Cycolac
Master 3 - Tape 2 Colorful CU of pink telephone receivers being cut apart after being molded. CU gloved hands cutting receivers from mold. Vo describes how there is little waste and everything is reused - worker tosses scrap into bin. MS woman working in the Western Electric plant. Woman takes the dial units of the phone, puts them on moving overhead conveyors. Camera pans as phone casings are floating in various directions overhead (great). "This is the story of Cycolac..." and we see beautifully colored plastic beads inside laboratory beakers. Trade show display: "TOUGH, HARD, RIGID", it says. Animation of these words, flashing on and off. Quick shot of typewriter. Animated chart. CU production workers. Telephone falls off table (doesn't break, durability). Then we see that this film has been watched on a little monitor by men in an office. Man enters, "I'm sorry, Bob, you're busy, I'll be back later.." But they gather anyway and talk plastics. Men having a business meeting, sales meeting.
