A Modern Laboratory for 16mm Film

A large motion-picture laboratory, designed for the processing of 16mm film exclusively, was completed by Consolidated Film Industires, Hollywood, in February 1953. The main floor contains all the film-handling rooms arranged to follow a sequence of processing operations. The basement houses all the auxiliary equipment, and the second floor is occupied by projection rooms, cutting rooms and other customer facilities. Several innovations have been included, of which the most noteworthy is a one-to-one 16mm optical track printer, using two Davis drives from the Westrex sound recorder.
