„New York Motion Picture Corporation
To keep up with their rapidly expanding business,
and to more adequately supply the demand for Keystone
Comedies, Mack Sennett, Vice-President and
Managing Director of the Keystone Company, is just completing
extensive enlargements in his studios and factory.
For the past three months the present plant at 1712 Allesandro
Street, Los Angeles, has been entirely too small for
the demands that were being put upon it.“ (...)
„Mr. Henry Lehrmann, Keystone Director, has just
completed a two reel „Kid“ melodrama, featuring
the abduction of a juvenile heroine by the juvenile villain.“ (...)
„The new program of three a week, and a two
reel special every month, recently adopted by the Keystone
Company, has caused Managing Director Mack
Sennett to hustle up all departments of the studio. A new stage,
60x80 feet, has just been completed, which, with the
old one now gives a total of over 300 square feet of working
room. All sets, props, and furnishings have been
added accordingly and there is now enough material to easily
keep eight or ten companies going. Four new directors,
with the same number of cameramen, have also been added.
This brings the list to a total of seven directors with
the accompanying seven companies of players. And all are
constantly at work turning out Keystone comedies.“ (...)
„The Keystone Company is working on a newspaper story
which was taken in the linotype room of the Los Angeles
Times. This latter paper is one of the largest dailies in the United
States, and no other company has photographed the
linotype machines and presses before. The great difficulty lies
in getting the proper light in the dark interiors. This the
Keystone Company overcame by sending nearly five hundred
miles to San Francisco and obtaining arc lamps of
the most powerful rays, which, with the lamps secured in Los
Angeles, gave the desired effect.“
Making a Living is released by Keystone Feb. 2, 1914.
