Just arrived in our gallery is this pristine, unmolested, circa 1947 CM-71 Auricon 200′ film capacity newsreel camera. This camera was the 16mm standard of the newsreel industry where an optical soundtrack could be recorded onto the film at the same time moving pictures were photographed. The optical sound internal camera components are complete and intact. ---Photp courtesy of Bill Reiter Cinema Antiques.com

Don't mind me. Just getting a little nostalgic over here.
My heart aches for all the beautiful souls that made this set so great to me and I didn't get a picture with. I need my own series to roll credits for all of you.
But I'll be seeing y'all out there (soon, crossing fingers).

Films to remember

"They Live" (1988)- Famed horror director John Carpenter (Halloween, Escape From New York, The Thing) provides a different twist on alien invasion. Professional wrestler Rowdy Roddy Piper puts in an exceptionally great performance as a drifter who slowly discovers the alien plot to subjugate the human race. The manner in which the aliens overtly take over is disturbing and humorous. We all have experienced the feeling that we are being manipulated and deceived to further the plans of others. This film proves it. 

Best Scene: The five and a half minute long fist fight between Jon (Piper) and Frank (Keith David) over a pair of sunglasses. It is one of the most realistic of all time.

Best Dialogue:     JON (Roddy Piper): I have come here to kick ass and chew bubblegum...and I'm all out of bubblegum.

Back shooting at Walmart again.---Alex Ginzo

Film Crew Slang

Hot Set- After the master shot is complete, everything in view is now "Hot". Don't touch or move anything lest you mess up the continuity of future shots. A chair in the wrong place, a closed book that was previously open, a missing ashtray etc.

Master Shot- We film a master shot to capture all of the key dialogue, action and plot points of a scene. Usually it is a somewhat wide frame (but not always). Once the scene has been established in this way, we can shoot coverage, the many and varied specialty shots to enhance the edit and tell the story.
