Fabled NBC Studio 3H proved not to be only a testing ground for the new electronic cameras, but a testing ground for all things television! From scenery to lighting, it all had to be worked out, and 3H was where it was done. Lighting directors had to know television shots, and the close up camera was at the same time, their best friend, and worst enemy. A fascinating read.
