This morning I continued reading the same Frankenstein book. This chapter was primarily about the 1910 Edison film adaptation of the story, the first Frankenstein film ever made. It was thought lost but then a copy was discovered to be in a man's collection but he refused to archive it, showing it publicly for money for many years. He eventually released it to DVD and he died in 2005. The film has Frankenstein create the monster in a huge vat and the filmmkaer used reverse fire to create the effect of chemical construction. It is available now on Youtube. I watched it today (it is only 10 minutes) and felt inspired to try out this effect. I created my daily film; "Thomas Edison and the Stitchpunk Frankenstein Monster". It took me much of the day.
