Theater Television

During the Years 1944, 1945, and 1946, the Theater Television Committee of the SMPE worked on many of the various engineering problems related to placing television in the motion picture theater. Considerable time and effort were expended in collecting information on such subjects as existing theater architecture, available projection equipment, picture quality to be expected, and many other problems which would be of interest to the motion picture industry if it intended to use this new medium. Also during these years, Paul J. Larsen, together with other representatives of the Society, appeared before the Federal Communications Commission and succeeded in obtaining for the motion picture industry frequency allocations for theater-television use on an experimental basis only.
