The English Dufaycolor Film Process

W. H. Carson

The Dufaycolor three-color additive system of color cinematography, employing a geometrical color-screen or réseau imprinted on the film base, is briefly described. As many as a million color elements per square inch are employed, and a correct color balance is achieved by adjusting the area covered by the blue dye in relation to that covered by the two other primary colors. No appreciable changes of equipment are required in applying the system commercially, either in photographing, processing, or projecting, from what is now found in use.
