Automation is a journey, not a destination...

1602:

It is a great day in William Shakespeare's life! He just finished writing 'Hamlet'! Now it's time to start rehearsing!

But he needs so many copies of the script for all the actors!

So, everyone sat down for months to have a copy of the entire play for themselves.

Some of them were really struggling to read the author's handwriting...


1921:

Charlie Chaplin just finalized the screenplay of 'The Kid' a few days back.

He is considering buying a typewriter to copy the script so that it is legible.

It is much faster too. He only has a few weeks before the shooting starts.

But a typewriter is very expensive these days and he also needs to find someone who can type...


1952:

Mr. Chaplin found a better way!

A typewriter uses something called Carbon Paper that makes multiple copies in one round of typing.

He is both excited and nervous about 'The Great Dictator'! The shooting is starting next week.

He wishes he could start before the Fuehrer knows about it!

He is ready, except for the scripts...


1982:

Steven Spielberg just handed over the full screenplay of 'E.T.' to his office boy.

Available copies of the script can't be used because he had to make a few changes at the last minute.

He needs the photocopies positively by tomorrow morning!

John Barrymore's 6-year old granddaughter is auditioning tomorrow after lunch...


2004:

Fortunately, this time Steven wrote the entire screenplay for 'Catch Me If You Can' in Microsoft Word!

Both Tom and Leonardo are very demanding actors! Why on earth do they need the script in the next half hour??!!

Oops!!! The printer is out of paper...
