Shooting Cinerama

Not me, but I played an extra!

There’s a group of enthusiasts shooting a brand new Cinerama movie – a travelogue about Los Angeles – and today I played an extra around the Griffith Park Merry-go-round.

This is shooting to real film, with a restored Cinerama camera.

The restored camera being loaded with its three magazines.

Got me thinking about how size changes over time, which will lead to another post.
