MORE MULTIPLE CAMERA TV FILMING
Battery of Nine Mitchell Cameras Photographs Edgar Bergen's TV Show
One of the most startling developments in TV film making is today's growing use of multiple camera set-ups. An outstanding example of this trend is Edgar Bergen's popular weekly TV show on CBS, The Don Fedderson Production, "Do You Trust Your Wife?" for which a battery of nine Mitchell 35mm cameras is used.
Four cameras are in simultaneous operation at all times and sound and filming is continuous for one hour before a live audience; later editing reduces footage to a half-hour show. Director Jim Morgan has made over 50 shows to date with nine Mitchell cameras used in this technique.
Similar to this production format is NBC's Groucho Marx Show, "You Bet Your Life," where eight Mitchell cameras are used.
Multiple camera work places great demands upon the cinematographers' equipment. Mitchell Cameras meet these exactinglyuniform precision filming requirements as do no other cameras in existence. For information, write : Mitchell Camera Corporation, 666 West Harvard St., Glendale 4, California.
Looking into the imposing array of cameras are Edgar Bergen, Charlie McCarthy and contestants.
