These Films were Intended To be Internal Tests of the new Camera System, and Were not Created for Commercial use, Their Rise to Prominence Resulted Much Later Due To Work bye Film Historians all three Films show A Blurry Figure in White Standing in One Place Making Large Gestures and Are Only a Few Seconds Long.
