Watch this interesting video telling you how moving pictures or movies came into being.
The story of the movies begins in the 1870s with Edward Muybridge.
He was one of the pioneers of photography and you could even say he is the father of the moving image.
He met a man named Leland Stanford who was occupied with a popular question of the day- Is there a moment when all four feet of a horse are in the air during a gallop?
Leland asked Muybridge to settle the debate once and for all.
In order to do this Muybridge set up 12 cameras along the edge of a racetrack. Then he attached string across the track that would trigger the shutters on the cameras when the horse touched them.
He took the 12 images from the racetrack and copied the silhouettes onto a disc. These images or frames could be viewed in succession on a machine that he had invented called the Zoopraxiscope that made it seem like the images themselves were moving.
It is considered the stepping stone to motion pictures as we know it.
