If you haven't been using
your movie protector for a
few months, here's q routine
that will make for better liv-
ing room movie shows.
Tighten any screws that
may have jiggled loose.
Use q soft brush to clean
the sprockets and rollers, to
dust on the projection lamp
bulb, and to take any "whisk-
ers" Of dust of the Aim gate.
Clean the condenSers and
lens with lens tissue.
Remove any dust from the
blower fan housing.
With this done, prepare for
your showing before your au-
dience arrives. Take a couple
Of turns with the projectors
electric cable around the leg
Of the table on which 1t rests.
This will prevent the machine
from being jerked to the
fioor II someone inadvertently
catches his foot in the cable.
Act to Prevent Breaks
II there are any weak spots
In the Aim, cut and splice
right now to prevent breaks
and embarrassing time inter-
walls during the show.
Thread the film through
the protector and onto the
take-up reel. Then turn on
the machine long enough to
assure yourself that the loop
Is right and that the film is
running through faultlessly.
Then focus the image and
make sure the image is the
size you want it to be. Now is
the time to move the screen
or projector-not later when
people will have to wait i'm
patiently as you work with
the equipment.
Allow the tilm to advance
30 that when you turn on the
machine you will have the
title on the screen rather
than q foot or so Of blank
11lm. If 1t is a sound film be
sure that the protector is
warmed up before starting
the show and that the sound
volume is set to the right
level.
In other words. try to make
your show get of to the same
smooth start that you expect
when you go to a movie the
alter for entertainment.
These are techniques that
are worth converting into
habits before showing your
films. And your friends and
family will appreciate it.

Here's how to do 1t. Bring
the image from the negative

on q scrap piece Of unexposed

about Ks of this strip uncov-

Then, in addition to the

and exposing at 4-second in
tervals until the entire strip
