Eadweard Muybridge  was an English photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion, and early work in motion-picture projection

Muybridge, perhaps best known today for his sequence of photographs of a race horse in motion (which proved for the first time that at top speed all feet leave the ground), studied photography in the early 1860s with daguerrotypist Silas Selleck and later achieved recognition for his photographs of the Yosemite Valley and other scenes of the American Far West. The zoopraxiscope emerged out of his studies of motion as shown in sequences of still photographs. His 11-volume work, Animal Locomotion , published in 1887, contained over 100,000 photographs. In 1893, he lectured at "Zoopraxigraphical Hall" at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago.
Eadweard Muybridge: the father of film The world's first cinema was not a great success. Opened by British photographer Eadweard Muybridge at Chicago's World Columbian Exposition in 1893 it failed to pull in the crowds, bewildered as they were by such an invention. So stung was the only man to have captured moving images that he packed up his Zoopraxiscope, the movie projector he invented to show them, and after 12 miserable months stopped using it altogether.

The zoopraxiscope is an early device for displaying motion pictures. Created by photographic pioneer Eadweard Muybridge in 1879, it may be considered the first movie projector. The zoopraxiscope projected images from rotating glass disks in rapid succession to give the impression of motion.

The zoopraxiscope, along with the zoetrope and the thaumatrope, could be considered forerunners of today's motion display technologies (including the animated GIF and video display technologies such as streaming video ), all of which create an effect of motion by presenting discrete but closely-related images one after the other.

Gertie The Dinosaur-Winsor McKay 1913
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gertie_the_Dinosaur

Gertie the Dinosaur is a 1914 animated short film by American cartoonist and animator Winsor McCay. It is the earliest animated film to feature a dinosaur. McCay first used the film before live audiences as an interactive part of his vaudeville act; the frisky, childlike Gertie did tricks at the command of her master. Gertie was the first film to use animation techniques such as keyframes, registration marks, tracing paper, the Mutoscope action viewer, and animation loops. It influenced the next generation of animators such as the Fleischer brothers, Otto Messmer, Paul Terry, and Walt Disney.

Students will be creating an ID -Identity Map on the back of the document you see to the right...This document is on 11 x 17 paper, and will be printed and given to all AC Pathway students

Tuesday August 4th, 2015....
a. Student will READ and will FILL OUT any questions or directions on the 
ELEMENTS OF ART w/CUBE CREATION by the end of the period (hopefully) and will create an ELEMENTS OF ART CUBE (with paper, scissors, glue, and markers) (hopefully)
Here are the DIRECTIONS/WORKSHEET/ELEMENTS OF ART>>>>>>>
b. Students will read about the COLOR WHEEL and PRIMARY COLORS and will answer any questions and follow any directions...When done ..students will turn into Mr Post & Dylan ALL work completed this week through Tuesday.....Aloha and Thanks for Being A Good Student....

c. On Thursday and `Friday students will create their own ID MAP with paper, markers, pencils, etc as a way of doing old school art and teaching ~Mr Shelor about what kind of person you are,,,more on this later in the week ..stay tuned right here right now..aloha
