Teen Age Filmen (The following reports show the increased activity in the field of schoolproduced films, indicating that many other schools may find that films produced with their own facilities would be useful as part of their specific and local educational programs.) Cleveland — Maroon and Gold, a school-made film of the Cleveland public schools has been honored with showing at an international meeting at Paris, France, according to John Borza, head cf the Photographic Division of the school system. The film was selected to show the activities of a typical American high school. Maroon and Gold is a 3 5 -minute field trip through John Adams high school and traces a year's activities beginning with the football season and ending with graduation day. Script of the film was prepared by pupils and teachers of John Adams working together. Photography ?nd final editing was done by the Cleveland division of visual education. The film is in demand by civic groups and is also shown in junior high schools to help orient them to high school life. Two other Cleveland films of this type have been made by John Hay and West Technical high schools. These films are among the many pictures that have been produced by the Cleveland schools within recent years. It is the belief of the audio-visual department that there are many subjects that schools must make for themselves if they are to be made at all, since professional producers could not afford to dc the job unless hundreds of prints of a subject can be sold. "It is up to the schools to make these films," says Borza. "For comparatively little money the schools can purchase enough equipment, a camera, editor, a few lights, and some cable to start making films. As time goes on, more and more equipment can be added. Such a school film unit can draw on teachers and pupils for all the help needed from writing the script, operating the camera, moving lights, constructing sets, selecting music, doing the art work, to writing and giving the narration. It becomes a cooperative project where a great deal of learning takes place." Rather than being competition to the professional field, the Cleveland school movie-makers believe that if the schools do not make certain subjects they will never be produced. The commercial producers for the most part realize that school production tends to stimulate the use of the non-competitive product that he has to offer. Among the many films recently produced by the teachers and pupils of the Cleveland schools are: How to Ktin a Lathe (Department of Industrial Arts) ; Children Grow in Gardens (Department of School Gardens); We Do Like Fun (Division of Visual Education). Borza also reports another film project, an all-color film that depicts every phase of the Cleveland public schools. Film emphasizes the organization of the schools, showing such steps as the election of the board members and the work of the various school departments. A 16mm film showing high school activities has been produced, according to Miss Marretta Darsie, A-V secretary' of the Cleveland Heights (Ohio) pubhe schools. Purpose of the film is to show new classes the range of courses available to them. "Many of our earlier films circulated to other school systems and colleges when not in use in our own school system," Miss Darsie said. "Because of the number of requests, however, and the fact that we have only one copy of each fi'm, we have had to restrict their use to our own schools." We plan to continue making these films as the need for them develops." Titles of silent films produced by the schools include The Child Creates, Growing Things, Insects and How to Collect Them, Playways for Posture, Protection for Florida Birds, War Activities, A Week at School Camp, and Winter Birds. Two new 16mm teaching films have been completed, according to Holger H. Van Aller, adviser of the Photo Club of Saratoga Springs (New York) high school. One film deals with marine life and the other is a variety reel devoted to both insects and flowers. "Our students have made one 40minute silent film depicting the four years of a student's life in school," Van Aller said. "This was a supplementary project of our Senior Class of 1948, financed and with most of the vork done by them. We added a wire recording to accompany the film — the recording being made the evening of the presentation. "The photo club with its projection section has taken films of all the football games — primarily for the coach for teaching purposes. The films of a Saturday game are returned for diagnostic use of the following Monday or Tuesday. Students at North Division high school (Milwaukee, Wise.) saw the 178
