That's just some filters on and bad camera work of a modern parade. Look at the people on the side watching.

"Horse in Motion". 1878. First film ever created.

The first film was made in 1878.

He died in 1865. So yes, it's fake.

They've already been using 16:9 crop format

It's not fake, those are actual people! Some of the spectators were ahead of their time. T-shirts weren't exactly fashionable back then, but some commoners thought 'to hell with long sleeves, these short sleeves are going to be popular someday'.

This must have been filmed on a Nikon

Apparently, the pioneer filmmaker got his film stock labels messed up. The 1864 parade is suddenly set 4 years earlier. Unless it was a very long and boring parade lasting 4 years.

Contributor didn't get a model release. Can't use it for commercial purpose.
