When was more that 1 reel of film used to make a film?

In: Movies [Edit categories]

Answer:

In 1902-1903, the first filmmaker to utilize editing was Edwin Porter who combined news reel footage of firemen with a scene set inside a burning house, making it the first film to originate from multiple reels. There may have been earlier lost examples in other countries, but I think 1902 is the answer you are looking for.
