CHAPTER 4.

In my last chapter I outlined briefly
the most essential principles and
workings of the motion picture camera
as it operates to-day. With this es-
tablished in advance, the reader can
better follow and appreciate the un-
firing patience with which the early
experimenters worked toward it's per-
lection 1t is a tideous and often obs
cure period Much of the work was
tested, revised unnumerably and final
ly consumated in the dark. The great
public was scarcely cogniZant of it,
cared little and offered of encourage
ment none.
Looking back at it, we can penetrate
behind the scenes but infrequently
However, those few glimses are we'll
worth the scrutiny. Theirs are all the
high light and the pulsating courage
of genuine romance.
AS l have previously suggested, the
| first motion picture photographers
were limited in their endeavors to un-
wieldy and bulky glass plates. This
Immediately impoverished the posi-
bilities of their apparatus. But they
made the best of what they had
The first device to receive passing
notice was designated as a photo
graphic gun Although it's operation
and consequently usefulness was de
cidedly limited in its extent, it was
nevertheless, an ingenious conception
and credit to it's inventor Dr. E.
Marcy
In his camera or gun, the doctor
used one large circular glass plate
that fastened into a cylindrical plate
| holder. AS the camera was operated
! the plate holder revolved very mucl
as the cylinder of Alkali Ike's six
shooter Each ierky step forward II
the revolution brought a new section
of unexposed plate in front of the lens
and carried the preceding section
now exposed, safely away into thu
dark and impenetrable regions of tn
camera. When the revolution wa
completed and the plate developed
it's entire outer edge was borderet
about with a series of small photo
graphs (their size being regulated b.
the adjustment of the lens) which
followed each other in close success
sion
Marcy devised this photograph
