Some Equipment Problems of the Direct 16-mm Producer

Lloyd Thompson

The production of industrial films by the direct 16-mm method is now definitely out of the experimental stage. As more industrial work is done by this method there is an increasing demand for more and better 16-mm equipment suitable for professional use. Such equipment can be developed successfully only after the professional user has found by actual experience what he needs and wants. — A number of 16-mm professionals were asked for suggestions as to what is needed. These suggestions combined with the author's own ideas gained over a period of ten years in the professional 16-mm field form the basis of this paper. Some of the ideas presented could be acted upon immediately; some can not be put into practice until the demand for 16-mm service becomes even greater.
