- Abstract
- Motion picture technology is predominantly focused on photographic and other processes for recording action and sound. Few papers1 have been contributed dealing with other technical activities pursued with commensurate skill, inventiveness and constantly expanding knowledge of materials and processes in Hollywood studios. Set construction and special effects present an amazing variety of problems little known or even suspected by outsiders as concerning motion picture production. This paper attempts a description of materials and techniques applying to set construction and special effects. Emphasis is placed on pointing out present technology, desirable improvements and possible developing trends.
