- English photographer important for his pioneering work in photographic studies of motion
- Early work in motion-picture projection
- Animal locomotion
- Zoopraxiscope
- The zoopraxiscope projected images from rotating glass disks in rapid succession to give the impression of motion. The stop-motion images were initially painted onto the glass, as silhouettes. A second series of discs, made in 1892–94, used outline drawings printed onto the discs photographically, then colored by hand. Some of the animated images are very complex, featuring multiple combinations of sequences of animal and human movement.
