British Pathé surge en 1910 cuando previo a la invención de la televisión el cineasta Charles Pathé introduce el ''cinema newsreel'' en el Reino Unido, con el propósito de que el público viera las noticias en cine. El ''newsreel'' daba cuenta de acontecimientos políticos y escenas de personajes importantes en la vida social, conformando un periodismo cinematográfico que documentó importantes momentos en la memoria nacional e internacional. En el 2002 el archivo fue digitalizado con el financiamiento de la Lotería Nacional del Reino Unido, y en el 2010 se lanzó el sitio de entretenimiento en línea con servicios al público y la industria de las comunicaciones.

Description

The British Pathé Archive is an online film archive from the British Pathé production company, comprised of 90,000 pieces of work produced between 1896 and 1976, distributed by companies, museum, advertisers and educators, constituting an archive of global historical value on a diversity of themes, such as culture, science, occurrences, personalities and fashion.

British Pathé was born in 1910 when, prior to the advent of television, filmmaker Charles Pathé introduced the cinema newsreel to the United Kingdom, with the purpose of showing the public filmed news at the movie theater. Newsreels showed political events and scenes from the lives of important personalities, shaping a kind of cinematic journalism that documented important moments in the national and international memory. With funding from the UK National Lottery, the archive was digitized in 2002, and in 2010 it launched an online entertainment website serving the general public and the communications industry.

The archives include footage as old as the first motion picture images filmed in 1888 by Louis Le Prince in Leeds, footage from the following years documenting Victorian life, the 1908 Olympics, Captain Scott’s voyage to Antarctica and World Wars I & II.

The site can be browsed by keywords, using advanced search filters or by category (Entertainment & Humor, Fashion & Music, Historical Figures & Celebrities, Lifestyle & Culture, Religion & Politics, Science & Technology, Sport & Leisure, Trade & Industry, Travel & Exploration, War & Revolution).

Users can purchase nearly any film for viewing or educational purposes, but not for modification. Given that most footage is not in the public domain, using it requires a license that can be acquired for a fee. Schools are eligible for a subscription service with unlimited access to material for non-commercial use within the classroom, as well as access to professor-created collections.
