Overview:
A selection of archive films from the camera of Geoff Holyoake. His material covers a wealth of steam locomotive types from the South Western, including the oldest surviving member of the LSWR to the last Bulleid’s running on the Main Line in 1967. For all of you who remember Waterloo as the start of wonderful holidays in Hampshire and Dorset – or as the start of yet another day’s work! – this dvd will bring back many memories of the last days of steam in the 1960s. To the Southern enthusiast it brings back happy memories of Bulleids Nelsons, M7s, Arthurs, green coaches, Nine Elms, Eastleigh and branches. Geoff Holyoake filmed all these, and more, on 16mm colour film for his Meteor Films, which were sold in 8mm film form many years before video came on the scene.

Cameramen and women discuss the craft and art of cinematography and of the "DP" (the director of photography), illustrating their points with clips from 100 films, from Birth of a Nation to Do the Right Thing. Themes: the DP tells people where to look; changes in movies (the arrival of sound, color, and wide screens) required creative responses from DPs; and, these artisans constantly invent new equipment and try new things, with wonderful results. The narration takes us through the identifiable studio styles of the 30s, the emergence of noir, the New York look, and the impact of Europeans. Citizen Kane, The Conformist, and Gordon Willis get special attention.
