Crash Course Film History #1: Movies Are Magic

Curated by ACT

This video focuses on how early movies were made using the phi phenomenon, an illusion of motion created when still pictures were viewed quickly. The history of still pictures began with the camera obscura, Daguerreotype, Eastman's photos on paper, and then moved to stills in succession to create moving pictures. [9:43]
