James A. FitzPatrick
After FitzPatrick left MGM in 1954, he produced a similar series for Paramount Pictures titled Vistavision Visits for another year before retiring.His approach was somewhat similar to that of Charles Urban in that his travelogues concentrated on architecture and landscape rather than on people.FitzPatrick also relates to Urban in his advocacy of color, which he first employed in Charles Gounod (1928), a film in the Famous Music Master series.The Traveltalks films are often shown on the Turner Classic Movies channel as filler material between features.In 2016, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment released the entire series of shorts in a three-volume DVD-R set titled Fitzpatrick Traveltalks.
