British Antarctic Expedition South Pole suffragette F. Percy Smith nature documentary Charles Urban television newsreels film
From 1910 on, regular newsreels were exhibited and soon became a popular way of discovering the news before the advent of television –  the British Antarctic Expedition to the South Pole was filmed for the newsreels as were the suffragette demonstrations that were happening at the same time. F. Percy Smith was an early nature documentary pioneer working for Charles Urban when he pioneered the use of time lapse and micro cinematography in his 1910 documentary on the growth of flowers.
