This man singlehandedly invented what we call Cinema. The theatrical experience and magic of motion pictures. The editing, the cuts, the effects, the story telling... absolutely everything and all of the motion picture craft & art. One man with a 35mm film handcrank camera and a studio that uses Sunlight. The most impressive baby-steps any human invention ever had. We owe this man so much.

One fantastic short gag that hasn't aged a bit: You can tell it's old, but it's still funny, and the pacing is dead-on. Georges Melies started as a stage magician, and his concept of film was to use it for magic tricks impossible in the real world. This continues to work in a way that the more drawn-out "Voyage to the Moon" doesn't.

@geoffreylogsdon162

9 ай бұрын

There wasn't a state of the art! Most people were just grasping the idea of moving images. They would go to theaters just to see film of cityscapes, people bustling around, etc. Melies 'got it' right away. He was doing this, and A Trip To The Moon, before anyone else even got a handle on this new invention. HE was the guy who showed that film had the unlimited possibility of artistic expression. He was making films with rudimentary storylines, not to mention science fiction, way before anyone else. I thank the universe that for all the ancient films that have been lost, somehow some of his work survived. And also Winsor McKay's pioneering animation with Gertie The Dinosaur.

It’s interesting how you can just tell by this film that a radically different new era was about to begin.

Thanks Thomas, I try to replicate the music that would have been heard in that era and there were plenty of banjos about! I was very surprised to find out that there were some instances of nylon strung guitars being used as I thought it would be too quiet, but then again purpose-built cinemas hadn't really been built, so it was likely that these films would have appeared in much smaller venues, sometimes even tents or church halls, as side shows to magic acts (incidentally Melies was a magician too!) or variety acts. Do check out tldpicturehouse's other content!

He was also a magician. Hence, his penchant for slight of camera. Being a magician gave him the mind set of editing for magic. learned trick photography very quickly. Pretty sure the first to do MANY things.

Movies from '90 were the best.

I love JJ Abrams work.

The beginnings of the cinema were viewed with "suspicion" at the time; the invited press did not attend the opening of the first cinema in 1897, which is why there are no newspaper articles from that historic day and only a few were even interested in it. 😑 It was new "junk" that would quickly disappear again anyway (we can see where this "junk" has led in the meantime [but it takes quite a long time to disappear 😉]). 😄

Be sure to watch A Trip To The Moon which thankfully does exist, and has been painstakingly restored to the best possible quality. There is even a version in *color*, because Melies hand-tinted every single frame. From this if you want to go into animation check out Gertie The Dinosaur from 1902 by WInsor McCay (yes the Little Nemo guy)...and he also pioneered the combination of animation and live action. Then if you are hooked at this point jump ahead to about 1920 and watch every film ever made by Buster Keaton, especially The General. Even by modern standards possibly the greatest film ever made.
