Of course, there is superb choice of subject matter. There is good editing and titling. But. even more than that, the manner in which the material is set down on film is extremely important. Watch for those luscious scenics, with lazy white cloud puffs floating low, framed beneath droopy palms or through doorways or windors. All are examples of fine composition plus perfect exposure. Now why doesn't the average moviemaker life his travel movies out of the special research. Most of his scenes look like the commercial postcard variety, taken from the same shooting rank amateur class by injecting some of these professional touches into his own reels? Chances are that he is probably in too much of a hurry. He doesn't want to take the time to remain in any one spot long enough even to set up a tripod, to say nothing of checking camera angles and lighting and doing position every other picture taker would choose. Originality of thought and presentation are lacking. It's a good plan to gather together all of the brochures and travel literature on the areas to be visited before starting out to film a travelog. Study the illustrations for subject matter, and then resolve to shoot scenics different from and even better than those pictured. Alert yourself for the unusual. Work the less well-beaten trails for striking picture materialthe market places, the picturesque villages and the people who live there. • See TRAVEL on Poge 55
