J. to appear in proportion to the miniature, we framed him in the viewfinder so that he was in the position indicated by the ink spot made on the finder when the first exposure was made. Then we reexposed the scene, stopping the lens down so that nothing would register except the flare and the outline of the body. This turned out to be one of our most successful effects, since it showed the lighthouse flashing, the lightning and a man with a flare walking on the beach. While we were on the golf course, we also filmed a shot of a roman candle being fired at some distance, to represent the distress rocket from the ship. Our next problem was to get some actual shots of people coming from the lighthouse in the storm. Luckily we found an outside door in a curved cellar wall that would appear to be the door of the lighthouse, so we carried out lighting equipment and hose lines and, by arranging for a heavy spray to fall on the scene from a platform above the door, we achieved a genuine rain effect. The kerosene flame in the lanterns carried by the characters registered well, although we had Photofloods inside the building, to silhouette the figures as they came out, and kept a general illumination on the scene to bring out the rain in addition to the lightning flashes. We discovered an interesting fact in filming the rain sprays. If lighted from the rear, the shower of water is almost invisible and if lighted from the front only the spray nearest the camera will show, so it was necessary to place plenty of light at the sides and to screen the lights from the lens. Our two other rain sequences with people were handled in much the same way except that, since the scenes were closeups, we used an extra spotlight to increase the light on the faces. The spot was pointed to make the light appear to come from the lantern, which was carefully shown in a scene. In the second of the rain closeups, we wished the character to be seen from the inside of a room as he came out of the storm and pressed his face close to the window to look in. In this case, we turned the hoses to very fine sprays so that the water would be seen flowing down the glass but would not beat hard enough to spoil the clearness of the facial expression. We had to light the face from the outside to represent the lantern as well as from the inside to show more detail. After a number of experiments in an effort to secure a suitable closing atmosphere, we finally arranged a slow fade out on the last scene of the picture. Then we followed with a fade in on the lighthouse beacon flashing in regular rhythm and a shot of what appeared to be swirling waves showing faintly in the darkness and intermittently lighted, corresponding to the lighthouse flashes, the
