[motion picture] Provides a tour of the great plains area and covers the spring wheat belt, the range livestock belt, the corn belt, the wheat belt, the cotton belt, oil fields, and Edwards Plateau. Gives particular attention to Amarillo, Texas to show the pattern of growth for many cities of the southern plains region.
[motion picture] Describes the globe as a model of the earth, showing how the globe represents physical and cultural features on the earth's surface, and provides information about direction, distance, size, and location. Points out the poles, the equator, and scales of latitude on a globe.
Shows how to select the tool for the job; how to set up the job; how to calculate speed, feed, and depth of cut; how to machine on a lathe, using a single-point carbide tool; and how to correct unsatisfactory machining.
Indiana University, Bloomington. Audio-Visual Center
Summary:
Explains the process of editing motion picture footage in double system synchronous sound motion picture production. Follows, through use of flashbacks, the step-by-step sequences from the use of a clapstick to establish synchronization cues during shooting; the use of this visual-auditory signal to re-establish synchronization for each "take" during editing; means of permanently marking these head synchronization points; to the usefulness of the gang synchronizer and means of establishing internal synchronization points. Animation is employed to illustrate maintenance of synchronization in cutting from one take to another and means of elimination of unwanted sound in the sound track.
Presents the story of a goldfish from spawning until the goldfish is sold to a child. Begins at the world's largest goldfish hatchery. Introduces the main character, Goldey, developing inside a goldfish egg and follows his growth. Shows the goldfish's appearance, size, natural habitat, food, and adjustment to a home aquarium environment. Provides story-telling material through a dream sequence involving Goldey and Silvey, a silver fantail.
Points out exterior structure and coloration of a living perch. Uses fresh specimens to show dissection techniques and reveal internal structures. The respiratory, digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems are removed and examined. the head is opened. The olfactory tract and brain are studied. Heart action is observed in a freshly killed specimen. The circulatory system is outlined. Further areas of investigation are suggested.
Uses animation and laboratory demonstrations to explain the formation of ions in ionization and the effects ions produce. Presents hydrochloric acid as a typical electrolyte that ionizes in water permitting the solution to conduct an electric current. The polarity of the water molecule is illustrated and valance, electrovalance, and the effect of ionization on the boiling and freezing points of solutions are explained.
Shows how flat and three-dimensional materials are framed by the passe partout method, using a transparent cover, a mat, a cardboard backing and binding tape. Demonstrates with animation and life photography the detailed step-by-step procedures for framing a picture and for mounting and framing a Cecropia moth. Includes suggestions for displaying and filling materials mounted with the passe partout method.
Traces the history of jet and rocket engines and diagrams the principles on which they operate. Begins with Hero's model of a steam jet and continues by showing simplified uses of the principle in a rocket toy, a balloon, and a lawn sprinkler. Further diagrams the operation of the reaction engine in a ramjet pulsejet, and turbojet. Shows a cutaway of a turbojet engine and explains its modifications with a ramjet afterburner or a turbo prop. Points out that the difference between jet and rocket engines is that the rocket carries its own oxygen enabling it to fly outside the atmosphere.
Asks questions about food sources for plants, and uses coleus to illustrate foodmaking in green plants. Uses cinephotomicrography and animation to show the process of photosynthesis. The phenomenon of the conversion of light energy to chemical energy is noted. Carnivores, parasites and saprophytes are each defined and illustrated. Points out that all animals depend upon some form of plant life for food.
Dramatizes the experiences of three beginning student teachers. Suggests getting well acquainted with the school, its personnel, and its policies; becoming accustomed to handling routine classroom matters; becoming familiar with a wide variety of instructional materials, their preparation, and their use; and learning as much as possible about the pupils.
Presents the proper methods for dissection of the frog in order to observe its anatomy. Indicates the structures which can be observed by opening the mouth. Depicts proper incisions to make in order to lay skin and muscle layers aside and how to tie off the abdominal vein before cutting it. The location and structure of the digestive system are examined. The urinary system is identified along with the reproductive systems in both the male and female frogs. The heart and circulatory systems are pictured; and muscles tendons, and nerves of the hind legs are shown. The top of the skull is removed and the brain and other parts of the nervous system are shown.
Pictures fraternity activities before, during, and after pledging. Emphasizes the pleasures and responsibilities of fraternity life and points out how all fraternities on a college campus cooperate in joint activities. Shows how the brotherhood of the fraternity helps each individual member to become a better person and presents a college president who cites the values he received from his college fraternity. Stresses the importance of fraternity membership in guiding academic, moral, and social development. Filmed on the Indiana University campus with comments by President Herman B Wells.
[motion picture] Presents briefly the theory of operation of the photoelectric exposure meter and gives illustrations of how it can be intelligently used to solve exposure problems. Practical use of the meter is shown in handling exposure problems relating to: scenes with extreme brightness ranges, achieving accurate flesh tones, copying, taking incident light readings, establishing lighting ratios, setting lights for a pre-determined f/stop, using a gray and white card, making substitute readings, and selecting from the various f/stop and shutter speed combinations either to achieve a desired depth of field or stop subject-motion. Throughout the Weston Master III meter is used for demonstration.
[motion picture] Features the internal anatomy of fresh fetal pig specimens by systems, to illustrate techniques of dissection for studying the anatomy of a mammal. Shows fetal pigs within a uterus. Next, the internal anatomy is examined; then, the abdominal cavity is exposed and internal organs pointed out. Shows both the female and male reproductive systems. Organs of the neck and thoracic cavity are exposed and identified. The arterial and venous systems are followed and major structures indicated. Finally, the skull is removed and the parts of the brain and their respective functions are discussed.
Shows how to heat carbon-steel tools for forge sharpening; how to sharpen, harden, and temper a plowshare; how to sharpen, harden, and temper a cultivator shovel; and how to identify tempering colors.
Describes briefly the arduous processes by which the early settlers ground corn in their homes and focuses on the construction and operation of large water-powered mills. Shows farmers bringing their sacks of corn by horseback to the miller who, for a portion of the flour, grinds the grain to the desired texture, while the farmers catch up on the latest news. Explains the miller's activities as he goes through each step of the grinding process.
Through illustrations, shows high school and college students learning the use of various safety devices, rules, and procedures. Each illustration points out that the student should follow the directions given, should use the tools of chemistry properly, and should consult with the instructor when in doubt.
