What is Lumiere's most important achievement in film aesthetics?

Lumiere's most important achievement in film aesthetics is the establishment of documentary aesthetics.

The Lumiere brothers adopted a more realistic attitude. First of all, they got rid of the shackles of the closed artificial space owned by the photographers in the studio and moved towards the vast and open natural space. The content of the work is also to try harder to express and copy the things and lives that actually exist in real life, rather than to arrange and perform those things and lives that don't actually exist for the camera.

For example, short films originally shot by Louis Lumiere, such as Factory Gate, Train Entering Station, Woman Burning Grass, Ship Leaving Port, Representative Landing, Police Parade, etc. , directly show those off-duty workers, passengers getting on and off the bus, working women, fishermen boating out to sea, photographers ashore, policemen marching on the street and so on.

Main inventions:

1, film machine

Lumiere brothers summed up their predecessors' experience and invented the world's first relatively perfect, flexible and portable portable "mobile movie machine" in 1894. This is a machine that can take pictures, show and develop.

The film machine consists of a black box with a traction mechanism for intermittent motion of 35 mm film and a shutter rotation mechanism. It is equipped with a camera lens to take pictures at the frequency of 12 frames per second.

2, three-color photos

1907, 10 In June, Lumiere brothers invented the process of making three-color photos. This method was developed by their family's factory in France, and it is based on the use of three independent images of the photographed scene.

For each of the three images, use an appropriate color filter to make a negative with one of the three primary colors of red, green and blue. Then, place a particle screen on the three-color master. When the screen is placed on it and the light shines on them, a full-color image will appear.
