  Sergei Eisenstein   “The father of montage” often “the father of editing too as is represented in his political film “battleship Potemkin”. The montage was one of the first ways of catching emotion within a films character, other ways were used such as “Nanook of the north” by Robert Flaherty, however montage has carried on throughout all kinds of genres.    The famous scene in battleship Potemkin where the citizens were running for there lives down the steps was a masterclass in montage, it was the first time one scenes times had been extended through editing by a series of linked images. Unfortunately, this movie was band in Russia for political reasons but the film continued to be studied in many film schools and is the reason for montage and some of the editing today.

  LUMIERE BROTHERS are also regarded as “the fathers of documentaries” more specifically,  the brothers invented the idea of paying to go to cinema, many artists were making films but they went down the path of actuality rather then fiction like George mealies.      They invented a three in one camera in which they could film, develop and project. This idea came from Thomas Edison’s kinetoscope in which they expanded on, as they knew more then one person could watch at ones, so they found a way to project it. They made many films all under 1 minute long, “workers leaving the factory” and “baby eating breakfast” were seen as the first documentaries, in which they began making over 2000 franks a night. They quickly began sending these cameras all over the world to get footage of cultures, people and places many people had never seen before.
