SPECIAL
EFFECTS
AND
TRICKS
THE
many
unique features
of
the Cine-K
odak
Special make
it
a
most
flexible
instrument
for
the
production
of
unusual films.
Whether
special
effects are needed
to
convey ideas and impressions
or
trick shots are
desired
to
make
your
films
outstanding,
this camera
will
prove itself
capable
of
the
most varied and exacting tasks.
About
the
on
ly
limit
on
the
variety
of
motion
pictures this camera
can produce is
the
limit
of
the
user's
imagination
and ingenuity. We
cannot
hope
to
describe
the
great
number
of
feats made possible by
different combinations
of
the
Special's features plus various selections
of
subjects.
The
main purpose
of
the
effects and tricks described below
is
to
bring
to
your
mind
other
ideas; feats
that
will
be
new
and
origina
l
with
you and
that
have never been filmed before.
Important;
In
all
multiple
exposure
work
the
camera must be locked
on a
rigid
tripod
to
insure accurate registration
of
each successive
image recorded.
Be
sure
to
have
the
shutter
closed
when
the
film is
wound
back.
If
you have
inadvertently
wound
up
the
motor
and find
that
you
cannot
wind back, run
down
the
motor
with
film chamber removed,
as
de-
scribed on page 54.
The
individual frame counter described on page
50
will
be found very
useful
when
photographing
many
of
these special effects and tricks.
DISSOL
VING-OUT
OBJECTS
WITHIN
A
SCENE
By
MEANS
of
the
dissolve,
it
is possible to have an object or person
slowly disappear from a scene,
but
with
the
rest
of
the
setting
remain-
ing
as
before.
I,
To
make such a
shot,
photograph
the
scene
with
the
object present.
"Fade-out" on
the
scene (page 45). Wind
the
film back
as
for a dissolve
(page 47) and remove
the
object from the camera field.
"Fade-in"
on
the same scene,
but
without
the
object.
