion pictures all began. Now that word motion picture, you do not really here any more. Yet it means just what it says, a moving picture. This theory, as it was in the late 1800's, was put to the test by a man named Eadweard Muybridge. His first try was with a horse and a jockey, the horse was running in a forward motion. It looked real, but slow, too slow. So he clipped his pictures closer together, and then ran it. He ended up with a product that amazed people of this time. He named it The Horse In Motion, and it made public in 1878. Here it is, The Horse In Motion.

This product was truly amazing back then. The next big step in the motion picture business was getting stories together, and the great struggle of capturing audio. I will go over these things in my next post very soon, so please come back for more of Carl's Take. And don't forget to take my survey on the right of the page!
