Le British Film Institute a créé un cours en ligne sur l’émergence du cinéma à la fin de l’ère victorienne (1895-1901). Les experts qui en sont les enseignants sont Bryony Dixon, Mark Reid, Gemma Starkey. Le cours est gratuit et en voici les objectifs:
- Investigate the late Victorian period in Britain. Unravel and discuss common myths about the era, and examine what Victorian films reveal about the society that produced them.
- Examine how film became a key medium to explore the rapidly-changing Victorian world; both at home and abroad. Discover why a phantom ride isn’t as scary as it sounds, and have the opportunity to make your own to share with peers.

- Draw parallels with the visual spectacles available in Victorian period and our own multimedia landscape.
