Description
Graphic Films was established in 1941, by former Disney animator, Lester Novros.

His first commission would be the creation of an instructional film for the Army Air Corps, teaching pilots how to bail out of a P-38. Incorporated in 1946, Graphic Films became a strong entity in the production of films for all branches of the military as well the public and private sectors.

Graphic Films production proficiency quickly expanded to include numerous productions for the National Aeronautics and Space Agency - NASA. Doug Trumbull.
