Wow very professional, interesting, and informative! I loved this video and I'm shocked by the quality of it and how many subscribers you have! You definitely deserve more.
The whole reason I watched this is because of a new found appreciation for editing and filmmaking. At the end, you have given us a “cliffhanger” question that will probably come up again in the regulation of filmmaking. This video was fun to watch! Thank you!
Edit: 3 of the release dates shown in the video are incorrect. Here are the correct dates for those films: Terminator 2: 1991 Saving Private Ryan: 1998 The Matrix: 1999
In addition to typos in the titles also these dates are incorrect: Singin' In the Rain (1952, not 1941) The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956, not 1960) Gone With the Wind (1939, not 1962) Pierrot le Fou (1965, not 1957) Die Hard (1988, not 1986) Nice video nonetheless! (:
The history of cinematography dates back to the late 19th century and has evolved significantly over the years. It all began with the invention of the first motion picture camera, the Kinétoscope, by William Kennedy Dickson in 1891, while he was working for Thomas Edison. This device projected images onto a screen, marking the beginning of the cinematography era. In 1895, the Lumière brothers, Auguste and Louis, invented the Cinématographe, a device that could both record and project motion pictures. This innovation led to the first public screening of a motion picture, which took place on December 28, 1895, in Paris. Early cinematography primarily focused on capturing short, simple scenes, known as actualities. These included events like sporting competitions, parades, and natural disasters. As the technology advanced, filmmakers began experimenting with narrative storytelling, leading to the creation of the first narrative film, "The Story of the Kelly Gang" in 1906. The 1910s saw the introduction of new techniques like close-ups, cross-cutting, and camera movement, which allowed filmmakers to tell more engaging and emotionally impactful stories. This era also marked the transition from silent films to talkies with the release of "The Jazz Singer" in 1927. Color cinematography was introduced in the early 1930s with the Technicolor process, which initially required the use of separate cameras for each color. This process evolved over time, leading to more advanced color systems that could be captured using a single camera. In the 1940s and 1950s, innovations in camera technology allowed for the development of wide-screen formats like CinemaScope and VistaVision, which provided a more immersive viewing experience. The 1960s and 1970s saw the rise of handheld cameras and the use of natural lighting, contributing to a more realistic and gritty visual style in films like "Bonnie and Clyde" and "The Godfather." The advent of digital technology in the late 20th century revolutionized cinematography. Digital cameras provided filmmakers with greater control over the image, allowing for easier manipulation in post-production. This also led to the development of high-definition formats and 3D technology. Today, cinematography continues to evolve with advancements in technology, such as virtual reality, augmented reality, and the rise of streaming platforms that have altered the way films are produced, distributed, and consumed. The future of cinematography will likely involve further integration of technology and innovative storytelling techniques to create even more immersive and engaging experiences for audiences.
As a master of film studies, I must admit that this is a great summary of knowledge about cinema. Great editing, music and conclusion. I came here by accident while practicing my English. I feel touched and I will stay longer. Greetings from Poland (we also have important film pioneers who worked on our own cinematograph and color film even before America - Kazimierz Prószyński, Piotr Lebiedziński and Bolesław Matuszewski). :)
Mate, I'm also a massive fan of film. And love the video production process start to finish, with all my drive into growing further like the heroes. Can I just say for a video dense, and thorough on the topic of cinema, you nailed it. And to be just a few years into making TH-cam videos... Excellent job mate. Be hyped for that.
Just a few random facts I learned researching the history on my own time: The pictures of the horse were taken by setting up strings along the path the horse would take. Every time a string snapped, a picture was taken. Some guy was filming a street when a bus pulls up. His camera breaks suddenly and he quickly fixes it and continues filming. Going over the film later, he was astonished to see the bus turn into a hearse, which had pulled up while he was fixing his camera. I don’t remember these super well so it’s probably worth a google for a clearer picture.
yep, that's right ! About the last fun fact, this guy was George Meliès, a french magician and director, he discovered cinema thanks to the Lumière brothers and became very interested in it. Just like you said, the incident of filming the bus is the one that made him think of movie tricks. (he might have invented this anecdote but it's still quite fun) and he really is the one thanks to whom we now have film tricks in our movies
@@orion8113 Although that particular trick was already used in The Execution of Mary Queen of Scots, but it is likely he did not know of that film and invented it on his own, he just wasn't the first.

Thanks for this video! Four years on and I'm still going to use it as an introduction to film history for my students due to such excellent production quality. Also scary but insightful food for throught at the end there!
Kubrick had already established himself as a director of note before the New Hollywood Movement. With PATHS OF GLORY in 1957 and SPARTACUS IN 1960, he’s a bit too old and experienced to be lumped in with Spielberg and Lucas.
Beautifully Linked Together. Really, really, erudite choices of what leave in and what to drill down into, later. I hope this doesn't disappoint you, but I was doing chores, so couldn't use the screen. This means It was your writing and narration that carried the show. This is a victory. More, please, when you're happy with it.

I do believe that 'The Horse in Motion' may have been the first proper film or short film, but before that in 1874 their was Jules Janssen's 'Passage De Venus', which was a series of photographs that depict the transit of the planet Venus across the sun on the 9th of December 1874, and what i believe to be the first experience the world had with anything even remotely close to film.
Fantastic video, it has all the info I've been looking for and more, presented in a clean and professional way. I was hooked from start to finish, thank you!
[Modern Day Block Booking] - was already thinking about this before actually seeing your video, pretty sad if you think about it but things will change. Hopefully young people like us will find a way to bring people back into movie theaters and build that relationship we once had as kids when we heard a new movie was coming out, even if we start a whole war with the streaming companies. until then lets figures out ways to go around them even though its easier to go through them!! would love to hear the opinions of everyone on how we can do that!! and create a whole new wave and be part of film history :)
Perfect video! Im studying for my finals and this is exactly what I need. Is there a way I could download the full transcript? It would be better for studying hehe:)

This is really amazing. I was simply dissecting history of cinemas. Then I gotta see this. You were explaining the history of the cinema at only emerging of cinemas in west. After few minutes you came to the east then you stopped at japan. Please, make other video where you can explain the emerging of the cinema in the middle east, south asia, etc., I am from India. In west film evolved through the photography. But, when it comes to india evolved through rituals and traditional perfomance art like theatre(Drama). Please, make other video where you can explain evolution of cinema in middle east, south asia, south america, etc,
One note: Saul Bass designed the shower scene in Psycho so Hitch often, and erroneously, gets lumped in with Montage crowd. Hitchcock was primarily a Mise-en-scène kinda guy. Everything is about the frame.
The Jazz Singer was, to my knowledge, the THIRD motion picture to incorporate synchronized sound. (First one was from France, by the same guys who made the first full colour movie (Pathe Brothers)
One thing that I think changed the face of cinema in a big way, was the arrival of Digital Grading, which i think (but not sure) arrived with Fellowship of The Ring. Its unfortunately made many a movie way too dark....or even just blue....sometimes just blue and yellow.
17:40 and E.T. The 80s and 90s were at the peak of puppetry and animatronics technology. Jurassic Park is another cinematic gem worth nothing. The dinosaurs look so damn real.
The end gave me chills
Goosebumps throughout the video. One day I'll be part of the cinema world.
