You can also use Historiana (https://historiana.eu/#/historical-content/source-collections/still-photography) and 2 photos for the collection: Still photography and more specific: photo 1: Camera Obscura and photo 14: 35mm film
 
3. Discuss and keep useful notes within your team trying to answer the following questions:
  • How far back in times could we go through these photos?
  • What kind of information about movement’s visualization they give to us?

You can compare these ways of movement’s visualization with the first images which ancient people drew in rocks in Altamira cave in order to visualize the movement:
