In 1878, Railroad tycoon and former California Governor, Leland Stanford, believed that a horse becomes completely airborne when it trots or gallops. To prove his point, he commissioned photographer Edweard Muybridge to provide proof.
Muybridge developed a way to capture the photos in succession by connecting wires to the cameras. He arranged 12 cameras along a track on Stanford’s estate and as a horse sped by, tripped the wires connected to the cameras and took 12 photos in rapid succession. This became an early form of rolling pictures that paved the way for the motion picture industry.
