Cinerama
Wide-screen process devised in 1937 by Fred Waller of Paramount's special-effects department. Originally three 35-mm cameras and three projectors were used to record and project a single image. Three aspects of the image were recorded and then projected on a large curved screen, with the result that the images blended together to produce an illusion of vastness. The first Cinerama film was the travelogue This Is Cinerama (1952); the first story feature was How the West Was Won (1962).
