>> dl, yes indeed, MOS stands for Mit-Out Sound,
>> referring to the German directors prevalent in the
>> film industry during the late silent-early talkie era.
>> I found this in several textbooks when I was a film
>> production student back in the '70s.  A scene shot
>> with sound is SOF or Sound on Film.  Maybe they used
>> MOS instead of "Silent" because they wanted another
>> three-letter acronym to go with SOF, I dunno.
