MOVING IMAGE

Who invented the movie image? What year was moving image created? • Modern motion picture making began with the invention of the motion picture camera. French brothers Auguste and Louis Lumière are often credited with inventing the first motion picture camera, although others had developed similar inventions at around the same time. What the Lumières invented was special, however. It combined a portable motionpicture camera, film processing unit, and a projector called the Cinematographe. It was basically a device with three functions in one. • Thomas Alva Edison invented the phonograph in 1877, and it quickly became the most popular home-entertainment device of the century. Seeking to provide a visual accompaniment to the phonograph, Edison commissioned Dickson, a young laboratory assistant, to invent a motionpicture camera in 1888.

Which was the first moving image film? • A frame from Roundhay Garden Scene, the world's earliest surviving film produced using a motion picture camera, by Louis Le Prince, 1888. The Berlin Wintergarten theatre was the site of the first cinema ever, with a short film presented by the Skladanowsky brothers on 1 November 1895.
