Never get out of the boat

 

Panorama du grand Canal pris d'un bateau (1896)

Directed by Alexandre Promio this is an early short film. A camera on a boat goes up the canal.

Possibly the first travelling shot in history this film is similar to a number of other camera on boat films from the period. No idea if this was actually the first of its type or not. Lacks a bit of action to really make it stand out.
