The series is comprised of scripts, proposals, correspondence, photographs, and other documentation related to commercial film productions by Cinecraft Productions, Inc. from 1939 to 1981. A majority of the content dates from 1942-1959. The dates provided in this series are the recording dates of each film production. Film scripts make up the majority of the series’ content, however, many project files also contain handwritten notes, contracts, packing lists, and brochures. A small number of files contain various documentation for projects that were never completed, such as proposals, scene outlines, and plot synopses. The projects primarily function to advertise products for companies local to the Greater Cleveland, Ohio metropolitan area. Many scripts are also written for clients beyond Cleveland, Ohio, including Pennzoil Company, Seiberling Rubber Company, and the General Electric Company. The Westinghouse Electric Corporation, the Ohio Bell Telephone Company, and Standard Oil of Ohio (SOHIO) are among the most represented clients in the collection. Each Cinecraft project has a title, a client, an advertising agency, and a project code. Project codes are identifiers used by Cinecraft to denote the type of production and the order it was produced. Project codes are written in the form X-###. The letter prefix indicates the type of production (for example, “K” corresponds to television commercial films), and the production number indicates the order it was produced. The content is filed by project and the series is arranged alphabetically by client name. Projects created for the same client are arranged chronologically.
