INDIANA UNIVERSITY PRODUCES
Sound and Motion Pictures
Indiana produces films not comnnercially feasible: here is an animation model being prepared for a State Park film.
Here Is Chucky Lou, star performer of a current Indiana production by that name (for appeal to primary grades).
by Ann Hyer
Acting Supervisor of Production, Audio-Visual Center
INDIANA UNIVERSITY is a relative newcomer in the field of film production. During the rapid progress made within the last two vears, emphasis has l)een on motion pictures, but this coming year we expect to increase greatly the production of slidefilms.
The University film production center serves much ihc same fiuictions as a iniiversitv press. Both of these oiganizations serve to complement the efforts of commercial companies in the spreading of ideas in specialized areas. We at Indiana do not expect to imdertake ])roductions in areas where the volume of sales will be sufficient to warrant production by commercial film production companies.
Three Types of Educational Film Productions
♦ .\t present Indiana University's educational produclions are chiefly of three types:
1. Instructional materials for use in imiversity classes.
2. Film records of research and experiments.
3. Educational materials for state non-profit agencies and organizations.
This program provides actual production experience for graduate interns in photogiaphic. graphic art. and audio areas.
Production equipment is quite limited. Our sound is recorded on discs. We share with the still laboratory a studio which will accommodate small sets, and when sliooiing sync soimd. make similar set-ups in the audio si udio.
Our motion picture etpiipment includes: 1.000 W.. 2,000 W.. and 750 W. Mole Richardson Spots; Cine Special Cameras with a flexible array of magazines and lenses, and a Filmo 70-D Camera with sync motor.
Our editing equipment includes: Craig Viewers, rewinds, a 2 ,gang synchronizer (footage counter) , a foot;ige counter and projectors.
Our sound equipment includes Presto recorders. luiniables and accessorv filters, amplifiers, and tuners.
Films Are Produced by Staff Specialists
♦ Wiiiji the production administrative staff comprises .1 unit in the Audio-Visual Center, most of the personnel actually ])erforming the direct j^roduction activities are not members of this staff. They are members of the ( inematography, still photography, graphic arts, or audio departments who are assigned to various produclion projects as needs arise. When .so assigned, staff members are responsible to the production department
