Script Girls Also Help.
DARAMoUNT has doubled the mum

PARAMOUNT has doubled the num-
n Der of its script girls.
This was necessitated because 1t Is
important that the director should have
complete notes on every scene filmed.
No one girl could do all the work.
One girl now handles the dialogue, the
other the properties and business" The
dialogue girl has charge of the dialogue
script, making shorthand notes of every
word spoken in each take" of q scene
and also acting as prompter at rehear-
sails. Often word or two Is changed
from take to take. and the director must
know what take was changed.
The second script girl keeps full de-
scriptions OF the scenes, noting any pc
culiarities of dress, the location of all
properties, the movements of the play
ers. A week later she might have to
tell the director in which hand Eleanor
Boardmsn was carrying a handbag or
Row far Paul Lukas' handkerchief was
sticking out Of his pocket in scene B-30
OF Women Love Once She also keeps
track of all the scene filmed so that
the director will not overlook any of
thems
Without script girls the director might
be shooting in the derk, for directors
are so forgetful.
