What role did Charles and Ray play in the making of this beautiful little film? The end credits read, "By the Office of Charles and Ray Eames".

Thanks for reviving this little film
And, btw, who designed the camera?
I'd forgotten what a handsome object
it was.

I didn't know Dreyfus designed the SX-70. It's so right, though. Dreyfus' designs are streamlined and beautiful.

Eames Office was everywhere...
funny... not too long ago i bought a vintage chair from a fellow who was head of product design for IBM while Charles was consulting for them. we of course had quite a few conversations about Charles and MCM. he had a glowing admiration for the Eameses and seemed to really get a bang out of my mutual appreciation. funny thing was that during every discussion at some point he would say, 'you know he was a fantastic filmmaker, too'... I really got a kick out of him.
