Helvenston's story sketch of the "Brainamo." the Empire State Building. Electronics and mad machines of the future give verve to the hair-raising drama of a little boy turned loose in a world of magic dreams. Denizens that are "not quite out of this world nor quite in it," "cartoon" characters portrayed by fleshand-blood actors, are whisked here and there by means of astonishing devices from one suspense-filled scene to the next, as laugh follows gasp in the action-packed episodes of "Kid Magic." Helvenston considers himself immensely fortunate in having such an imaginative fun-loving director as Erie Kenton, known for his "Frankenstein" pictures as well as Abbott and Costello's best grossers. The talents and enthusiasms of Carl Berger, Cameraman, Joseph Gluck, film editor, and Harry Redmond, Jr., in special effects will be utilized to the utmost in the unfolding of this film series. Helvenston has been engaged in television almost since its inception in Los Angeles. He was Art Director for KTSL and later KTLA.
