The Photographic Aspects of Television Operations

Harry R. Lubcke

Television utilizes certain elements of operative photography. In live-subject presentations these include composition, focus, contrast range, intra-image contrast of one object from another, dolly shots, panning, and certain aspects of lighting. — In television, operative maneuvers must be quickly and smoothly executed. The camera in question may be supplying the outgoing image at the time in question, or, if not, it should rapidly be made available for change in camera angle on the program. — The equipment and technic evolved at W6XAO to meet these requirements during several years of telecasting are described.
