Production of two digital tours and mobile apps, onsite kiosks, and online resources augmenting a new permanent exhibition on Jewish founders of the film industry and highlighting the history of Los Angeles neighborhood movie houses.

The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures respectfully submits a Production grant application to pilot two new digital user tours for its free digital interactive Hollywood Past & Present. The interactive takes the diverse array of lives, histories, and media found in the Academy Museum’s exhibitions and uses location-based storytelling techniques to create self-guided visitor tours of American film history, both on-site at the museum and on the streets of Los Angeles.
