8 Innovations in Photography



Why do you think we wouldn't have filmmaking without the invention of photography? Pick three of these innovations on this list and explain their historical importance and why you think it led to the invention of motion pictures.

We would not have filmmaking without the invention of photography because without being able to capture a still moment in time, we would not be able to capture a moving moment in time. The Camera Obscura was not exactly a frozen moment in time but this was the starter for the creation of the cameras that come after this. The Daguerreotype was evidence of lots of progress in cameras. It was able to capture a frozen moment in time rather than have a live view of the subject. Flexible roll film made photography become extremely popular and accessible to the public and I think this was a huge component to the invention of motion pictures.
