PREFACE

Оглавление

Table of Contents

In this volume the authors have attempted to lay before the Motion-Picture Operators and Theatrical Employes generally, a reference and handbook making a specialty of electrical requirements about theaters.

A working knowledge of electricity in general is assumed, and therefore elementary ideas have been treated sparingly. A specialty, however, has been made of all matters peculiar to theaters, and it is thought that theater electricians will find in this volume everything that they need whether they be operating motion-picture machines or switchboards in first-class houses.

The two special chapters “Portable Stage Equipment” and “Theater Wiring” have been arranged so that they are particularly valuable for reference. They should be consulted before undertaking any electrical construction work, either for the stage or for the auditorium. These chapters embody all of the practical knowledge that has come to the notice of the authors in many years of actual experience with theatrical construction.

The aim of this volume has been to present in a simple and practical way the essential principles of Motion-Picture Work.
