We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.
The Director
The actress stood up. "I see what you mean," she said. "I can do it now."
Realizing then the emotional reactions required of her, she was magnificent in her final attempt at the scenes in which she had formerly failed. Those scenes raised her to stardom, and during her career on the screen she was an acknowledged leader in flawless emotional acting. In such methods of lifting a player to higher, greater interpretative levels, one finds one of the many valuable contributions of the director.
The unit manager is responsible for the business details of a production, but he is seldom on the set. He keeps ahead of the director by inspecting sets in process, spacing them so that thev are ready when needed. This prevents waste in stage space. He arranges transportation of food, supplies, and personnel. He makes certain that actors working in other productions will be ready for a call to his picture on specific days. He works closely with the assistant director and usually he has been one.
On the other hand, the assistant director seldom leaves the set. He is by the side of the director every minute of a working day. He is always the first to appear in the studio, the last to leave. When large crowds must be sent "on location," he may arrive at the studio at 4:00 a. M. and finish his work at midnight.
Weeks before a picture starts he, in collaboration with the unit manager, "breaks down" a scenario into its special requirements for wardrobe, actors, both principals and minor players, settings, properties, make-up, lighting, cameras, sound equipment, and locations.
