REVISITING GEORGES MELIES | 2/26/18
Stepping back a bit, we are going to screen Hugo. So lets review the accomplishments of George Melies. Write a paragraph response summarizing his accomplishments in cinema history.
George Melies made a huge impact in cinema. Melies was the filmmaker who innovated in the use of special effects, something that all films use to this very day, as well as films like Get Out, which used special effects for fire. He created an iconic short film known as A Trip To The Moon. The short film is regarded as the first scripted film and is the earliest example of science fiction. He is still highly praised in the film industry, especially by filmmaker Martin Scorsese, who made a film titled Hugo, in 2011, which bases its story on the history of George Melies.
