Author Topic: Century CC framing Richard Quesnelle Film Handler Posts: 67 From: Penetang, Ontario, Canada Registered: Mar 2000 posted 05-04-2000 08:53 PM                     I don't exactly have the best boss as a teacher. He told me I have to feel the whole thread-up procedure myself (not exactly what I wanted to hear). I almost never have an out-of-frame problem with the C projectors because of the screws and view hole. It's that darn CC projector that sometimes throws me off. Are there any tips on framing from the experts? Thanks Again everyone.

When threading make sure the intermittant is in the "stop" position, line up the frame lines at the edges of the apeture place, and advance a few frames BY HAND to verify everything is good. Also a good idea to double check your loops this way too... NO movie should ever be started out of frame.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

They are the exact same projector, the only difference being that the CC has double shutters, the rest of it should be identical on the film side... Aaron  |  IP: Logged
