Well, they’re not really “magic.” Maybe “illusion” is a better way to say it. As we begin this journey of the history of cinema, we need to understand how movies trick our brains into even understanding that a movie is a movie. In this episode of Crash Course Film History, Craig takes us down the road of the very first inventors of motion pictures.

You guys FORGOT Louis LePrince!!!! He did what Thomas Edison did YEARS before him and Thomas Edison took the idea!
This didnt even feel like 9 minutes. Why can't all educational video be this way??
Thomas Edison is a charlatan. Louis Le Prince invented the first motion picture camera.
Louis le Prince invented the first motion picture machine years before Edison, he “mysteriously” disappeared before he could procure a patent in America.

So excited! Just found the film history videos! I love crash course!

Peter Roget's work was published in 1824, Jan Evangelista Purkyne published his work on persistence of vision in 1819, making him one, if not the first person to scientically explain the phenomenon.
