The Lumière Brothers: Concours de boules
The term "Ereignis" (event) comes from the New High German verb "eräugen", which originally meant that something happened so that it could be "eräugen", i.e. watched. Sporting events are often portrayed in films and on television in such a way that not only the athletes appear in the picture, but also those who are watching the event on location. It is as if this image design wants to say that the event is worth watching. In one of the “vues” taken by the Lumière company from 1895 onwards with one of its self-made cameras, in 1896 those watching also create a further movement that runs at right angles to the movement of the sport - in this case “Jeu de boules”. Some of these movements are provoked by the camera and the operator. For example, one of the players runs forward after his throw and cheers, running the risk of blocking the camera's view. He must have heard a call from the operator, because he moves back to the right. His sweeping arm movement signals that the view is now clear after all. He then tells other spectators not to block the camera's view. So that the event itself can be seen.
