RecordCouncil | 35mm Film Leaders - Raw frames, no stabilisation @RecordCouncil | Uploaded April 2022 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
This video is likely to be of limited interest to most. This is a raw frame stream from the scanner with no post processing applied. Mostly to show registration. There are issues with the main drive mechanism which are currently causing pretty bad registration. I'm hoping to rectify this in the coming weeks with some new prints but also stepper motor heat management which is a big issue when dealing with PLA plastic. The leader is from a short I am hoping to capture in it's entirety.
The reason there are two leaders is that I do not like to remove the original leaders from prints but I like to scan them if they belong to the print. In order to put something in the film path to reach the take-up spool I often splice a second leader on top.

Ive had this one on a larger core for about 10 years and its still pretty badly warped. I dont know if it will ever be perfect.
It certainly presents better than it did on the old upload played through the projector. The sound isnt as badly warped anyway.")

Print date April 2008.
I cant remember if we got any complaints about this from patrons at the cinema but the TVC did from memory, they were dismissed by the regulatory board.
In British/Australian slang the term beaver refers to part of the female anatomy, Im not sure if this is universal.
The video source, probably 25 or 30fps is evident in what I believe are some weird pulldown artefacts.
The soundtrack has some sibilance in the VO that I was not able to get rid of and seems to be an issue with the soundtrack itself. This is not unheard of, advertising was known to arrive at the cinema with bad lab soundtracks around this time.")

Another reupload guys, apologies for the duplicate but using this as a learning process getting you the best quality versions YouTube can allow.")

5-perf overscan along with just about the rattiest leader Ive ever seen. Im sure this thing saw its fair share of the floor of a bio box. Good demonstration of the DTS timecode between the picture and analog track.
The tracking on the actual DTS tag is unfortunately pretty crap and bouncy owing to a general lack of any definition (were not putting any damn Dolby soundtrack on our tag!) between the sprocket holes which is the area I most commonly use for motion tracking stabilisation.
The projectionist has cut out the beep and replaced with white leader that says OPEN. (dowser)
The only cinema I ever worked as projectionist that had DTS was the Como Theatre so it must have been from the scrap pile there.

This is one of the worst video to film transfers I have ever seen, there are parts that dont even look good enough to be a broadcast grade tape transfer, more like VHS with dot crawl, banding and mono audio.")
