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.

To be of service, this book should be regarded as a text book, to be studied. It is not to be read through once. It must be absorbed. It suppHes the information necessary to the writing of photoplays, but the individual must learn to apply the information for himself and in his own manner. The Second Edition has been accepted as standard in many studios both here and abroad, .and has been recommended by practically everyone in authority. It is the hope of the writer that this Third Edition will be found even more helpful because of its arrangement. It is offered with sincere good wishes to those who aim to take up the writing of photoplays, but they are reminded that success must come through their own work and effort and not through the purchase of a book. And lastly I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to the Honorable Frank K. Shaw, to whose suggestion this new form is partly due and to whom I am indebted for much practical and helpful advice. Epes Winthrop Sargent. Waterville, Maine, 1916.
