Muybridge, who took the first "sequential photographs" in the late 19th century, and W. Freese-Green, who made the first movie camera, were among the pioneers of film. Then came RW Paul, who held the first theater screening in the UK of his own film titled "The Rough Sea of ​​Dover" in March 1896, GA Smith, who was the first in the world to try out "montage" around 1900 by making full use of cinematic techniques such as close-ups and cut-backs, and set shooting with location shooting and backdrops, as well as J. Williamson, C. Urban, C. Hepworth, and other pioneers of film, named by film historian G. Sadoul as the "Brighton School." Hepworth also wrote the world's first film manual, The ABC of Moving Pictures or Cinematography, in 1897, and GA Smith and Urban invented and patented the world's first color process, Kinemacolor, in 1902.
