Sonata — A Point of Pride for California's Bank of America Obxiously, the Bank of America's new corporate headquarters building in San Francisco was not built just to enable a film to be made about it's construction. But one cannot help but wonder after seeing Sonata, a niagnificient film about what must surely be a great structure. Produced by Walter Landor As On location at the Bank of America center during filming of "Sonata" is Hugh Salisbury, director of photography. sociates of San Francisco. Sonata tells the story of the building of the bank of America's new International headquarters building ... in unforgettable terms. Exemplary photography, a brilliant score and a positively outstanding editing job makes this film a must for any company considering a film about a building. Not overlooking the vital human element at all. Sonata actually seems to create an audience feeling for the inanimate steel and marble used in its construction. One cannot help but liken it to Charles Guggenheim's Monument to the Dream. While with not the same drame and historical significance. Sonata conveys a similar impact and emotion to the viewer. For its effect, Sonata uses very imaginative, split, spread and multi-screen techniques along with a great score and quick cuts. This film cannot help but auger well for the Bank of America. Prints of the film are available from Modern Talking Picture Service (in the West only as of this writing). — AR EDITORS NOTE: As part of Business Screen's expanded coverage and service to the audiovisual industry, our "Picture Parade" department will henceforth consist of Continued on next page Books used to be a great way to give people information and ideas . . .
