New Television Production Techniques
In a paper entitled “Trends in Television Recording” published in this Journal last year, the importance of recorded programming in the schedules of all three U.S. commercial television networks was examined, and the nature of television programs recorded on video tape and those recorded on motion-picture film were compared. — This new paper examines video tape and film production techniques in greater detail than the earlier report to show that it is the differences in production techniques rather than differences in the recording media themselves that account for much of the present split in recorded programming between motion-picture film and video tape. This paper then describes a new electronic production system that will make it possible to produce film-type programs on video tape faster, more economically, and with higher quality than is presently possible on film.
