fun fact: louis le prince invented the motion picture camera. Edison had him "mysteriously disappear" on a train (which was on the way to premiere his work)

Edison was undoubtedly important, influential and innovative. But again, no mention of Louis Le Prince - the man who actually did develop the first successful single-lens camera in 1888 when he shot Roundhay Garden Scene. Le Prince was in with Muybridge experimenting with motion pictures back in Leeds in the 1870s and 1880s. There were indications Le Prince even had the intention to show his film to audiences in America, but it's difficult to conclude if this was for entertainment or (more likely) scientific purposes. But he seems to have been wiped from film history, for some reason. It all gets boiled down to "Edison, Dickson and some experimental guys before him"

If anyone's interested in the clip of the lady dancing in at 3:01, her name was Loïe Fuller and there was a biopic recently made about her called La Danseuse by Stéphanie Di Giusto. It's a gorgeous film, worth checking out.

Yes, Thomas Edison was a brilliant inventor, but can CrashCourse please acknowledge that despite several great accomplishments: Edison actively stole ideas or screwed over several of his assistants out of pay? Or if he was faced with competition, rather than try to devise a better product he attempted to sabotage competition?

"You probably know of Thomas Alva Edison as the inventor of the light bulb, or the phonograph..." No, I know him as a liar and a cheater and practically a thief, but not as an inventor, and I'm glad you gave us the real story behind something that he would otherwise have us think was something he did.

Louis Le Prince is the real inventor, the only problem is, his patents registered in France and Britain were not considered international patients as he did not demonstrate to the Public of his device, he of course planned to go the US and demostrate his camera, taking along him all the papers involving of his patent working Camera in which it along with him disappeared never to be seen again. While the Camera didn't disappear since he was not taking the camera with him when he disappeared, legally by law his wife couldn't be allowed to demonstrate his product until after a certain period of time, but by then Thomas Edison had demonstrated his camera to the world.

Thomas Edison & William Dickson-Kinetograph and Kinetoscope- first motion camera and the device that allowed them to watch movies Dickson also added the holes needed to stop the film at intervals sprocket holes Etienne-Jules Marey- Helped Edison make the kinetograph Cellulite filmstrips covered in light-sensitive emulsion George Eastman- entrepreneur helped produce filmstrips A film studio was made and it had a sunroof and a revolving thingy to adhere to where the sun was throughout the day Kinetograph issues- (films were only 15 sec long) it was static Needed the sun to shine Kinetoscope was one person at a time which limited customers No editing

I have a question. You said that the most famous performers on the vaudeville circuit were not accessible to most people because they only played major cities. However I imagine that the kinetoscope exhibitions would have only been available to people who lived in cities as well. I understand that kinetoscope exhibitions would have made entertainment accessible to more people because the specific performer didn't need to be in a specific location for someone to see his or her work. But I don't how the same people who went to kinetoscope exhibitions would not be able to go a show on the vaudeville circuit. Can you elaborate on the reasons that the kinetoscope exhibitions made vaudeville performances more accessible?
