Lumiere Brothers mural
In 1892 the Lumiere brothers, Auguste and Louis, of Lyon began to create moving pictures. They patented a number of significant processes leading up to their film camera - most notably film perforationsas a means of advancing the film through the camera and projector. The cinématographe itself was patented on 13 February 1895 and the first footage ever to be recorded using it was recorded on March 19, 1895.
