Abstract
The number of projection rooms in Hollywood studios varies between one and fifteen, depending on the production capacity of the studio. Projection distances average about 60 feet. In general, reproducing equipment is furnished by the company whose recording apparatus is used. During shooting and editing of a picture, the sound track and picture are on separate films, practically doubling the amount of equipment needed and calling for special synchronizing devices. Daily and weekly routine checks covering frequency characteristics, power levels, and screen brightness are described, as well as small projectors and reproducers used for inspecting release prints in film processing laboratories. The paper also covers special applications, such as reproducers on stages (play-backs) used for furnishing music or for special work, as in split mat photography, special uses in scoring, trick work, etc.
