ARRIFLEX at work
ARRIFLEX® achieves macrocinematographic objective for Moody Institute of Science
A 10-year project of photo-documenting bees maintaining their cities, communicating, telling time and even measuring distances geometrically, was culminated when Dr. Irwin A. Moon, Director of the Moody Institute of Science, Los Angeles, California completed filming "City of the Bees.” In making the notable documentary, which has attracted widespread acclaim both here and abroad, Moody Institute of Science photog¬ raphers relied heavily on the Arriflex 16’s mirror reflex features, highly-maneuverable compactness and famed versatility. Ex¬ ploring unusual procedures in macrocinematography, they synchronized stroboscopic light pulses with the reflex mirrorshutter. This permitted maximum film exposure without sub¬
jecting the sensitive, delicate bees to the disturbing, destruc¬ tive heat of standard lighting. The background story of this fascinating production is reported in the SMPTE JOURNAL, September, 1962 and FILM WORLD of February, 1963.
Utilizing a variety of lenses and lens combinations, the challenges of shooting from moving vehicles . . . within closelyrestricted tree and hive areas... or combining macroscopic subjects with normal backgrounds — were all easily met. In successfully filming “City of the Bees," Arriflex once again proved itself indispensable as a photographic tool of almost limitless capabilities. On location, or in studio, it will do the same for you.
