Training for Videofilm Production

Rodger J. Ross

The work of the Eastman Kodak Co. among television filmmakers and users has led to the conclusion that training is urgently needed to achieve the highly desirable goals of better and more efficient use of the film medium in television program production. In a series of five-day videofilm seminars at the new Riverwood Marketing Education Center near Rochester, participants are given the opportunity to become familiar with the way film is reproduced in the television system, and the consequences of improper operation on one side or the other, through practical “hands-on” experience with film cameras and telecine controls. In group evaluation sessions, the television pictures produced by each participant from films with density, contrast and color-variation extremes are subjected to criticism and discussion.
