The Three Movie Makers
1968
Cat no. 4139
Animation promoting the Kodak cine camera.
A cartoon about three cine camera owners who each believes his own model to be the best: a proud owner of a 'Bolegs' (Bolex), a German enthusiast with his 'Eumog' (Eumig) and a novice with a simple little 'Kodeg' (Kodak). The movie maker with the simple, wind-up Kodak camera with manual settings wins the Amateur Cine World `oscar' (the Ten Best) for his film of `the fight of the century' - a playful reference to the fisticuffs that ensues between the other camera owners in the film.
