At the cabbage patch, or section of it. The husband and wife are searching under the plants, examining the tiny bundles. Cut to: Scene 31. Close shot on the wife. She is gleefully examining one of the bundles, gestures and calls off scene for her husband. Cut to: Scene 32. New angle on both. He examines the face of the bundle closely. The wife points to what would be baby’s eyes and then to husband’s eyes, pantomiming and saying they are same color. He smiles broadly. Takes baby and both go off scene. Fade to: Scenes 33 to 37. Back in the home. Various angle shots of the new baby being bathed. Dissolve to: Scenes 38 to 42. Varied angle shots of baby being fed. Dissolve to: Scenes 43 to 47. Shots of baby being readied and put to bed. Cut to: Scene 48. Tight close-up of baby in bed — awake. Cut to or dissolve : Scene 49. Tight close-up of baby asleep. Fade Out l here it is, and I, and my friends, think it is a “little honey”— the idea, I mean. Not the baby. The cabbage patch touch surely takes the moss off the old hoakum way of putting the family baby into the movies, we think. By the way, as to probable difficulty in finding cabbage patches, should someone want to shoot such a continuity out of cabbage season : It wouldn’t be much of a “production cost” to invest in a dozen heads or so at the grocery or market, then “prop” plant or place them in the back yard or other suitable spot, shoot the cabbage patch scenes “close.” Living in California, where I can find a cabbage patch somewhere about any time of year, it is no problem for me. In shooting the cabbage patch keep all evidence of activity out of the scene. Shoot from high if you can. Passing cars, telephone wires or other extraneous commercial items take something away from the imagination. This is a picture that should be kept in an “imaginative mood.” For the “babies” under the cabbage heads, I suggest that dolls, bought or borrowed, be used to give a realistic touch. In the meantime, I’ll figure out another original film “ditty” to get myself two more rolls of prize film — eh ? (Editor's Note: Cinecammer O’Dogherty’s confidence in his idea has not been misplaced. It was voted an original “baby story” continuity and two rolls of 8mm film have been sent to him.)
