Lecture 4

So this week's lecture was basically about the history and time line of films. From the first narrative film to vibrators. Lol.. I'm serious, look into the lecture notes on Learning@griffith. Anyways, I got lost from lecture.. it was too much information for me.. Um.. yeah. I'm not that great in backtracking or remember either. =P

I know for a fact that the first narratives films didnt really need a time limit. Most films back then can go for long periods of time in filming, for example a silent film can go up to four to five hours, and yeah they would create pilot episodes also.
Josh talked about the first American narrative film, came out in 1903. He also mention 'Nickelodeons' not the cartoon/family entertainment you know on payTV. It was known as actual theaters, real movie theaters. So yeah pretty cool. These things stayed up real late too..Found image Here. Through Google of course. LolFrom what I can gather from this lecture was pretty much the history about everything..from film narratives to movies and now Youtube. Lol.. good times..
Pretty interesting lecture.. so yeah.. that's all from me..

Thanks for reading ^^..
