Camera Works
Wonders in Film,
peter Ibbets0n"
-Four Hundred Double Expo
sures,' the Split Stage and
'Oblique Dissolve Employed.

A new record is said to have been set
Tor dinicult photography by paramount's
screen production OF Peter Ibbetson 4"
based on Du Maurier's novel, which
comes soon to the Criterion. Never be-
fore IN the history of motion pictures, 50
iar as can be learned. has there been a
picture where 30 many double exposures
were employed. The average picture. IL
lts story calls for double exposures.
usually has less than score of such
scenes and very few photoplays have
shown more than q hundred scenes in
this manner. The number In Peter
Ipbetson" totals about 400.
All three forms of double exposures
are used to tell the dream story Of
Peter and Mimsey-the split stage. the
transparent exposure and the oblioue
dissolve. or these the first Is the
implest--one-half Of &he Aim In the
camera is masked with a brass disk.
while the other half is exposed with the
character to bo double exposed in posi-
ton. When the required number of
feet OF hlm Is exposed the character
reverses his position. the film is re-
wound and the mask is changed to cover
the exposed half OF the aim. Then tho
scene Is shot" again. In this manner
scenes arc made In which the same pcr-
son Is seen talking TO his other self.
In the second method--where the char
acters appear as ghosts OF TRANSPARENT
figures on the screen--a different process
is used The scene in which the charac-
ters are to appear IL photographed In
the usual manner. II 1t is an exterior
scene--a wood. for instance. In which a
spectre Is to appear---the Aim Is ex-
posed. the height Of the camera from
tho ground Is measured, and the dis
tance from the spot where the figure Is
supposed to appear is taped on, Tho
nlm Is rewound In the camera and the
character that Is to be shown in trans
parent form IL put in front Of black
velvet curtain in the studio and after
the distance and the height OF the
camera is measured the film IL exposed
again. When the picture is shown on
the screen of the theatre the figure ap-
pears as ghost walking through the
wood.
The third method--the oblique dis
soive--is made by the use of a dissolve
"achihe winch IL fastened to the camera
In front OF the iris. With this machine
any part OF the film can be exposed. II
is In this manner that scenes which show
characters telling OF their childhood or
past adventures are made---the second
picture begins in the corner OF tho nlm
and gradually fades over the entire
screen. This Is the most difflcult method
and is the one most used in Peter
Ibbetson." by this means the Duchess
Of Towers. played by Miss Elsie Fergu-
son. and Peter I6betson, Wallace Reld's
role. are shown dreaming of the Pas
uuier garden In France and OF their
childhood days together. and OF their
dream honeymoon In Venice and Algeria

"EI Goll1rdo isn't the easiest part I
ever played" Otis Skinner told a
NEW YoRK HERALD reporter who visited
him in his dressing room at the Empire
Theatre the other day, where he is now
appearing as the bull fighter In "Blood
and Sand Maybe he isn't the hardest,
but am sure he isn't the easiest You
see. bull fighting Is something entirely
outside my experfence-just as It is out
side the experience Of every real Ameri-
can. No one but real Spaniard or =
man with Spanish blood could be a good
torero--a bull fighter-and. take II
from me as an experienced actor II is
mighty hard to play q role that II Is in
conceivable that you could by any
chance play In real life.
THAT Is why I went to Spain last
summer. I wanted to saturate myself
with Spanish atmosphere-if you will
pardon me the use Of that much abused
word. That is why. too. have ell these
relics Of my visit to Spain about me
here In my dressing room. They help
me to retain the Impressions, the new
feelings acquired there.

for me at the cathedral. They are all
very old, I am told, and each has some
special significance which I can't re-
member. But II helps me immensely in
getting inside the skin OF Ell GdHGrdo,
because 1t seems to me like q genuine
bit of Spain itself and II carries me
back there in my imagination.

Scores of Fine Steamers Ready to Steam Forth

NEW YORK, Sept 12.-Scores Of fine ships equipped for any kind of cargo are swinging impatiently al anchor, like hunting dogs on leash in every port of the world awaiting return of normal conditions in mari time business.
 Excessive war time construction of cargo carriers followed by grad ually increasing depression in worlds shipping business, has created a new problem for port officers and steam ship owners. A few years ago keen loading or discharging berth.
 Today the competition is to secure a safe and convenient place where ships may be laid up at the least possible overhead expense where they can be ready for instant response to steam and propeller when commerce again calls.
 In New York and vicinity the task Of finding safe anchorage falls to Captain Byron l.. Reed. of the U s. Coast Guard service, designated by the government as port captain.
 Yonkers has been called upon to serve as resting places for idle ships. In Jamacia Bay, a large semiinland body Of water at the sOutherly end Of Long Island many more ships have been accommodated. Up Long Island sound as far as the Connecticut line, every available bay having sufficient depth of water has been called upon.
 Companies having a number of ships laid up endeavor to group them They are moored close togeth- CT and one of the vessels is designat. ed as a mother ship" As a pro- lection against fire steam is kept up and lines of hose are laid. from her pumps to each of the otheR craft. On the mother ship crew of 10 or l2 is maintained with a single watch man for the other vessels.
 It is not only Ameffcan ships which are laid up in United States harbors, Captain Reed said. but many foreign craft are held here in idleness await ing a resumption of business that will afford paying cargoes Among recent applications -Sbr anchorage were requests for two Japanese ships
