Midocean Motion Pictures - "Demo Reel" (1979?)

Views: 775

Here's the final part of a demo reel from Midocean Motion Pictures, a production and graphics firm which worked "in association with" EUE-Screen Gems (the latter of "S From Hell" infamy, spun off from Columbia Pictures).

This came from a 3/4" Umatic tape that was kept by Cathy Mustari, art director for WFLD Channel 32 from 1974 to the late '80's, from a time when the station was actively shopping for produ...

WFLD Channel 32 - Brady Bunch Hour - "Grapes" (Bumper, 1977?)

Views: 2013

Here's a filmed bumper from WFLD Channel 32 advising that The Brady Bunch Hour will continue, complete with a snippet of the theme music as heard over the closing credits. (This was not a reference to their short-lived 1977 variety hour, but a back-to-back block of episodes from the original 1969-74 series that Channel 32 aired regularly.) The bumper uses a stylized "bunch" of grapes as it's motif.

This features the Kaiser-era "32" logo as used during the period the st...

Eddie Schwartz Interviews Jerry G. Bishop & Rich Koz (Part 4, 1982)

Views: 1358

Here's something pretty rare - you get your Jerry G. and Koz fix all in one. (Not to mention a tribute to recently passed "Chicago Ed" Eddie Schwartz). This is Part 4 (the last part) of a radio interview Eddie did with Jerry G. Bishop (in studio) where they call up Rich Koz at home.

This part also features veteran WGN-TV newsman, Jack Taylor.

Sorry for the variable and at times muffled audio quality - I did not mix this or attempt to fix it up much. If any aud...

WREX Channel 13 - "The Circus" (Take 1, 1969)

Views: 3574

Here's a (evidently lipsynced) performance from a band called "The Circus" - recorded at WREX Channel 13 in Rockford, IL. (not sure if this ever ran on or was intended to run on WCIU Channel 26 or not)

This came from the other Quad tape that I found in Jack Mulqueen's basement recently. (recorded in low band, according to the slate at the opening of this clip - as accompanied by an 800 Hz tone).

I was hoping this tape might have contained another episode of...

WCFC Channel 38 - Liberty Temple Full Gospel News - "Mad" (Part 4, 1987)

Views: 1555

Here's Part Four of the movie "Mad" on WCFC-TV Channel 38 - our religious station in Chicago - during the program "Liberty Temple Full Gospel News". This feels like something that should be part of the Found Footage Festival.

It ends with a "To Be Continued..." which alas was at the end of the recording, so we are left without a conclusion. :-(
