Having recently moved and while clearing everything out of the house i can across a very small piece of film i shot in the 70's. The place was called Cinema Workshop and situated in Eailing West London UK. A Super8mm Fully Coat dubbing theater which had 3 full coat synced playback channels and one full coat recording channel. As far i know it must of been one of a few in around the world that actually worked! This very short film was a remake of the usual film countdown leader found in the beginning of most films. As the film progresses you can see the one framed spliced fully coat "pip" getting nearer to the sound head. The pip will be the audio sync mark coinciding with the picture sync mark at number '3' on the countdown. The pip was made from recoding a 1 K tone and cutting just one frame. Film projector was locked to the dubbing channels via a sel-sync motor.(not sure if that's the correct way to say this) I dubbed one film with Cinema Workshop which ran for around 400 feet. My 3 channels were made of sync sound, music, audio effects. I made the film for a client so i don't have a copy. Doh. Happy new year to all.
This film was slowed down down around 50%
