early films

blog question: What qualities do these early films share? Why do you think the filmmakers shot these? How do they differ from modern movies?

These early films all have people in them; either a man and/or woman are shown, or there is a group of men and women. I think filmmakers shot these to show how different crows of people would react on camera. They wanted to show the audience that there are different ways to film people and their actions. Compared to these films, modern movies have a plot line; beginning, middle, and end. These films however show one action at time without really a plot or purpose.
