Today fifty-three years ago was <i>The Day The Music Died</i>. No I am NOT talking about the anniversary of the release of Don Mclean's song American Pie, I'm talking about the real day the music died. When three of the greatest rock and roll singers of 50's era died in a plane crash near Clear Lake, Iowa. Buddy Holly, J.P "The Big Bopper" Richardson, and Ritchie Valens were all on tour for the big "The Winter Dance Party" which was a tour that covered twenty-four states in Midwestern cities in just three weeks. It was cold and snowy and the tour bus was half broken and on it's last leg. Buddy Holly deiced to charter a plan to the next tour stop instead of withstanding the cold 380 miles to Moorhead, Minnesota. Originally Buddy Holly's band mates, Waylon Jennings and Tommy Allsup, had planned on flying with him but both were approached and asked for their seat in the plan. J.P. Richardson (The Big Bopper) first asked Jennings for his seat, since he'd developed a case of the flu. Then Ritchie Valens asked Tommy Allsup for his seat, Tommy said he'd flip a coin for his spot...... what an awful way to decide who'd get on the doomed plane! Of course they didn't know that then. Well you know the rest of the story, plane takes off, plane crashes, and the death of the three of the greatest rock and roll pioneers (plus the pilot) died that day on February 3rd, 1959. Still to this day their legend and music lives on, and that's the way it will always be. So next time your hear one of their songs on the radio stop and think about <i>The Day The Music Died</i>.<br />

However, he was defiantly a huge influence on the golden era of musicals and has inspired many dancers, actors, singers, and producers around the world. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Astaire" target="_blank">Fred Astaire</a> (Fredrick Austerlitz) has done countless movies and theater performances as well as recorded several albums for his musical hits. Fred Astaire is also very well know for his unique and iconic fashion style of wearing top hats, white tie and tails in his movies, as well as sporting a tie or scarf in lieu of a belt. I could go on and on about Astaire and the all interesting things he's done but I've decided to do a photo post and dedicate it all the pictures of <i>Astaire in the Air.</i></div>
Enjoy!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
This day in time one-hundred and eleven years ago in Dallas, Texas, Phyllis Virginia Daniels was born to a stage manager and actress. Later her childhood nickname became her iconic stage name "Bebe" Daniels. At the age of nine she stared in her first short film <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wonderful_Wizard_of_Oz_(1910_film)" target="_blank">The Wonderful Wizard of Oz</a>. Later she landed the roll as the lead actress in Harold Lloyd's Lonesome Luke series, which pushed her career towards success immensely. After staring in many more silent films (including her first major "adult" roll in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsieur_Beaucaire_(1924_film)" target="_blank">Monsieur Beaucaire</a> with Rudolph Valentino) Bebe finally appeared in her first <i>talkie</i> in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rio_Rita_(1929_film)" target="_blank">Rio Rita</a>. At the age of seventy on March 17, 1971 Phyllis Virginia Daniels died in London of a cerebral hemorrhage, late her ashes were brought back to Hollywood CA, the place she once considered "home." </div>

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Christmas and new year holiday! I've been plotting for several days to do a Christmas special post, but I couldn't deiced what exactly I wanted to write about.<br />
I finally deiced to do it on the oldest known Christmas themed silent films. I did some digging and as far as I can tell the oldest one is a one minutes short titled<i> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc3ei1tseeM&feature=relmfu" target="_blank">Santa Claus</a></i> It was produced in 1898 by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Albert_Smith_(film_pioneer)" target="_blank">George Albert Smith</a>. George Albert Smith was supposedly the first film maker to explore fictional and fantasy film plots. He also came out with some super cool special effects for that time period and ended up being the first to patenting the double-exposure system. It always amazes me what they were able to accomplish with such little technology back then. I don't know how they discovered it when video camera's hadn't even been around that long; but it defiantly shows how dedicated they were to making film successful.<br />

You can watch the short film <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc3ei1tseeM" target="_blank">HERE</a>, pay close attention to when the use the "special effects" (they're not hard to miss). Let me know your comments on the film. Have you seen it before? If not what did you find interesting (or not interesting). What'd you think of the special effects?<br />

The next oldest Christmas film that I discovered in my research was one the very first retelling on film of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. It was produced in 1901 by an early British film pioneer, Walter R. Booth. Booth first worked on doing what was called "trick films," they were typically the very first-hand drawn animation films (his first "trick film" was <i>The Hand of the Artist </i>1906).<br />
So Booth's Christmas film was called <i>Scrooge</i> or <i>Marley's Ghost</i>, only 620 feet (or 3 min. ) of the film has survived this long. Even though we can't watch all of it, it's legacy still lives on for being the first <i>Christmas Carol </i>film. Just think of how many movie remakes of the <i>A Christmas Caro</i>l have been made over the years (29 that I've found so far)! This one was the first and although most people don't even know about this film, it made history.<br />

Okay, so you can watch what's left of the surviving 1901 <i>Scrooge</i> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9Mk-B7MKP8" target="_blank">HERE</a>. Like Albert Smith's <i>Santa Claus</i> film <i>Scrooge</i> has double the special effects. Now they're pretty early/rough special effects but imagine how cool they would've appeared in 1901!!<br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Stop motion was really the start of film and although there were many people who experimented with making stop motions in the 17th century, it really all started out with Leland Stanford, a wealthy businessman and politician who one day wondered while riding his horse if all four of his horse's feet left the ground simultaneously. He was so curious that in 1879 he hired Eadweard Muybridge, a English photographer, to take a series of photos of his horse running. Eadweard then put all the photos together creating a very successful first stop motion of real photos. This was the beginning of a huge step towards the birth of silent films.</span><br />

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Muybridge later invited what is to be known as the very first movie projector, the Zoopraxiscope (a mouth full right?) The Zoopraxiscope was simply a machine where you placed a disc with photos or illustrations on and then the machine would rotate the discs giving the still images a motion effect. Very similar to what you do when you're bored at the office; draw on every single note in your sticky pad then flip thru to watch your stickman figure dance around franticly. You've got to admit, these machines were pretty cool looking for their time. Just imagine having one of these babies in your living room!</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">After Muybridge there were two other important pioneers leading up to the invention of more efficient film methods. The first was Etienne-Jules Marey, a French scientist, who in 1882 invented the "photographic gun" (it really looked more like a rifle) which could capture 12 photographs per second. Marey's contraption was called the Chronophotographe. T</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: small;">his was different from Muybridge's technology because it could record all the photos on one plate. It turned out to be an extraordinary progression for Marey and caused research and experiments to progress further.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The second pioneer was another Frenchman, Louis Aime Augustin Le Prince (who is considered to be the true father of motion pictures). In 1888 Le Prince used long paper rolls that were covered in photographic emulsion for the first single-lens camera which he invented. Only two of his films survived today, but what can you expect when they were filmed on paper strips!! Unbelievable right?</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next we skip down to 1890 when Thomas Edison's young British assistant, William Dickson, combined all the past research of film/cameras and created a very early and rough version of a motor-powered camera the <i>Kinetograph</i>. It was first publicly demonstrated in 1893 with a short 34-second film clip of three men pretending to be blacksmiths, it was naturally titled "Blacksmith Scene." Dickson also created his own movie projector called the <i>Kinetoscope,</i> which proved to be a huge step in projector technology.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> In 1894 the first "Kinetoscope Parlor" was opened by the Holland Brothers in New York. You would pay 25 cents to watch five <i>Kinetoscope</i> short films. I'm sure it was very similar to visiting the arcade now days, but no doubt it was a very special treat to visit one of these "early day theaters". Later on Some of the films were even hand color or tinted so they would be more appealing to spectators.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Our next step takes us to 1895 when two French brothers (those brilliant Frenchmen right?) Louis and Auguste Lumiere were inspired by Dickson and Edison's inventions of the <i>Kinetoscope</i>. They worked at a Lyon's factory making photographic supplies, so they were pretty knowledgeable about how things worked. They ended up inventing their very own portable, lightweight, hand-help movie camera and projector the <i>Cinematograph. </i>The <i>Cinematograph</i> was destined to be profitable because it had so many multi-tasking purposes. It was combined with camera, printer and projecting capabilities which meant films could actually be viewed by several people instead of peeping through a tinny <i>Kinetoscope</i> viewer. The <i>Cinematograph</i> used 35mm film and recorded at 16 fps (which was the standard until "talkies" came out in the late 20's).</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now I could go on and on until I finally reached film making in the 21st century; but I won't because film started rapidly progressing after the invention of the <i>Cinematograph</i> and there is to much to write in just one blog post. I'll end this post with some pictures of the first permanent movie theater, Edisonia Vitascope Hall, that opened in Buffalo,NY in October of 1896. It seated 72 patrons who would anxiously await to watch a 10-12 minute film.</span></div>
