17 Photographs courtesy Marine Studios A LONG SHOT of the Oceanarium, one of two huge tanks at Marine Studios, makes a good opening for a feeding sequence. MEDIUM SHOTS of the dynamic action, filmed at normal and slow motion speeds, show grace and power of giant porpoises. CLOSEUPS, with your own youngster acting as guest feeder, will catch the fatuous features of these marine mountebanks. PORTHOLES by the hundreds line the tank walls for underwater pictures. A right angle glass-to-lens position is best. BRILLIANT contrasts and a medium shot as maximum camera distance are filming conditions recommended by Marine Studio experts. Color exposures range f/3.5 to f/1.9, normal speed. THE GIFT SHOP, typical of Marineland's clean tropical design, is a handy source of both raw film and short finished pictures. Polaroid filter is helpful aid in brilliant light.
