We have developed an ultrafast imaging system to record and observe the femtosecond phenomena in air and an optical medium as a form of a temporally continuous motion picture. To obtain the motion picture, the light-in-flight recording by holography using a femtosecond pulsed laser is applied. We demonstrate the recording and observation of femtosecond
