Photography And Special Effects In Early Films

In the film there are aspects that recall practices of early photography. In the beginning the men are posed and have hats (props) as they would if they were taking a photograph. They even have a background. The difference between a photographic camera and a film camera is that a photographic camera freezes a specific moment and only last for a couple of seconds while a film camera can document moving images and can last as long as you are filming. But both the photographic camera and film camera can tell a story through their images.
