Содержание слайда: Can you imagine life without films or television, cinema's little sister? Today we can watch television 24 hours a day, we can go to the cinema or put a cassette into our video when we want. We can even make video films ourselves. Can you imagine life without films or television, cinema's little sister? Today we can watch television 24 hours a day, we can go to the cinema or put a cassette into our video when we want. We can even make video films ourselves. But imagine the surprise and the shock that people felt when they saw the first films in 1895! There was no sound, no color and the films were very short: they lasted from 60 to 90 seconds! Besides, they did not tell a story. They were glimpses of real life: a military parade, a running horse, a boxing match, the ocean... One of the first films showed a train coming towards the camera. The audience panicked and ran away! The frightened people were sure that the train was coming into the theatre. The early films were shown in music halls, theatres, cafes and even shops. Travelling projectiоnists brought the films to smaller cities and country towns.

Содержание слайда: Many people contributed to the invention of the cinema — the brothers Louis Jean and Auguste Lumiere in France; Thomas Alva Edison in the United States; William Friese-Creene and Robert W. Paul in Great Britain. As a result, several different types of motion-picture cameras and projectors appeared in the mid-1890s.The French Lumiere brothers were the first to show a film in public. It happened on December 28, 1895 in the basement of a Paris cafe. During 1896 the Lumieres made more than 40 films! They showed everyday French life: the arrival of a train, a game of cards, the activity of a street life... The Lumieres also made the first newsreel, a film of the French Photographic Society Conference, and the first comedy shot.

Содержание слайда: One of the earliest motion-picture machines was Kinetoscope invented by Thomas A. Edison and W. Dickson. It was a cabinet showing unenlarged black-and-white films running about 90 seconds. An individual watched through a peep­hole as the film moved on spools. Kinetoscope parlours opened in several cities. However, they were soon replaced by projection machines that threw greatly enlarged pictures on a screen. These new machines allowed many people to watch one film at the same time. One of the earliest motion-picture machines was Kinetoscope invented by Thomas A. Edison and W. Dickson.

Содержание слайда: IS IT ART? The cinema was the perfect popular entertainment. It was not expensive and, at first, the audience consisted mainly of workers. The rich and intellectual classes ignored it. They didn't think it was art. For example, the London Times wrote about one of the Lumiere brothers' first shows in 1896 and didn't mention the cinema again until 1904!

Содержание слайда: FILMS BEGIN TO TELL STORIES Gradually films became longer and started to tell stories. Edwin S. Porter was one of the first directors who made such a film in 1903. It was The Great Train Robbery, the first Western in the history of the cinema. It told a primitive but dramatic story about bandits holding up a train. Gilbert M. Anderson (Bronco Billy) played in this film, as he said, 'everything but the camera'. He rode a horse. He was a passenger on the train who was killed and he was also the bandit who shot him. This 11-minute film became a sensational hit. Porter's film and the storytelling films that followed made the cinema still more popular. In the United States, 'nickelodeons' began to appear.

Содержание слайда: Nickelodeons' were cinemas where people paid a nickel (5 cents) to see several short films. It was much cheaper than other entertainments and everybody could afford it. Nickelodeons' were cinemas where people paid a nickel (5 cents) to see several short films. It was much cheaper than other entertainments and everybody could afford it. As soon as the films learned to tell stories, they began to film the classics. Silent films had orchestras, organists or pianists. Later, printed titles were invented. The titles gave dialogue, descriptions of action, or commentary.

Содержание слайда: The Western was the only type of early film which was unique to the cinema. People knew comedies, romances, police stories and melodramas from the theatre. But the Western was new, and especially popular with children.

Содержание слайда: SPECIAL EFFECTS Film-makers soon learned how to use special effects. The first known special effect was created in 1895 by Alfred Clark in The Execution of Mary, Queen of Scots. It was a simple trick: the camera was stopped and the actress replaced with a doll. In Europe, special effects were developed by a French film-maker Georges Melies. A professional magician by trade, Melies made a lot of interesting experiments. Between 1896 and 1913 he produced, directed and acted in more than 500 films! Many modern special effects can be traced to the work of this talented man. Unfortunately, most of these films are lost.

Содержание слайда: With special effects films become more exciting, and sometimes more frightening. With special effects films become more exciting, and sometimes more frightening.

Содержание слайда: The world capital of filmed entertainment Los Angeles has been a lot of things over the past 100 years. First, it was a little city with orange forest and great weather. But, one day in 1908 a group of people from Chicago came to Los Angeles to shoot a film. Since that day a lot of directors, producers, actors and thousands of other workers have been coming to Los Angeles. In 1911 the first studio appeared in Hollywood (a part of Los Angeles).

Содержание слайда: Film-makers soon realised that Southern California's climate was perfect for shooting films all the year round. And the area had settings for nearly any film — it had mountains, desert and ocean. Soon nearly all important American studios were in Hollywood and it became the film-making capital of the world. The men who ran Hollywood studios were businessmen and their main aim was to make money. They soon realized that the best way to do this was to standardize their films. When the audience liked a certain kind of film, the studios made many more of exactly the same kind.

Содержание слайда: By the 1920s, 80 percent of world films were produced in Hollywood. Making films is expensive. On the average, it costs 36 million dollars to produce a film. Some of this goes to pay the actors, and large sums can be spent on special effects. Marketing the film to the public may cost another 17 million dollars...

Содержание слайда: HOLLYWOOD.

Содержание слайда: As the industry developed, it created a new phenomenon: the international star. World travel was still slow and difficult in those days, but millions of people in different countries could see the same actors and actresses at the cinema. Their faces, and later their voices, were familiar to people in the countries they never visited.

Содержание слайда: It was an entirely new experience to see a 'star', someone to identify with and love from a distance. All over the world, from Paris to Tokyo, from London to New York, millions of people stood in long queues to see their favourite stars. A famous star could make any film a certain success. So the studios went to great lengths to make their actors into stars. The publicity department gave them an image, and often a name. They dictated the clothes the stars wore, where they lived, what parties they went to... The Soviet flag in Sergey Eisenstein's «Battleship Potemkin» was tinted red. The introduction of colour was less revolutionary than the introduction of sound. The silent film soon disappeared, but the black-and-white films are made even today.

Содержание слайда: By 1916, Charlie Chaplin had what was probably the best-known face in the world, the public transformed him from a star into a mythic figure. Cartoons, poems and comic strips under the Chaplin name appeared in newspapers. Chaplin dolls, toys and boots were manufactured. This little man made the whole world laugh with his films. Like many silent film stars, he didn't succeed in 'talkies'.

Содержание слайда: MARY PICKFORD-«AMERICA’S SWEETHEART» Mary Pickford was one of the early stars of silent cinema. She was also the first female millionaire. "I can't afford to work for only 10,000 dollars a week," she used to say. Thousands of young girls went to Hollywood hoping to become rich and famous like her.

Содержание слайда: The 1930s was the golden era of the Hollywood studio film. It was the decade of the great movie stars — Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Jean Harlow, Mae West, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Cary Grant, Gary Cooper, Clark Gable — and of a new generation of great directors. It was also the time when two new kinds of films — the musical and the gangster film — first appeared on the screen.

Содержание слайда: Greta Garbo was one of the few silent film stars who succeeded in 'talkies'. The two words that appeared on billboards — 'GARBO TALKS' — sold more tickets than any other advertisement in the history of the cinema. 'If you wake up in the morning feeling rotten, If you quarrel with your wife, If the taxes are due, If your kid has the measles, If you lose your job and if the whole world seems black, Remember there is always this consolation: GARBO TALKS!' wrote a Hollywood comedian and the public happily repeated these lines.

Содержание слайда: Marilyn Monroe was a perfect example of a Hollywood studio star. Her great beauty made her a world-famous sex symbol. But in spite of her success in films, Monroe had a tragic life. She died at the age of 36 from an overdose of sleeping pills. Since her death she has become one of the most written-about film stars in history.

Содержание слайда: Today, Hollywood is not what it was. Many studios have moved to other places. The film stars have also moved to areas like Beverly Hills and Malibu. But visitors to Hollywood today can go to the famous Chinese Theatre and see the footprints and autographs of famous film stars. They can go down the Walk of Fame and see the golden stars on the pavement...

Содержание слайда: ART OR RELIGION? The popularity of the cinema led to the first attacks against it. Church leaders condemned the new form. They thought that the cinema would steal souls and lead people away from religion. Indeed, early cinemas looked like temples, and people worshipped their favourite film stars.

Содержание слайда: TALKIES The era of the talking film began in 1927 with the enormous success of Warner Brothers' The Jazz Singer. The film mostly told its story with titles, but it had three songs and a short dialogue. There were long queues in front of the Warner Theatre in New York... The silent film was dead within a year. The first 100% sound film, Lights of New York, appeared in 1928. The first colour films were made in the 1930s. Before that films were usually tinted.

Содержание слайда: According to Derek Malcolm of The Guardian, "Cinema has provided as many great artists over the last 100 years as literature, the theatre, and any of the other arts." The most important aspect of the cinema was that, for the price of a ticket, people could dream for a few hours. The little boy who went to a Saturday matinee in Manchester or Marseilles could imagine he was a courageous cowboy. The mother in Birmingham or Berlin could imagine she was Scarlett O'Hara in the arms of Rhett Butler. Today, no one disputes cinema's place as the 'seventh art'.
