Continuing the trend of silent films, today's featured short is George Milies' A Trip to the Moon. George Milies was a French filmmaker and magician and used techniques from both of these fields to create unique special effects. This film is also noted for being the first motion picture with a story and narrative. All prior films were little more than minute-long exhibits of various scenes or portraits.
Enough talk. On with the show.
That's all for me for now, folks. Sorry for the lack of posts recently. School has kept me busy!
