Half of all American films made before 1950 and over 90% of films made before 1929 are lost forever. Mostly, because the tape material they’ve used back then was extremely flammable, and many films were lost in fires. I'm glad we live in a digitalized world.
Great explanations and examples! What was the process for combining different elements back then? Double exposing the film itself or reshooting the combined elements? And / or other techniques?
Thank you for making this video!
You are so welcome!
Great video. Informative, straight to the point, and answered the question I had :)!
Thank you! Glad you liked it!
Imagine making a 45 minute movie and then it gets ruined in processing the tape 😂

This film seems to be authentic and I like it. But, were movie films put together that early in time?
Yes, the first movie was made in 1888. They've been around for a very long time.
Is that BTK?
Haha, no! It's Jack Nicholson
