<div>It is interesting to see how much equipment and how many people it took then.. and to an extent still does, as time goes on it is almost a pity we did not stash an entire ensemble of the trucks and gear from the 70's to show people 100 years from now.</div>

<div>It was typical on larger remotes (A games) such as this to have a production truck, a tape track, a chyron truck, and whatever else that was needed. On big shows, such as the Emmy awards, completely seperate audio trucks also were brought in, such as Wally Heider back in the day. Smaller VTR's, smaller CCU's, and expandable side trucks today can accommodate more people and more gear than in 1976. In the 35 years I've been out here, working big and small remote projects, one thing is in common year to year: Whatever is needed is brought in to get the job done right.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>That film was made in 1976 or so. I recall it being a rental at the Dallas Library and that it also aired on PBS affiliates. IIRC, it was shot on 16. Yes, it would be nice to have it preserved on HD eventually</div>
