  1. History of Video Technology and Photography Created by: Zack Moore

  2. Origins • Chinese and Greek philosophers describe principles of cameras and optics. This took place in the 1500’s.

  3. Important Discovery • In 1727, Johann Schulze discovered that silver nitrate became darker in light.

  4. Early Photos • In 1816, Joseph Niepce took the first photographic picture with camera obscura. Unfortunately, the photo faded quickly, and took eight hours to develop. • In 1826, Niepce makes a permanent picture. • In 1837, Louis Daguerre invents the daguerreotype process, which took under thirty minutes to develop, and didn’t fade.

  5. Early Cameras • The first camera was made on January 10, 1839, and was wooden. • In 1851, Fredrick Scott Archer invented the Collodion Method, which required only two or three second of light exposure to fully develop. • In 1871, Richard Leach Maddox proposes the use of a paste of gelatin and silver bromide on a glass plate, which was called the "dry plate" process. • Seven years later, Dry Plates are commercially manufactured.

  6. Filming History • In 1888, Eastman patents the Kodak camera that used a 20 foot long piece of paper, which could print 100 2.5 inch circular pictures. • A year later, the camera used a roll of film instead of paper. • In 1895, The Lumiere brothers presented the first motion picture • In 1900, the Lumiere brothers sell their camera patent to Pathe. • The first mass production camera, the Brownie, is released in 1900.

  7. A New Age • In 1907, the Lumiere brothers manufactured the first commercial color film, the Autochrome plates. • In 1919, the first filming school, The Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography, is opened. • In 1956, The Ampex Corporation made the first video tape recorder, called the Ampex VXR-1000. • In 1975, Sony released the first consumer video cassette recorder, called the Betamax. • In 1995, Sony released the DCR-VX1000, which was the first digital video camcorder.

  8. Video Cameras in the Present • In 1997, shareyourworld.com was created by Chase Norlin, which allowed users to upload and share videos to a universal website, which opened a new window for sharing video production. • In 2000, Sony's new HDW-F900 Camcorder with digital 24-frame progressive high definition technology was used to shoot Star Wars: Episode II.
