Hollywood and the 16 mm. Film

John Beardslee Carrigan

The amateur motion picture movement having reached important proportions without any particular reference to its big brother, the professional motion picture, now finds itself very definitely concerned with the professional through the entry of several of the large producing companies into this new field of film distribution. Conversely, the professional field has for some months shown a very definite interest in the development of the amateur industry. Therefore, it may be helpful toward a mutually pleasant and profitable relationship between these two branches of the motion picture industry, to outline briefly the significant amateur developments which have a bearing on professional activity in this field, as well as to attempt translating these developments and tendencies into possible guides for future action.
