The film was made by Eadweard Muybridge and was made in 1878. The movie was made to scientifically answer a popularly debated question during this era: Are all four of a horse’s hooves ever off the ground at the same time while the horse is galloping? The video proved that they indeed were and, more importantly, motion photography was born.

Eadweard Muybridge was born Edward James Muggeridge on April 4th, 1830, in England, and for some unknown reason, later changed his name to the far harder to spell, Eadweard James Muybridge. During his twenties, he traveled across America selling books and photographs before a serious head injury he suffered in a stagecoach accident in Texas in 1860 forced him back to England for rest and recovery.
