This history-making presentation featured 10 short films, including Arrival of a train at La Ciotat. It is said that when the film was first shown, the audience was so overwhelmed by the moving image of a life-sized train coming directly diagonally at them that people screamed and ran to the back of the room. Showing the train coming in diagonally across the screen was, at the time, a very unconventional method of framing in photography ; and because of its dramatic effect this was to become the standard method of staging action over the next few years.
A documentary filmmaker aims to expose the richness and ambiguity of real life as he or she sees it unfold through the lens of the camera. Key to documentary filmmaking is, therefore, the talent to recognize the ideal camera angle for the subject. Together with lighting, editing, and filming attitude, camera placement is the main tool a documentary filmmaker has. Instead, Lumiere positioned the camera at an oblique angle.
