Promotional film. The Telefex library of background films for television was created and distributed by Frank Fleming as a way to inject movement and action into studio-produced TV commercials. The clips utilized special optical techniques, animation, studio settings and location footage to create a variety of moods and effects. Some clips have their own musical sound tracks. Fleming produced a total of 230 clips 15- or 30-second clips, renting them to TV stations in series packages. This accession is an incomplete but representative sampling of the Telefex library material.
