This is the third of three film items documenting the Board for Anthropological Research (BAR) expedition to Wilgena and Ooldea, South Australia during 7-21 May 1926. The expedition party included numerous BAR members.

The cinematographer was TD Campbell (AA 52). This is a nitrate off cut that was not included in the final film production 'Scenes of Aboriginal Life.' It is managed as NFSA Title No. 33554. In 1979 the South Australian Museum Archive (SAMA) deposited its nitrate film collection with the National Film and Sound Archive (NFSA) for cold storage. The history of the SAMA nitrate film deposit at NFSA in 1979 has been documented in the Series Report (AA 346/9).

The method adopted by BAR expeditions to undertake research and record the results involved assigning a unique number to each individual (here called 'individual subject number'). This number was given the expedition symbol as a prefix, and remained consistent throughout the research. This expedition was assigned the symbol 'B.' All individuals recorded during the expedition were assigned an individual subject number, for example [B5]. Where possible the 'individual subject number' of those who appear in film have been noted.

The time coded summary is in minutes and seconds. Following the summary of this film is a list of references. Formats held: SP Betacam, Digital Betacam, DVDs.
