the edison company’s presence in town, including the two - month stay of 12 cast and crew members coupled with beach’s swashbuckling in the vicinity, was the likely combination that caused charleston to recognize the economic benefits that accompany the motion picture business. much like today the continued presence of the edison company and the excitement that accompanied the production of motion pictures in the charleston area, contributed to the chamber of commerce’s film recruitment efforts which began as a full time effort in 1916. c. m. benedict, director of the chamber’s tours and conventions department, initiated funding for the publicity department to come to charleston to make pictures. in 1917, e. joyce milberry was salaried at $ 250 per month plus expenses to campaign full time. the city also provided photo albums of the city’s views to producers and entertained many prominent film people of the silent era .

the first hand - cranked images were captured at the charleston exposition of 1902. intended to promote the city of charleston for tourism and business, the exposition was poorly attended, but did set the foundation by attracting a newsreel crew from the thomas edison company. these one - reel documentaries are comprised of a single shot, ranging from one to three minutes, and are visible today at the library of congress website. the sleepy wreckage of charleston’s once glorious past left an impression, as the edison company returned a decade later to shoot four films back to back and establish the lowcountry’s only film studio to date. however, over a decade passed before the first feature film was shot here. subsequently, a number of events from 1908 to 1914 contributed to the lowcountry’s eventual popularity to filmmakers of the silent era .

artistic necessity and historical inspiration have drawn filmmakers to charleston for over 100 years. as a back lot for stories about the civil war (the southerners 1914 – cold mountain 2002), high sea adventure films (peg of the pirates 1918 – white squall 1998), to small town milieu films (pied piper malone 1924 – radio 2002) the lowcountry has offered a look sufficiently distinct to consistently attract filmmakers from around the world. while much has changed in charleston’s century of cinema, the fundamentals remain the same: film is a good business for the lowcountry and when supported by the community, a consistent one .

the demand for one and two reelers created an insatiable market by 1905. production and exhibition required small amounts of capital, far less expertise, and attracted hundreds of entrepreneurs to the flickering image business. abundance of light and consistent weather conditions was among the most difficult requirements which made florida the motion picture capital of the world, during the winter months until the mid - teens. in 1910, jacksonville was home to over a dozen studios including, kalem, majestic, thanhouser, selig, lubin and gene gautier feature players. but in an era before movie stars, exotic stories in exotic places were a very important distinguishing factor for film goers .

this interaction is also mentioned in bob basalla’s book chess in the movies. as regards the other masters, it may be noted that the set of pairings filmed (e. g. marshall v torre and réti v yates) corresponds to no round of play at moscow, 1925, and there is much artificial smiling for the camera. another point is that the cinema entry in the encyclopedia of chess by h. golombek (london, 1977 and harmondsworth, 1981) stated that the director, pudovkin, utilized ‘such real personages as capablanca and lasker as figures in his short film’, whereas basalla writes (justifiably, from our own viewing), ‘i can’t see where emanuel lasker appears at all’ .
the edison company, when it returned in 1914, had several films set for production which were appropriate to charleston at the time, and, they were seeking a place to establish an on - going studio facility. the southerners, a warning from the past, the two van rebels and the days of slavery, were three of the other films made by the edison company and were shot partially in their studio located behind the princess theater on king street. while the production’s proximity to the theater might appear quaint, it must also have proven convenient as all four films were exhibited in town within a few months of shooting .
