- Abstract
- The paper discusses production of 16-mm “expository” films—those which explain or instruct. The most important factor involved is the advance planning of an adequate presentation of the subject matter. A direct, simple method of production planning has been evolved and is described, pointing out pitfalls which the beginner should avoid. A shooting-script form, which serves the producer as a combined scenario, shooting script, and editing reference, is described and illustrated. Experience indicates that the teacher or expert who is to guide the production of a training film should give his particular attention to building up a concept; avoiding overextended commentation; having the visual demonstration coincide with the soundtrack explanation; showing no action that is unexplained, or no explanation unaccompanied by action; timing the delivery of the commentation; using the full power of the camera; and to treating the audience as an individual novice about to receive instructions through motion pictures.
