Eadweard Muybridge is known for creating the “Sallie Gardner at a Gallop” moving image,
this moving image was created by him in 1878 making it one of the very first motion images
ever created. This creation depicts a horse running at 24 photographs that were shot in
rapid succession creating the illusion of movement however this animation was only around
3 seconds long meaning this is a very short film although it still helped to revolutionise film
through its use of being on the first moving images ever created. The invention known as
the “Zoopraxiscope” was also created by him in 1879 and was used to display motion
images sort of similar to how the “Phenakistoscope” showed its images in a rapid
succession. This was used to show people his creation of the moving horse and to help bring
his motion picture to life and was then future developed into the projector that is used in
cinemas of today, this was however the starting point that helped to revolutionise stop
motion. This creation also gave people an idea of how objects should be animated by
changing each part of the image on every frame, this is used today in stop motion animation
as in every frame something moves in the frame as to create real life motion and to trick the
viewer into thinking that the fast images are really video.
