![]() ![]() ![]() Three microphones (X) placed strategically to cover In projection, another anamorphoscope placed before projector lens expands compressed image to full scale so it appears on screen as shown above, lower right. This compresses image within the full aperture of 35mm film. How CinemaScope works: Panoramic scene of marching Indians at left is photographed with an anamorphoscope wide-view lens in front of camera lens. The wide screen used for CinemaScope is a solid screen having great reflectance, and is curved slightly but not to the extent of the Cinerama screen. Like the Cinerama process, CinemaScope pictures are panoramic and have stereophonic sound. But the result on the screen, which does present an illusion of three-dimension pictures, is said by many to be superior to 3-D films. CinemaScope films do not require the use of viewing spectacles, do not require special dual motion-picture cameras and dual projectors. When the film is projected through a companion lens the distorted image assumes its former normal dimension, just as a trick mirror in a carnival fun house would straighten out its distorted reflections if placed before a mirror having compensating distortions.ĬinemaScope is not stereoscopic movies - not the same as the 3-D films also causing a flurry in Hollywood. A unique lens which restores to its proper proportions an image previously distorted, makes possible the compression onto 35mm film of wide-angle panoramic scenes, and is the basis of the new CinemaScope system of widescreen motion pictures developed in Hollywood by 20th Century-Fox studios. ![]()
