Technical Activities of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences

Irving Thalberg

In the latter part of 1929, the Board of Directors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, acting at the suggestion of the Producers' Branch, launched two major projects for the general technical benefit of the production industry. The first of these projects was the establishment of a school for the education of studio personnel in the fundamentals of sound recording and reproduction. The second was the organization of a Producers-Technicians Committee for the conduction of a group of new technical activities.
