PHOTOPLAY VS. AND
PHOTOGRAPHERS
Photopldy Developed
AS Separate Art
Is Present Need,
Says Writer 4
BY QARDNER MACH.

II is becoming the opinion OF
those engaged in the motion picture
industry that they are dealing with
an entirely new form Of expression
that Is not part OF anything else
that has ever existed and that
branches off In an entirely different
direction from any other form OF
expheEsion. That II needs now, more
than anything else. a set OF people
who can write, or prepare from
what others write: photoplsys along
the lines that win permit the utilisa-
tlon OF hitherto undeveloped forces,
IL likewise the opinion Of those who
are thoughtfully engaged in build
Ing pp the industry. t't
A few days ago an editor. OF one
OF the big photopiay publications.
and the head OF one OF the big COM
panies producing films were lunch
ing together and the producer said
he would willingly pay as much as
$4,000 per year and awe free rein
TO man who could sin the Job OF
scenario editor for his company. The
editor was surprised at the vehem-
and was still more surprised when
the producer told him he didn't be-
lieve there was a man In the coun-
try, as yet, who had developed TO
the point of being n good scenario
editor. Further than this he said his
company's bid for the services OF
such man was but one OF many
some OF which might go as high as
the salary OF the President of the
United Statesi
This condition OF the motion pic
ture business Is more or less reflect
ed In a statement attributed to MISS
Margaret Turnout, tbb novelist anu
playwright, who has been trying her
hand at photoplay writing during
tine past year. Miss Turnbull is n
sister of Hector Turnbull, who was
formerly dramatic editor of the New
fsrk Tribune, and is now the head
of the l.asky scenario forces. Miss
Turnbull declares that the photo
play must be an original story nova
days, 80
who had written considerable for the
stage that writing a photoplay Was
TO be something like a vacation.
But how mistaken such an idea
was, ana particularly how mistaken
such an idea Is at the present time.
when the demands OF motion picture
audiences are becoming more ana.
more severe for the very highest
kind OF work.
mo one within the motion picture
industry has any illusions now as 10
the stability of the future OF the art
and as TO the channels along which
the photoplay will develop. In the
mad dash through literature OF all
ages the supply OF material drawn
from other sources. such as the
stage and book shelves, Is being
rapidly depleted. Everyone knows
this. But the motion picture indus
d, try. with that same far-sightedness
which has marked other inward de-
velopments. IL preparing for the next
step I'm the photcplaV. which is the
original story, simple In motive ana
emotions, but brilliant In invention
and conception.
with this transition will come q,
greater development OF the photo
play as IL will then absolutely d.,
vorce itself from any other art and
stand for itse---.
1T is quite different from any
other kind of writing. | frequently
wonder II my experiences win
photoplays are the same as others
who have taken to writing for mo-
ton pictures" ..f q. NJ.
