Abstract
A complete treatment of the subject of lighting of motion picture studios requires a consideration of many factors and involves a knowledge of photometry, visual sensitometry, and photographic sensitometry. A large amount of the information necessary for the intelligent use of artificial illumination for photographic purposes is available in the literature, but in many cases this it not commonly known nor is the method of applying this information to practical problems well understood. It seems worth while, therefore, to treat the entire subject in a rather general and complete manner, to outline the fundamental relations between the various factors of the problem, to present some of the available information bearing on various phases of the subject, and to indicate methods of utilizing the available data in practical problems. Such a treatment, it is hoped, will be valuable not only as a summary of our present knowledge of the subject but also as a means of indicating the phases upon which additional experimental work and more complete quantitative data are desirable.
