LYSBETH HOUSE, SOHO SQUARE, LONDON, W.l. Gerrard 1736)7 j8 Member of the Federation of Documentary Film Units Talking About F////1 Strip . . . and we talked a lot about it in 1946 — to clubs, societies and education authorities, on the BBC, in the Press, to industrialists and so on. Much of that talking has borne fruit. Our studios are busy on work for industry and the Services. We have successfully launched our Unicorn Head film strips for schools and educational bodies. Soon we shall have produced our first colour strip 'Light into Colour' for this series. Our EDP Projector is being used in increasing numbers — it was one of the two chosen for the Britain Can Make It Exhibition. We have built a team of visualizers, scriptwriters, cameramen and artists who are proud of the work we produce. And we're finding larger premises to cope with our 1947 programme. . . . and talking about M? lllTXS — we have three documentaries in production now. There are some who would say this is good going— we are inclined to that view, too, but continue our efforts to be prepared to meet the growing demand for our work. •Jo/m Curthoys Managing Director, IXritish Industrial Films lAd 183 King's Road, Chelsea, SW3 *l,\xman09ii SEVENLEAGUE FILM UNIT DOCUMENTARY AND SCIENTIFIC FILMS INSTRUCTIONAL FILMS FOR CHILDREN WORLD WINDOW TRAVEL FILMS IN TECHNICOLOR In charge of production: II.
