Muybridge was one of the first modern video artists. He took still pictures and put them together to make videos. In a time when still photos ruled the art world, Muybridge began putting together videos like this. This video is made by putting still photos together and putting it all in motion. It is very interesting because it is one of the first motion pictures. These are two of his more famous videos. They show each and every movement of a horse and a bucking mule. It is very much like a modern day slow motion video.
What is particularly amazing about these videos was the time they were created in. During this time images did not come to life. They were still photos. These however, brought a still world to life.
