PRODUCES AUDIBLE EFFECTS — Sound recording studios and inde¬ pendent industrial film producers now may produce sound effects equalling those heard in major film productions. Mole-Richardson Company, 937 No. Sycamore Ave., Hollywood 38, Calif., is marketing what it has tradenamed “Windhowler” — a compact machine with accessories capable of producing a wide range of sound effects for motion pictures. So if you need the sound of wind, a gentle breeze, a hurricane, etc., for some of your forth¬ coming films, the “Windhowler” can produce them with surprising authen¬ ticity. The numerous sounds are produced by means of various combinations of resonators, shown in photo. Sound volume is regulated by rheostat. The equipment may be used “live” on stage, or as a means for recording re¬ quired sounds in advance of filming. _ •> lAKL _ [SOUND DIRECTOR CAMERAMAN PRODUCED BY DATE EXT NT REMARKS SLICK CLAPSTICK-AND-SLATE — There’s a new look in clapstickslates these days that eclipses the conventional black-and-white slate, used almost since the advent of sound films. Its the CECO Quick Slate, made of white lucite and which utilizes a black grease pencil as the mark¬ ing medium instead of chalk. Pencil is permanently attached to slate by means of a pull-out chain with automatic return. A special eraser is pro¬ vided for quick wipe-off of penciled data and there’s a clip on back of slate to hold it when not in use. A novel feature is the use of imbedded magnets to hold clap-sticks in closed position between takes. Measuring 914" by 11", the slate lists for $24.95.
