Brief History and Technology of Early Film

The Magic Lantern is an early type of image projector.
Uses photographs or images painted on glass .Was able to show slight motion during the slide
show.Cameras could be built on top of each other to
show motion. Leavers were also made on the machine to
allow the user to give motion to the picture showing.

How it Worked?
Lens Tube
Reflector
Lamp
Slide
The lamp is the source of illumination.
The reflector reflects light from the lamp onto a condensing lens which focuses light on the slide being shown.
The lens tube magnifies the illuminated slide onto a darkened wall.

The Praxinoscope was an animation device.It used strips of pictures placed around the
inner surface of a spinning cylinder.An inner cylinder of mirrors was placed
inside this producing the illusion of motion from the strips pictures.

Designed by Thomas Edison in 1888.It was designed for films to be viewed
individually through the window of a cabinet .It created the illusion of movement by rapidly
passing a film between a lens and an electric light blub.
The viewer looked through a peep hole where a spinning wheel would show 46 frames per second.
