The First Colour Moving Pictures at the National Media Museum
Find out about the First Colour Moving Pictures on display at the National Media Museum. for more information visit www.nationalmediamuseum.org.uk Lee and Turner's invention has always been regarded by film historians as a practical failure but it has now been 'unlocked' through digital technology, revealing the images produced by the process for the first time in over a hundred years. Turner developed his complex three-colour process with support, first from Lee and then from the American film entrepreneur, Charles Urban. Using a camera and projector made by Brighton-based engineer Alfred Darling, Turner developed the process sufficiently to take various test films of colourful subjects such as a macaw, a goldfish in a bowl against a brightly striped background and his children playing with sunflowers, before his death in 1903 aged just 29. Urban went on to develop the process further with the pioneer film-maker George Albert Smith which resulted in the commercially successful Kinemacolor system, patented in 1906 and first exhibited to the public in 1909. Sadly, Turner's widow never received a penny from her husband's invention. On discovering the film, Michael Harvey, Curator of Cinematography at the National Media Museum, worked with film archive experts Brian Pritchard and David Cleveland to reconstruct the moving footage in colour following the precise method laid out in Lee and Turner's 1899 patent. They turned to experts at the BFI National Archive who were able to ...

Worlds first colour moving pictures discovered
"Cinema" "first color movie" "National Media Museum" "Michael Harvey" "Bryony Dixon" "British Film Institute" "Kinemacolour" "Edward Raymond Turner" Worlds first colour moving pictures discovered The world's first colour moving pictures dating from 1902 have been found by the National Media Museum in Bradford after lying forgotten in an old tin for 110 years. The discovery is a breakthrough in cinema history. Michael Harvey from the National Media Museum and Bryony Dixon from the British Film Institute talk about the importance of the discovery. The previous earliest colour film, using the Kinemacolour process, was thought to date from 1909 and was actually an inferior method. The newly-discovered films were made by pioneer Edward Raymond Turner from London who patented his colour process on 22 March 1899. The story of Edwardian colour cinema then moved to Brighton. Turner shot the test films in 1902 but his pioneering work ended abruptly when he died suddenly of a heart attack. Now the film has been restored by the National Media Museum and is being shown to audiences for the first time. The Race for Colour is broadcast on Monday, 17 September 2012 on BBC One South East and Yorkshire, at 19:30 BST and nationwide for seven days thereafter on the iPlayer. Note: Film archive is courtesy of the Bradford National Media Museum and The Science Museum.

Donovan Wylie on the Maze Series & his influences
Magnum Photographer Donovan Wylie talks about his influences and Maze series of photographs Gallery One: 30 September 2011 - 19 February 2012 Building upon his previous projects - Maze and British Watchtowers - Wylie's new work continues to interrogate the architecture of conflict, and derives from the idea of vision and power. Wylie was recently embedded with Canadian troops in Afghanistan's Kandahar province. From here he surveyed the military outposts which commanded multiple lines of sight, with dominance over vast swathes of land. The Bradford Fellowship is a partnership between the University of Bradford, Bradford College and this Museum. The Fellowship is a prestigious award, given to mid-career photographers or artists to develop their professional practise in the context of our Collection. This exhibition form parts of Ways of Looking, a new photography festival in Bradford, 1 - 30 October 2011.
