Is this footage actually part of the film known as the "Photodrama of Creation" or is it only the parts 1 through 96?

[photodramaofcreation]

@britishwisejake The original Photodrama consisted of these 96 parts, plus a variety of films. What is presented on this channel are the 96 parts (which the author considered most important), and some of the film content (those of Pastor Russell). We intend to upload some of the remaining film content over time.

@britishwisejake This specific film is the introduction, and there are other film sequences on this channel which are part of the overall production. The complete original was the first Audio-Visual Presentation of its kind that synchronized sound with hand-colored film sequences and slides. The complete set of 96 slide portions are given here. Additional film sequences will be added in 2012. Thank you for your interest.

not to stir anything up , but how can you claim rights to this? did you purchase the rights to the Photo drama of creation?

[photodramaofcreation]

@65mustangguy The individual who created this particular production has the right to keep it from being copied and resold by unscrupulous individuals, which sadly, has happened. He spent many, many hours retouching the films, capturing them from original materials, scanning original slides, etc. He does not own the Original Photodrama of Creation, but has legal rights to this particular historic reproduction of it. Thank you for your understanding.

This man was not a Jehovah's Witness..He was a born again Christian...Plain and simple...He affirms that Jesus is God and the Lord of creation...and the ultimate sacrifice fully expressed at Calvary which he shows us pictures from the old testament in Type form....J.W's do not believe that Jesus is God and deny His Deity....They are what the Lord and Peter and Paul and James call...apostates...!!! They deny his Sonship and Equality with God as God...I think the proper term is "Cult"

[photodramaofcreation]

@ajsenn It is true that Pastor Russell was not a Jehovah's Witness, as that name did not come into existence until long after his death. However, he believed in one God, and did not believe in the Trinity. He preached that Jesus was the Son of God.

This... this is the first actual motion picture with sound.

[SatchmoSings]

This is very imaginably done; I'm surprised that Hollywood didn't pick up on this technique of using sound in film making; with the Victor Talking Machine's Auxetophone, sound in movie houses could have been a reality way before electronics.

I must say that this is one of the most amazing restoration projects I have ever seen. Where in the world did you find all of the elements? That's a rhetorical question actually; you needn't answer. But I am blown away, and thanks for posting this!!

Way ahead of his time, a true Prophet.

Russel's quest for truth was blessed.
