Historical Note

Campus Camera was originally put together in the fall of 1966, where trial showings were given after the weekly movie in the Union Building. Before its final name of Campus Camera, this student group, operating under the Public Relations Committee, went by USU Newsreel or Campus Newsreel. No previous experience was needed to join Campus Camera, as they frequently advertised for anyone to join that wanted to do camera work, film production, and scriptwriting. It is unclear how long this student group filmed for, as the last of the films in this collection date to 1971. Their reason for dissolvement is unknown.
