Samuel Berger Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 I no longer live in sunny L.A., is there any place where I can order an 8-panel production board and strips online? All I've found are some being sold for around $200 by Tom Keane. I don't remember them costing that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Berger Posted December 10, 2017 Author Share Posted December 10, 2017 There was a stationary store on Ventura Blvd that had them. I wish I remember the name of the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Berger Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 Bumping for the nighttime posters. I imagine the use of production boards has declined in favor of digital solutions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samuel Berger Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Just wondering. I'm old but I can't be that old. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted December 16, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted December 16, 2017 Sure, I remember strip boards back in the 1990's. Don't see any advantage to them since every department head and assistant needs a copy of the one line schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuel Berger Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 Looks great, David, thanks! I googled about this a few times now and it seemed that no one knew what a production board was, it was odd seeing such a common thing disappear all of a sudden.

Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted December 16, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted December 16, 2017 I remember those old strip boards being carried around location like the Ark of the Covenant... The only thing I liked was seeing the strips get pulled out as you completed something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
