Abstract
The motion picture is a product of science. There is ample historical material available for those who wish to convince themselves of this fact, but a brief review is given of the work of Muybridge and Marey in order to clarify the cause of their inventions. The ensuing discussion centers around the question, “Has science maintained its interest in the motion Picture and has it utilized its advantages to its full extent?” In this paper the word “science” is taken broadly and includes research, dissemination of knowledge, and industrial application. Motion Picture's application to science is divided into two distinct categories and are discussed in detail: The motion Picture as an aid to scientific research; The motion Picture as a medium for the dissemination of knowledge. The paper concludes with descriptions and demonstrations of interesting material from the files of the Rolab Photo-Science Laboratories. Also an inside view is given of production activities of an unusual character.
