Already his brain was at work upon the technique of picture production, formulating a system which should as far as possible eliminate the risk of failure because of the handicaps under which he must work. Having to be his own camera-man, and to work without an assistant, piled high the burden of work and responsibility; but he could not afford to pay the salaries such assistants would demand.
At the first alarm of fire one of the directors wakened us and we jumped into our clothes and were whisked in an automobile to the scene of the conflagration. The camera-man was already there and, while we had to dodge the fire-fighters and the hose men, both Flo and I managed to be 'saved from the flames' by some of our actors not once, but several times."
There are such days, you know everything goes wrong, and even the patient camera-man loses his temper. "Yes, Marie, you may bring the tea tray. I am exhausted; nothing but tea will revive this fainting pilgrim. "And, my dear!" she added, turning to Nan again, "I have news for you news of those runaway girls." "Oh, Madam! Are Sallie and Celia found?" cried Nan. "I want so to make Mrs.
He sought the last resort of those persecuted by critics: "Maybe you can do better yourself!" "Well, I hope I choke if I can't," Garfinkel said as he passed the manuscript to the camera-man and summoned Kedzie to his embrace. "Here, Miss What's-your-name, git to me." Kedzie slipped into his clutch, and he took her as if she were a sheaf of wheat. His arms loved her lithe elasticities.

Dewitt had heard something of Luck's efforts since their last meeting; and although he admired Luck the more for his loyalty, he felt quite certain that now he was convinced of his defeat, Luck would hesitate no longer over stepping into the official shoes of Robert Grant Burns, who was lying on his broad back, and shouting pitifully futile commands to his company and asking an imaginary camera-man questions which were as Greek to the soft-footed nurse.
I can see the camera-man off at one side, turning the crank." "Cracky!" exclaimed Tom, grinning, "I thought that was a fellow with a hand-organ, and I was looking for the monkey." "Monkey, yourself," cried his sister, gaily. "Didn't know but that he was playing for those 'crazy creeters' as your Aunt Alvirah would call them, Ruthie to dance by," went on Tom. "Come on!

Some movie-merchant had got a graft with the Government, and troops had been turned out to make a war film. It occurred to me that if I were mixed up in that push I might get the cover I was looking for. I scurried down the hill to the nearest camera-man. As I ran, the first wave of troops went over the top.
Even A. Jones smiled indulgently upon the irate manager, who was now fairly bristling with indignation. "The Corona people," remarked Arthur Weldon, "are quite enterprising. I did not know they had a camera-man at the beach yesterday, but he must have secured a very interesting picture. It was not posed, Mr. Goldstein, but taken from life."
