| Editing Guidelines |
|
Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:
- If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
- Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films
- Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development.
To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met:
- Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.)
- Film infobox ({{infobox film}})
- Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.)
- Plot summary
- Include cast and crew information.
- At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.)
- Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))
Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF
Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

"A theoretical model for all motion picture cameras they have produced is the "cat-on-the-shoulder," a small, light, quiet motion picture camera easily operated by a single cinematographer."
I don't agree with the last sentence. The "cat on the shoulder" is a concept of "comfortable to operate hand held". It can be operated by a single cinematographer, in some situations, like any camera, but any camera requires an assistant, especially when working on fiction films, in many situations, when focus has to be pulled, and Aaton cameras allow to work on feature/fiction films and they do.
For sure Aaton cameras are easier to work with hand held on the shoulder than many other ones, if not the easiest, and working with an aaton camera for a single cinematographer is certainly the easiest to work with in this situation, but please don't say that Aaton cameras allow working without an assistant, because that's not true.
I am a 20 years experienced camera assistant.
