A HOME -MOVIE MYSTERY
FOR FATHER AND DAUGHTER
By MILTON R. ARMSTRONC
Co-Founder, L. A. 8mm. Club
EDITOR'S NOTE: This productiontested scenario is adapted from one with which author Milton R. Armstrong took a prize in a recent contest held by the Los Angeles 8mm. Club. He filmed it in Kodachrome, making a 50foot 8mm. picture which gave him an opportunity for a number of interesting effect-lightings in color. The moonlighteffects called for can be obtained by placing a blue gelatin over the regular Photoflood light used in lighting the interiors. The color-lighting change required in Scene 11 can be obtained very easily by starting the scene with the blue gelatin over the lamp, and then removing it. If you have a spotlight you can get some very interesting effectlightings, too, by lighting the room itself with the blue-filtered light, and using the spotlight on the little girl, to simulate the warmer light from her candle.
