Scene-Change Cuing in Motion-Picture Printing

R. C. Lovick, J. M. Seemann, J. G. Stott

Some of the history of scene-change cuing in professional motion-picture printing is given. Advantages and difficulties inherent in the various techniques are discussed. Methods are described for greatly improving the conductive-patch scene-change cuing technique. The accuracy of the edge-notch and conductive-path scene-change cuing systems is demonstrated. A pulse-delay mechanism is described which makes notch covering or cue replacement unnecessary.
