- Abstract
- An important link in the chain of factors affecting the printing characteristics of motion-picture color negative has been neglected: the person who exposes the negative. Since negative and positive emulsions, processing conditions and printer criteria can vary, direct printing information may be of little value in reporting to a cinematographer, who must then depend on subjective evaluation of daily rush prints and a kind word from the laboratory contact man. Exposure has been reported in terms of numbers on an arbitrary printer scale. Means for keeping the scale constant in the face of varying conditions is described, and the system is offered as a language of communication between laboratories, cinematographers and photographic-effects technicians
