Timeline
President American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) 1951-53.
President American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) 1948-50.
Moto and Charley Chan series pictures to action films (Guadalcanal Diary (1943)) to folksy outdoor pictures (Thunderhead: Son of Flicka (1945) and Smoky (1946)) to big CinemaScope musicals (Stars and Stripes Forever (1952)).
In 1938 he went back to Fox--now 20th Century-Fox--and, with few exceptions, stayed there for the rest of his career, working on everything from the studio's low-budget Mr.
He worked steadily on virtually every type of film, from serials at the independents to big splashy musicals and epics at the major studios (he shot all of the China location footage and much of the studio work for MGM's The Good Earth (1937), although he didn't get screen credit for it).
He did much work for Fox Films in the 1930s, then went over to MGM for a few years.
In 1928 he and a crew were sent to Alaska to shoot some background footage for a film to be made about Eskimos. During their stay they became lost on the Arctic tundra and wandered with little food and water for ten days before they were finally spotted by a rescue plane. They was unable to sleep during that period, because of snow blindness and the fear that if they went to sleep they would freeze to death, and in his autobiography he stated that the experience so unnerved him that for the rest of his life he was never able to get a good night's sleep.
In 1922 he was invited to a demonstration of a new three-dimensional projection process in which a theater was equipped with two special projectors. Each seat in the theater had a flexible shaft arrangement, at the end of which was a shutter contained between two plates of glass. The shutter was rotated by a tiny motor which was driven in synchronization with a special shutter in front of the two projectors. The viewer saw the performance through a little shutter located at each seat. The process turned out to be not very successful, and it soon faded away. But its name stuck--"television".
He was promoted to cinematographer on the serial The Son of Tarzan (1920).
He got into the film business in 1915 as an assistant cameraman at Universal Pictures. He served in the army overseas during World War One, and when he returned home got a job with the National Film Co. as an assistant cameraman.
