Our expert's notes

An insert shot clapperboard from Ridley Scott’s Alien. Clapperboards of this size were used for close-ups where larger, more cumbersome boards were too big for the camera frame.
This clapperboard is made of wood with the film’s working title “The Alien” and the names of director Ridley Scott and director of photography Derek Van Lint painted at the top. The plate has the slate number “508” and the take number “5” written in chalk below. Notes written on tape indicate the board’s use by the production’s “A” camera, which would have been operated by Scott, for an exterior space scene on 21 October 1978. Shot notes for slates 507 and 508 are present on a sheet attached to the rear. The clapper stick is firmly attached and closes with a firm snap. Well-used and exhibiting natural production wear on the hinge and plate, the clapperboard remains in good condition. Dimensions: 2 cm x 26 cm x 20 cm (¾” x 10 ½” x 8”)
