What reading level is The Technique of the Photoplay book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It was a thing so excep- tional that it would carry no conviction.
You may argue with the editor as to the possibility of this thing and that, but he cannot pass the argument along to the millions who might see the film, and so he passes the story back because it is not plausible, not because it is not possible that such a thing may have happened. Here we have the converse of the over-common true story. Do not follow the commonplace, but on the other hand do not offer the fact so unusual that i
...t must be seen to be believed.
The question of expense, too, cuts an important figure. If you write a fiction story and have the troops go marching by, you do not have to pay each man from two to five dollars a day. If you write of a steamer wreck, it costs no more to wreck an ocean liner than a small rowboat, but in a picture you must wreck the steamer or else find one already wrecked. Do not figure that they can make a trick picture because "they can make a camera do anything. " They can, but even then they must get the steamer and it costs money to charter a steamer of the proper size.
