Castro Valley artist on robot painting

About This Item

KRON-TV news footage from June 13, 1977 with reporter John Fulmer featuring an interview with Castro Valley artist Kathleen Ford and views of a lacquer painting on a 6ft galvanized steel sheet, depicting her vision for a TV game show MC, titled 'Time Capsule'. This rendering looks similar to the Star Wars droid C-3PO but was created long before that movie's release and is "just a coincidence." Opening graphic designed by Carrie Hawks.

This 16mm color reversal film print was scanned in 4K (4096x2970) using a Lasergraphics ScanStation film scanner, in March 2025.
