jan 1, 1907 - 1907 - Glass Shot

Description:

The Glass shot technique was first used in "The Missions of California". During the filming of this movie Norman Dawn, the director, wanted to film Missions of California as they appeared in their founding. To do this Dawn painted the missing compenents for his scenes on glass and hang them in front of the camera. When lined up properly it created a seamless viewing experience.
