Six thousand feet of natural color motion pictures and 900 feet of special pictures for enlarged automatic projection have been taken so far, while 1,400 black and white stills have been made. Seasonal “shots’ are to be taken during the fall and winter.

Eastman has traveled more than 12,000 miles, covering Tehama, a Shasta, Lassen, Siskiyou and Modoc counties of California and Jackson, Klamath and Lake counties of Oregon.
