With the Scene Machine, the photographer can use a wide variety of backgrounds including indoor and outdoor scenes, computer graphics, abstracts, and solid colors to complement the subject. Anything the photographer can photograph with his 35 mm camera can become a background in his studio if he is using a Scene Machine. Today's consumers profer contemporary portraiture that resembles the images they see on television and in the print media. The use of the Scene Machine increases the photographers competitive advantage and potential profits. The Scene Machine was developed by EPS president, Dr. Henry Oles and is patented. EPS manufactures and/or markets a wide variety of products related to the Scene Machine. The Scene Machine concept would not work without a special ultra reflective projection screen which EPS fabricates. EPS has also created a special reflective floor panel which permits the creation of full length backgrounds that completely surround the subject. EPS has created and markets a wide selection of background slides for the photographer to use in his projection system. To control quality, all slide duplicates are made by EPS. EPS markets a wide variety of related studio products including studio electronic flash lighting, camera stands, overhead light support systems, cameras, background supports and props. EPS also markets specialized laboratory processing equipment including developing systems for transparencies, developing and printing machines for typical one hour color labs, and specialized package printing machines for professional color printing. EPS is the sole designated US importer of Hensel flash equipment from Germany. Training is a very important component of all EPS operations. EPS has created a unique set of video training tapes to help the customer quickly master the successful operation of the Scene Machine system. Seminars are held monthly at the EPS training center for both prospective customers and current equipment owners. Seminars are also held in key cities throughout the United States covering both equipment operation and product marketing concepts. EPS recently formed an agreement with COPAL SYSTEMS, one of the world's largest manufacturers of one hour processing equipment, to conduct educational training seminars of mutual interest to both companies. EPS is also involved in the creation and fabrication of specific products for other photographic companies such as the new Auto Studio System which will be sold world wide in 1989• EPS has designed several major components for the Auto Studio System and will be responsible for manufacturing those components and assembling the entire Auto Studio package for shipment. The world's largest manufacture of one hour laboratory processing equipment has purchased the exclusive sales rights to Auto Studio worldwide. The vast majority of all products sold by EPS range in price from $3,000 to $30,000. The markup varies considerably depending upon the product and whether or not EPS manufactures, imports, and/or just distributes the product. Processing equipment sales generally range from $15,000 to $100,000.
