Movie Makers (Jun-Dec 1928)

imm ii «■ « *& ■ ic S ditions prevail for both. The following summary may make my point clearer: The amateur cinematographer merely loads his camera in the usual way and he is ready to take Vitacolor pictures as he would with regular film. A small filter attached to the camera selects its color vibrations, which are recorded on the delicate emulsion of the film. The same is true when he projects his picture. The light vibrations recorded on the film pass selectively through another filter attached to the projector and, lo! there is his picture in color exactly as he saw it in reality. But I think Vitacolor's chief interest lies in the following points: Any lens regularly employed for taking ordinary black and white pictures may be used, under similar lighting conditions favorable to ordinary cinematography and at normal stops. The pictures may be projected upon any screen acceptable to black and white pictures. Innumerable copies may be made from the original film. The pictures may be taken on thirtyfive mm. and reduced to sixteen mm. film. The film used is Vitacolor panchromatic and will shortly be supplied by all leading dealers. Vitacolor is controlled by the Max B. Du Pont Vitacolor Corporation of Los Angeles, a closed corporation of which Eugene Overton is president, C. M. Kellogg, Vice-President; Harold S. Ryerson, treasurer and general manager; William R. James, secretary, and William De Mille, noted director and scenarist, and Max B. Du Pont, directors. Prominent stockholders of the firm, which has established production headquarters, offices and test laboratories in the old Lasky Realart Studios, Los Angeles, are: Dr. Rae Smith, A. F. Kales, Alphonzo Bell, T. T. C. Gregory, A. D. Schindler, Albert Ruddock, Ralph W. Lewis, Elliot Church, Rufus P. Spalding, E. D. Lyman, Roy D. Chapin and Earle C. Anthony. STUNTS FOR YOUR PROJECTOR (Continued from page 800) Have you ever tried projecting at an angle to the screen? The results are unique. As the projector is •moved more and more to the side, the picture becomes narrower and characters in the film are made taller and slimmer until they become like walking bean poles. If, however, the projector is below the level of the screen and facing up toward it, the phenomenon is reversed and we see our friends as plump as rubber balls and hardly as tall as they are broad.
