History[[edit] | [edit source]]
At least in the early film industry, projectors were used to play films at cinemas. The Electro had an exhibit planned involving old celluloid movies. When the opening event came around, though, the wrong tape seemed to play, featuring a group of performers, and the projector wouldn't switch off. The Ghostmaker and Pearl were freed from the celluloid, and took three-dimensional form. (TV: From Out of the Rain [+]Loading...["From Out of the Rain (TV story)"])
