Abstract
TWO PROCEDURES for adjusting telecine colour balance are described. The first makes use of selected test materials to assist the setting of telecine colour balance to a mode which gives optimum reproduction of the film colour balance. Such material is used in Thames Television when aligning equipment used for television commercial replay. The second procedure makes use of a leader grey scale, obtained from the BKSTS reference negative, and auxiliary colour balancing equipment to correct any residual tracking errors which may occur in the print stock used for a particular film production. These two forms of telecine colour balance operation are referred to as NEUTRAL GATE and NEUTRAL LEADER. The uses of a high quality reference picture print in telecine are also discussed and final sections illustrate various methods of monitoring the equality of signals obtained from televised grey scales.
