The Early History of Ethnographic Film: A chronology of the development of ethnographic film within a documentary film tradition

(Transcribed from Tim Asch’s Fall1989 Anth 575 syllabus and links added by Jennifer Cool)

1550 Around the middle of the century the camera obscura (“dark chamber) was in use.

1816 Joseph Nicéphore Niépce makes the first paper negative.

1839 Louis-Jacques-Mandé Daguerre makes a direct positive image on a silver plate, the daguerrotype.

1895 The year that the Lumière brothers (Auguste and Louis) developed a way to project moving images in Paris. Felix-Louis Regnault takes the first ethnographic film of a Wolof potter making a clay pot at the Exposition Ethnographique de L’Afrique Occidentale in Paris.

1898- 1899Alfred Cord Haddon films in the Torres Straits, Australia, with a Lumière camera. Even in these early years Haddon wrote that film should become an indispensable tool for ethnographic research.

1901-1912Walter Baldwin Spencer and Francis James Gillen film in central and northern Australia.

1914 Edward Curtis, In the Land of the War Canoes (43 min.)

1913-1922The making of Flaherty’s Nanook of the North (79 min.)

1923 Kodak markets 16mm film and cameras

1925 Merian C. Cooper and Ernest Schoedsack’s Grass (71 min.)

1932 The three color separation Technicolor process first used in the film La Cucaracha (25 min.) http://www.archive.org/details/La_Cucaracha_1934

1937 The Wedding of Palo (72 min.). F. Dlasheim and Knud Rasmussen

1960 Leacock, Pennebaker, Drew, and Bogdanovitch, using the “acutron” watch invent the first portable synchronous sound filming unit.

1998 Small, lightweight video recorders are now available to record more information with better quality and higher resolution than could 16mm in the 1980s. These TV images are now shown on home video digital plasma screens as large as 4”x6” (if you want they can be 30”x40”) with 5,000 lines per inch resolution (instead of today’s 525 lines per inch). The screens are 1” thick, plasma and the information comes to the screen digitally by two wires attached to one corner of the screen, at which point the information immediately spreads out across the entire plasma (or equivalent) without being projected.

1999 Many books are now published with a 3” computer disc placed in a little envelope on the inside front cover, that can digitally transmit 3 hours of visual information in the form of stills or moving images, music, and text.
