On Set Communications 101…

Long before the were intercoms and walkie talkies, there were DBMs…Damn Big Megaphones.

The year is 1922 and the man in the center is Douglas Fairbanks. He is the star of the film being shot here, which is ‘Robin Hood’. The man about to speak into the DBM is Allan Dwan and this is the only way directors could give last minute instructions to casts and crews on this kind of huge outside set. Enjoy and share! – Bobby Ellerbee
