PART OF THE PROGRAM FOR MARCH
Paul Harmer will do his part in the March issue by presenting the most illuminating article we have yet seen on the subject of "Motion Picture Miniatures."
F. Morris Steadman, the Miracle Man of Light, will be back with "Patterns of Illumination," another masterly study on light that no photographer should miss.
And if the reader happens to be interested in 16 mm. subjects there will be something most attractive in March. Look for this department. It's gonna be good.
Mr. W. Wallace Clendenin, who "pinch hits" this month for Earl Theisen, our brilliant young historical writer on motion picture subjects, will return soon with another article on a timely subject.
Miss May Gearheart, Supervisor of Art in the Los Angeles Schools, will present her interesting article, "Art in Motion Pictures." Because of previous reservations it was necessary to defer the publication of "Art in Motion Pictures" to March.
Augustus Wolfman, editor of our Miniature Camera Department, will offer the third of his extraordinarily fine technical articles. This series by Mr. Wolfman will prove to be a liberal education to the students of the miniature camera.
Our Television Department will have something of unusual merit to offer and, as this is to be a permanent feature of our magazine, it will behoove all interested parties to watch it closely for the latest news. By the way, cameramen would do well to keep their eyes on Television. It may mean jobs some day.
HONOR TO MR. THEISEN
Earl Theisen, Honorary Curator for Motion Pictures of Los Angeles Museum, whose interesting historical sketches have attracted International attention, is absent from our columns this month to permit him to write an article for the League of Nations. The subject will be "Archeology of the Motion Pictures." The article will be published in the International Encyclopedia of the League. Mr. Theisen will be back in the International Photographer in March.
