MOTION PICTURES
Some of the Novelties Secured by Film
Makers.

From the New York Post.
Now that the novelty of the moving
picture has worn off, said a man whose
business is to think up new ideas for the
film makers to a reporter. lit requires
a good deal of ingenuity to show the pub
lie something it hasn't seen before. In
the early days of the business there were
one or two simple tricks that never
failed to fool the average audience. But
nowadays the old tricks won't do
For instance, one of the first stunts
was to take a roll of pictures and then
run it off backwards on the machine. You
would see regiments of soldiers march
ing backwards down the street, and dis
appearing in the distance, or there was
that old standby, the water sports film,
which. when run the wrong way. showed
men rising feet first from the water,
turning somersaults and finally landing
gracefully on the spring boards over
head.
Another reversible film which kept
many people guessing long time was
one which first showed a mass of clay
and then to take form and shape itself
into the likeness of George Washington.
How was it done? Simply by taking a
wax image of the Father of His Coun-
tographs were being licked off. Now
when we ran the film backwards, the
melting process was reversed. But. as /
said. these things don't go down any
longer.
You'd be surprised to know how re-
sourceful some of the photographers are
today. There is a film which has lately
been sent out all over the country that
marks the climax in tho art of motion
picture taking. I don't believe one man
In thousand who sees 1t will have the
least idea how It was done. 1t representa-
the flight of the children Of Israel and
gives the scene where Moses waved his
wand and the Red sea parted.
1.-The man who took that picture spent
70 hours on the Red sea section alone.
He singled out spot on the shore OF
Long Island where there was a sand
bar which was out of water at low tide,
and under water at high. He started at
high tide and took, say, score OF pic
lures of the sea as it looked then. After
Is minutes he reeled off another 20, and
Is minutes later he did the same. Thus
at the end of six hours he had film
showing the changes for every quarter of
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1910-02-27

an hour At the end of that time the
tide had receded SO that the sand bar
could be- seen. Then he called in the
supers and had them walk across the bar
while he took their pictures.
That was only half the work. Later
in the day when the tide began to rise.
he returned and began again TO take a
few pictures every 10 minutes. At the
end of six hours the water had risen to
where 1t was when he began. We had
some doubt as to how the film would
come out; we didn't know whether the
tide, when photographed that way, would
give the desired effect of sea parting
and then closing UP again. But it did
l don't know of any film that looks more
lifelike and wonderful. The waves seem
to rush apart for minute, and then rush
back again, just as described in the Biz

I have seen French marriages on the

to a real one. 1t was the marriage OF a
young Englishman, born and resident in
France with a French young lady, and
the ceremony was performed entirely in
accordance with French custom.
AS the young couple We're of mixed re-
ligons, and the Roman Catholic church
refused to sanction any other religious
ceremony than that by a Romish priest
1t was decided to abandon the original
plan of having the union consecrated at
both the Protestant and Roman Catholic
churches. We all assembled at the house
of the brides mother at 1890 in the morn

In the winter the hogs will be

past records by the demonstrations
they have given during the Interstate

who aided so materially in making
this exhibit possible must be good

Another woman who carried of the
