LIGHT SOUND DIFFUSED 1965.mov

IT WAS JANUARY 1965 IN NYC AND I WAS WORKING AS PRODUCTION MANAGER FOR AN ITALIAN FEATURE BEING SHOT IN THE USA, UNA MOGLIE AMERICANA (AN AMERICAN WIFE), STARRING UGO TOGNAZZI & RHONDA FLEMING. ONE WEEKEND I "BORROWED" THE CAMERA AND SHOT THIS 5 1/2 MINUTE SHORT, LIGHT SOUND DIFFUSED (LSD).

DAVE LAMBERT OF LAMBERT, HENDRICKS AND ROSS (VOTED BEST VOCAL GROUP IN THE DOWN BEAT MAGAZINE READERS POLL FROM 1959 TO 1963) COMPOSED AND PLAYED THE SCORE.

THE ANAMORPHIC (CINEMASCOPE) LOOK IS THE RESULT OF THE 35MM TECHNISCOPE CAMERA, POPULAR IN THE '60's & '70's LOW BUDGET WORLD, ESPECIALLY IN ITALY. USING A TWO PERF RATHER THAN A FOUR PERF PULL DOWN SYSTEM TECHNISCOPE GAVE YOU 200 FEET OF PRINT FROM 100 FEET OF NEGATIVE.
THIS WAS A BIG COST SAVINGS. AND IT USED STANDARD SPHERICAL LENSES RATHER THAN THE MORE EXPENSIVE ANAMORPHIC LENSES.
GOOGLE TECHNISCOPE FOR MORE DETAILS.
