AUDITORIUM WEDNESDAY

Bara superpicture, Cleopatra, will
hardly realize the ingenuity and the
skill. and the outlay of money re-
CURED to erect the massive and gOr-
geous settings that appear in this
great picture drama.
What is all the more remarkable
is the fact that under the wonderful
and able generalship Of Director j..
Gordon Edwards, who has been Miss
Theda Bara's director in all the pic
lures she has appeared in in the past
year, finished this production in little
over nine weeks a record never be
fore attained for the filming OF a 10
reel photodrama, and in which be-
tween 10000 and $4,000 people were
used I'm various capacities, and in
some scenes where 5000 and 5000
men and women were handled In
one day.
In going over the various mechan-
ical and technical details that honey
comb the production Of a great film
play. one would marvel how engeni-
ously the members of the technical
departments can overcome almost
any ouSldtlts M ludllcI What may
occur 10 upset certain set plans, the
film engineers go about relieving the
condition in the most matter-o of fact
way, and in the quickest time pos
slble. without giving a thought TO the
intricacies of the matter they are up
against.
At the birth of the moving picture
industry is. the birth of the
great feature picture-it was con-
sidered indeed marvellous achieve
ment if a 10-reel production was

finished in less than year. But mat
ters today have progressed TO such
an extent that a great feature film
involving the outlay Of hundreds of
! thousands of dollars, and the en-
ployment of thousands Of people. has
been systematized 10 such an extent
that thousands of scenes can be en-
| bodied in a big production in a little
over two months, which is an
achievement in itself.
About two months before the
scenes were TO be taken of this
Theda Bara superpicture. Cleo
patra", William Fox called in for
consultation the heads Of his various
dramatic and technical departments
and outlined in every detail the ire
mendous spectacular "sets" which
were TO embellish this picture. He
insisted that everything connected
with this picture must be absolutely
historically correct in every detail
and when Mr.. Fox's subordinates
heard this commend from their chief
they knew that he meant it.
The result is plainly seen in the
great and massive sets, depicting
the Roman senate. CleOpatra's pal
ace at Alexandria, the Sphinx, the
Pyramids. the Palace OF Tarsus and
the wonderful naval fleet of Oc-
tavius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra.
on these various sets" there were
employed more than thousand
Observation-Disclosures, technical men.
carpenters, mOdelers, boatbuilders
and representatives Of almost every
trade imaginable.
The Roman senate set required
a pretentious building OF massive
columns, entablatures and rich deco
rations. The city of Los Angeles was
searched for a model Corinthian
capital of monumental proportions.
A suitable one was found. and using
the diameter OF this as a unit, the
whole building was determined as 10
scale.
AS In all moving picture cOnstruc-
ton. . light framework was built.
according to exact dimensions, and
each part bore a certain definite re-
lation 10 the others. This frame
work was covered in the usual
method OF construction, consisting
OF light sheeting. burlap and plaster.
Then the scenic articts treated the
surface to represent granite blocks.
Trees and shrubbery placed at the
proper angles and corners of the
building finished the picture.
The next big set" to be erected
was that of the Sphinx and the ad-
jacent pyra ;nids, and Director J.
Gordon Edwards insisted that the
Sphinx and the pyramids be an ex-
act replica Of those that stand on the
hot Egyptian sands. Il was a com
partively easy matter 10 get all the
data OF the measurements OF these
historical monuments, but il was
another matter TO erect the Sphinx
and pyramids and have them look
as they did look in the time of Cleo
patra. when they were not so married
by the passing Of hundreds OF years.
A location was found up at Ok
rard. consisting Of sand as far as the
eye could see, and an ideal place for
the erecting of this scene. Following
the dimensions given in various
books. the Sphinx was built 40 feet
high and so feet long.
