K proėktu ob organizacii tvorčeskoj laboratorii II (Design for the Organisation of the Creative Laboratory II)
This scheme supplements proposals that Vertov had already submitted in writing to the studio directors of Mežrabpomfil’m for the reorganisation of film work (cf. diary entries from the year 1936). What Vertov called in the diagram "K proėktu ob organizacii tvorčeskoj laboratorii I" "Recording apparatus", is here specified in a kind of "close-up". In the middle is a source of electrical energy. Above left is the sound equipment, coupled with a bicycle and a trolley that can be dismantled. Above right is the "Silent film apparatus", connected to a mobile tower or crane. Below left is the lightning apparatus, equipped with special technical adaptors. Below right is the mobile laboratory, connected to a mobile editing room. The whole recording apparatus is also coupled with a traction machine below.
