Improvement in Sound and Picture Release through the Use of Fine-Grain Film

Abstract: Many types of picture scenes are improved in quality when some of the new fine-grain films are used as a printing stock. More detail on the screen and less image “boiling” is observed due to the greater resolution of the fine-grain films. When such films are used for variable-density sound recording, a material increase in volume range is obtained which permits greater latitude in the original and dubbing recording operations. The sound quality is improved due to the reduction in noise and modulated noise effects which partially mask the signal when the coarser-grained positive types of emulsions are used. Data are presented on some of the problems encountered in the use of fine-grain films for dubbing prints, release negative, and release prints.
