Two notes on recent posts in 21 Jul 2006 Digest:
The Auricon optical sound on film cameras are quite amazing.
I still have one that was outfitted by F&B Ceco with a TVT shutter
which shoots perfect
images of video monitor images without drift lines or any problems.
The mix of batteries needed for the sound amplifier power supply are
definitely a problem
since they are multiple with such specialized voltages.
It would be fantastic would be if some electronic genius came up with
a design for a power supply
that would would provide the various voltages needed, adapted from AC.
As far as A-1 film labs in New York, they have long been a friend to
the independent filmmaker,
providing good deals and decent work. Back in the 60s, they were a lab
that one filmmaker
turned another onto, and did many fantastic things like nursing
Carolee Schneemann's sewn,
pasted and collaged "Fuses" through a contact printer to make a master
positive. I still
miss the luxury of being able to shoot in the morning and watch rushes
later that same day.
Freddy has definitely kept up the heritage.
