3. 1 The beginning of the cinema
The cinema was born in our city (Lyon) in 1895. August
and Louis Lumiere are the first who invented the
cinema with the help of different materials like:
thaumatrope:
Praxinoscope:
4. Kinescope:
Their technical was moving a lot of pictures with their
specific equipment and since this evenement it was
the birth of the cinema and the origin of the first film
projection, in 1895, in Paris. In France, we call the
cinema the seventh art. August and Louis are brothers
and we call them the Lumière brothers (in French: Les
frères Lumière).
5. Many places in Lyon are bearing The Lumiere name,
for example: universities, subway stations, high
schools, institutes...

6. A high school
Near the subway station, there is the house of august

cinematography.
7. 2 Kind of movies…
There are a lot of kinds of films: horror, adventure,
science fiction Action, Comedy, Fantastic, Drama,
cartoons (ex: Roi lion, Age de Glace), Suspense…In our
cinema, we can find all the kinds of films. We can also
choose how to lo watch our film, for example the 3D,
4D, 5D, 6D, and 7D. Watching a film in 3D version is
more expansive than watching a normal film if you
buy the glasses, if not you pay 6 euro 80. 4D film or 4-
D film is a marketing term for an entertainment
presentation system combining a 3D film with physical
effects. 4D films have occasionally been marketed as
5D, 6D, or 7D films in order to emphasize the variety
or uniqueness of their theatre effects. However, there
is no consistent standard among films for the
application of these marketing labels. In Lyon, people
can watch 5D film but that is more expensive( 5 euro
for 5 minutes) because you can smell, move, feel,
touch while watching the film.
