D. W. Griffith created his film 'Birth of a Nation' in 1915. Some of the innovations developed from the film are;
-The length of each shot was designed so as to influence our emotional response with dramatic scenes cut faster
-The film was edited to create a lengthy, dramatic epic narrative
-Subtitles were used
-Griffith filmed at night
-He used an extensive amount of tinting
-He perfected close-ups to show emotion
-He used cross-cutting
-Griffith varied his camera angles, using things like high angle shots and panoramic long shots
-He only used one camera and two lenses to do all of this, all in just nine weeks.
