Timeline

1890

In the late 1890s Porter worked as both a projectionist and mechanic, eventually becoming director and cameraman for the Edison Manufacturing Company.

1903

Influenced by both the "Brighton school" and the story films of Georges Méliès, Porter went on to make important shorts such as Life of an American Fireman (1903) and The Great Train Robbery (1903). In them, he helped to develop the modern concept of continuity editing, paving the way for D. W. Griffith who would expand on Porter's discovery that the unit of film structure was the shot rather than the scene.

1909

Co-founded (w/William Swanson, Joseph W. Engel) Rex Film Co., formed in 1909.
