| Emile Cohl - Fantasmagorie 1908 |
 |
Émile Cohl created Fantasmagorie in 1908.
To make this film, Cohl placed each drawing
on an illuminated glass plate and then traced
the next drawing-with variations-on top of it
until he had some 700 drawings. In 1908,
chalkboard caricaturists were common
vaudeville attractions and the characters in
the film look as though they've been drawn on
a chalkboard, but it's an illusion. By
filming black lines on paper and then
printing in negative Cohl makes his
animations appear to be chalk drawings.

| U.S. Child Labor, 1908-1920 |
 |
A look at child labor in the early 20th
century in the United States as represented
through the photography of Lewis W. Hine.
The film documents the use of child labor in
industry, including the exploitation of
children and the lower classes in American
society. Many of the jobs were extremely
dangerous and numerous children and adults
were injured or killed in the attempt to
advance in society. The viewer must
understand the context of the situation at
the time and think of the individuals from
the perspective that it could be one of their
ancestors, in order to fully grasp the
emotion of the video.

| Tunguska Explosion 30 July 1908 |
 |
At 7:17 AM on the morning of June 30, 1908, a
mysterious explosion occurred in the skies
over Siberia. It was caused by the impact and
breakup of a large meteorite, at an altitude
roughly six kilometers in the atmosphere.
Realistic pictures of the event are
unavailable. However, Russian scientists
collected eyewitness accounts of the event. I
believe that we now know enough about large
impacts to "decode" the subjective
descriptions of the witnesses and create
realistic views of this historic asteroid
impact as seen from different distances.

| DW GRIFFITH THE ADVENTURES OF DOLLIE 1908 |
 |
DW GRIFFITH BY IRA GALLEN
It was an era that laid the foundation upon
which was built the Golden Age of Cinema; an
era whose development and advancement of the
moving picture as an art form was
inextricably tied to one man's creative and
innovative genius.
The man's name is D. W. Griffith--David Wark
Griffith--and his story is that of the period
between 1908 and 1913 when he created a
method of storytelling in purely cinematic
terms that was to raise the moving picture
permanently out of the category of a
scientific curiosity.
This he did by the use of techniques that
broke precedents and created a vocabulary of
visual devices for the emergence of film as
art as well as by the development of a stock
company of actors and actresses with him at
the American Mutuscope and Biograph Company
in New York, who would later emerge as some
of the greatest individual talents during the
glory years of the Golden Age
David Wark Griffith's film creation, THE
BIRTH OF A NATION, was to make history and
achieve immortality when released in 1914.
With THE BIRTH, Griffith was to bring
together the words "art" and "film" as a
permanent equation for the first time. Only
five years after his initial explorations
into the then crude world of moving picture
images, his epic, THE BIRTH, was both an
historical creation as well as a history
making event in its own right.
The American artist, whom the world would
come to recognize simply as D.W. Griffith,
became as much a household name as any of his
creations on film, and for him the status of
"genius" was to be given; a father figure in
the birth of film art. To describe "genius"
in finite terms as it applies to the methods
of D.W. Griffith is to seek after that which
is beyond precise definition. He felt
degraded by motion pictures and therefore
sought to raise the level of the medium by
breaking all of the conventions and existing
practices of filmmaking as they then existed.
Despite the overwhelming importance of D.W.
Griffith to the development of cinema art;
his name, his work and the work of those who
helped him create his moving pictures have
become a generally unknown commodity amongst
the American public.
