About This Book

A practical, illustrated manual explaining the components, construction, operation and upkeep of motion-picture projection equipment. It describes film material and transport, intermittent movement mechanisms, shutter and gate design, winding and drive arrangements, and measures to protect film from heat and fire. Optical topics cover condensers, lenses and calculations for image size and distance, while lighting chapters treat arc and limelight installations, electrical supply and gas generation. Guidance is given on apparatus setup, projection-room layout, handling and maintenance routines, troubleshooting common defects such as flicker and mechanical noise, and the selection and safe use of accessories.
