Paramount Seattle Mighty Wurlitzer

Yesterday I went to the Paramount to shot Dennis James playing the Mighty Wurlitzer for the silent film The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It was the most interesting shot so far in the Pull Stops project. 

Evidently there was some mis-communication between the parties involved. This resulted in the crew sitting around for 3 hours waiting to capture what will amount to 2-3 minutes for the project.  

If anyone wants to do a feature on the Wurlitzer and Silent Films Dennis James, is your subject matter expert. He is an amazing and gifted performer, and I only watched him play one piece of music. I am certain he makes the Trader Joe's Monday Night at the Silent Movies a magical experience. Abracadabra! at least the shot is over and in the bucket.
