Motion Pictures and the University
The motion picture has long been used in connection with university programs of instruction, research and public information. A recent survey of university production facilities shows a remarkable professionalization of equipment, a growing number of films being produced, and the development of a concern, on the part of university administrations, for more and better use of the motion picture in higher education. The long view of university film production shows growth—often associated with the growth of television activities—in a variety of patterns resulting in a variety of kinds of films ranging from the highly technical to the highly creative. The close-up view of the work of the Motion-Picture Division of the Ohio State University's Department of Photography exemplifies the contribution of the university-Produced film to education.
