Dumont Electronicam\/Captain Video <\/p>\n

Although the show, ‘Captain Video And His Video Rangers’ was done live five and sometimes six days a week from 1949 till 1955, at least one Electronicam was used on the show daily after 1952. It seems that in ’52, real sci-fi writers like Arthur C. Clark began writing scripts and, a new special effects team of Russell and Haberstroh was hired in September 1952. For the rest of the program’s episodes, they provided surprisingly effective model and effects work, prefilmed in 16 mm format by the Electrocam and cut into the live broadcast as needed. Remember, the Electronicam married a live video camera and a Mitchell 16 or 35mm camera at the lens and the video camera could be used as a regular studio camera when needed. This is at Dumont’s NY flagship station, WABD.<\/p>\n
