What is Golden Era Productions?
Golden Era Productions is a division of Church of Scientology International that was formed to produce religious training and dissemination films. It is located in Southern California on a 500-acre property which contains film and sound studios as well as editing facilities and even a film laboratory, making it possible to produce all of these religious films in-house.
Many of the skills needed by an auditor are best communicated by example, which is most effectively achieved today through audio-visual media. Mr. Hubbard wrote a series of motion picture scripts to demonstrate exact points of Scientology religious technology and also wrote more than 50 film scripts on Scientology to disseminate Scientology principles to the general public. These are still being produced today.
Golden Era also provides audio-visual dissemination materials for the Scientology religion. These include videotaped programs, radio and television messages, and Sunday service broadcasts. The films and other audio-visual products are translated into many languages for use in other parts of the world.
Much of the Scientology scripture is contained in Mr. Hubbard’s 3,000 tape-recorded lectures—generally 90 minutes in length each. One of Golden Era’s vital functions is to restore these lectures (many of which were recorded in the 1950s and had deteriorated) and to reproduce them in cassette form, along with full transcriptions, for use by students on Scientology training courses.
Golden Era also supports the
religion worldwide with dissemination brochures, posters, fliers and magazines in many languages. New books and other religious materials based on Mr. Hubbard’s researches and writings are also compiled, designed and
translated into 16 different languages
at Golden Era.
