Omaha Film Students
to Be Seen in Picture Here
Omaha is to have a dramatic col
lege devoted especially to photo
play training under the direction of
De Wolfe Couts, who has estab
lished offices and a studio in the
Lyric building. Almost the entire
third floor will be devoted to a
model motion picture studio.
Mercury lights, sets, dressing
rooms and all the paraphanalia of a
motion picture studio are on hand
and applicants will be put through
a regular course of training in
motion picture work. Couts is an
ex-director and a capable- camera
man himself and contends that half
of the people who apply for motion
picture work are unfitted for it
or are unfitted for the parts they
aspire to play. He proposes to
train and prepare students so that
when they really have an oppor
tunity to work before a camera
they will know the fundamentals of
what is required.
One of the things that will be
taken up when the school has been
organized for some time will be a
short film, with students of the
school in the cast and arrange
ments will be made for it to be
shown in an Omaha theater.
