Today, traditional TV still accounts for the lion’s share of video viewing, but online and mobile are where the growth is.

Today In Communication History

On this date in 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox signs an exclusive contract with optical manufacturer Bausch & Lomb to produce anamorphic lenses for CinemaScope. CinemaScope presentations carry the credit ‘lenses by Bausch and Lomb’, the original Chrétien lenses that Fox acquired having proved to have shortcomings, not the least of which is the requirement to focus both the primary lens and the add-on anamorphic lens separately.

Quote Of The Day

‘My affection for CinemaScope initially was my affection for the horizontal line as I learned it from having been apprenticed to an architect who was someone named Frank Lloyd Wright.’
Nicholas Ray
