History Of Movie Making

• The history of film began in the late 1880s with the invention of the first movie camera.  

• Motion pictures were initially exhibited as a carnival novelty and developed to one of the most important tools of communication and entertainment, and mass media in the 20th century and into the 21st century.

• Most films before 1930 were silent. Motion picture films have substantially affected the arts, technology, and politics.

• The movie theatre was considered a cheaper, simpler way to provide entertainment to the masses. 

• Movies became the most popular visual art form of the late Victorian age. 

• It was simpler because before the cinema people would have to travel long distances to see major dioramas or amusement parks. 

• With the advent of the cinema this changed.

• During the first decade of the cinema's existence, inventors worked to improve the machines for making and showing films.
