Color keynotes this big show of the West, and while Kodachrome film will travel through most of the cine cameras clicking night and day at the Exposition, black and white filming can be made colorful, too, by the use of filters. After the breeze, which blows gently through Golden Gate Park, sweeps the early morning fog away, the sky is a deep blue ; and on some days soft, fleecy clouds go scudding by, making it a paradise for filmers desiring beautiful cloud effects in their scenes. So, if you’re shooting black and white — that is, “pan” film — be sure to bring along a filter or two. And while we’re on the subject of color we’ll give a few pointers on shooting the colorful night displays in Kodachrome. Most cameras with variable speeds can be made to operate at less than eight frames per second — nearer to six — simply by moving the speed adjustment beyond the 8 F. P. S. mark. The following table of exposures were found to net good results last year on night shots filmed in Kodachrome type “A” at a speed of one frame per second (% of a second exposure) : Elephant Tower f/2 Pacifica f/2 Tower of the Sun.. . . f/2 Court of the Moon. . . f/1.5 Court of the Flowers f/1.5 Cambodian Towers. . f/2 Federal Bldg. Murals f/1.5 Gayway .... (At 8 frames f/1,5 To those who will be filmthe Exposition for the first time this year, we advise purchasing a map and guide before exposing a single foot of film. Study the location of each point of interest and its relation to the sun, so you can plan to shoot each spot at the time of day when sunlight will be most advantageous. Then, combining the guide book information with what has preceded here, you will have ample data on which to systematically plan your search for cinematic treasure at Treasure Island. Wool, oftL Wont L . . . o Continued from Pape 280 technique with which it was executed — plainly the result of applied study to that branch of art of making pen and ink pictures move on the screen. Casually thumbing through the pages of a Home Movies issue several years ago, Turner saw opportunity to capitalize further on his artistry by sketching title background designs. It wasn’t long aft erward that he succumbed to the urge to film movies, too, and purchase of a 16mm camera followed. It was only natural that he should toy with the idea of making animated cartoons. He had the imagination and the artistic ability to create and execute interesting pictures on paper. What he lacked was the knowledge of just how pen and ink sketches were made • All Amateurs, whether subscribers of HOME MOVIES or not, are invited to submit their films to the editors for review and helpful criticism. Unless otherwise requested, reviews of some of the films which we believe would benefit other amateurs will be published each month. Reviewed films will be rated one, two, three, and four stars, and films qualifying for two or more stars will Receive free, an animated leader indicative of such award. Detailed reviews, with suggestions for improvement— if any — will be mailed to amateurs submitting their films. Exceptional films qualifying for the distinction of the "Movie of the Month" will be treated in detail in a feature length article in a following issue of HOME MOVIES. In addition, a certificate evidencing the award of "Movie of the Month" and a special animated "Movie of the Month" leader will be returned with such films after review. When submitting films for review and analysis, please advise make of camera, speed of lens, whether or not tripod was used, or if you used filters, exposure meter, or other accessories. While this information is not essential to obtain analysis of your film, we would like to pass it on for the benefit of other amateurs.
