The first ‘moving pictures’• The principle of the camera obscura can be demonstrated
with a rudimentary type, just a box with a hole in one side. Light from only one part of a scene will pass through the hole and strike a specific part of the back wall.
• Camera = Latin for “room”Obscura = Latin for “dark”
• The earliest mention of this type of device was by the Chinese philosopher Mo-Ti (5th century BC).

Moving Photographs• Eadweard Muybridge (April 9, 1830 – May 8, 1904) was an English-
born photographer, known primarily for his early use of multiple cameras to capture motion, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion
pictures that pre-dated celluloid film strip still used today.

The development of Cinema• The Nickelodeon was an early 20th century form of small,
neighborhood movie theaters in the United States in which admission was obtained for a nickel. By 1907, one estimate (based on basic business economics) was that an average of over two million people attended the nickelodeons daily. The popularity of these affordable, entertaining, and highly profitable venues was such that their numbers mushroomed to approximately 8,000 in the U.S. by 1908.

The DVD
• DVD (commonly known as "Digital Versatile Disc" or "Digital Video Disc") is an optical disc storage media format that can be used for data storage, including movies with high video and sound quality. DVDs resemble Compact Discs as their diameter is the same (120 mm or 4.72 inches, or occasionally 80 mm or 3.15 inches), but they are encoded in a different format and at a much higher density.
