  • CINERAMA: the First Really Big Show
    CCINEN RRAMAM : The First Really Big Show DIVING HEAD FIRST INTO THE 1950s:: AN OVERVIEW by Nick Zegarac Above left: eager audience line ups like this one for the “Seven Wonders of the World” debut at the Cinerama Theater in New York were short lived by the end of the 1950s. All in all, only seven feature films were actually produced in 3-strip Cinerama, though scores more were advertised as being shot in the process. Above right: corrected three frame reproduction of the Cypress Water Skiers in ‘This is Cinerama’. Left: Fred Waller, Cinerama’s chief architect. Below: Lowell Thomas; “ladies and gentlemen, this is Cinerama!” Arguably, Cinerama was the most engaging widescreen presentation format put forth during the 1950s. From a visual standpoint it was the most enveloping. The cumbersome three camera set up and three projector system had been conceptualized, designed and patented by Fred Waller and his associates at Paramount as early as the 1930s. However, Hollywood was not quite ready, and certainly not eager, to “revolutionize” motion picture projection during the financially strapped depression and war years…and who could blame them? The standardized 1:33:1(almost square) aspect ratio had sufficed since the invention of 35mm celluloid film stock. Even more to the point, the studios saw little reason to invest heavily in yet another technology. The induction of sound recording in 1929 and mounting costs for producing films in the newly patented 3-strip Technicolor process had both proved expensive and crippling adjuncts to the fluidity that silent B&W nitrate filming had perfected.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

  • Hollywood and the Dawn of Television 1
    Foster_ch01_001-010.qxd 1/28/10 1:33 PM Page 1 Hollywood and the Dawn of Television 1 INVENTING TELEVISION Scientists began experimenting with a form of mechanical image scanning in the first years of the twentieth century. By the twenties the term television was being applied to these inventions. No doubt the fledgling movie industry was giving some impetus to this endeavor. Early in the decade two very different inventors began to make major breakthroughs in the development of electronic image scanning, Philo T. Farnsworth and Vladimir Zworykin. Farnsworth was a farm boy from Utah who had won his high school science fair with a diagram for an instrument he called an image dissector. Due to his father’s early demise, Farnsworth was not able to complete his college studies. He was able to interest a few financial backers in supporting his research and opened a small labora- tory in San Francisco in 1926. The following year he applied for a patent for his inven- tion of a primitive television picture tube. Zworykin was an important member of the Russian scientific community when the revolution broke out in 1917. He managed to escape to Paris and, in 1919, settled in Pittsburgh to work in the Westinghouse research laboratories. He was fascinated by the possibilities of television and worked after hours on his own experiments with electronic image scanning. By 1923 Zworykin’s work was sufficiently advanced that he applied for a patent for a camera tube device he called the iconoscope. Westinghouse was not enthused about his work because television was not one of the company’s research priorities but Zworykin continued to labor late into the night after completing his workday for the corporation.
