  1. I have recieved this mail from www.caboosebooks.net - it is about documenting the work of the projectionist from all over the work. Small beginning has already started here: http://www.caboosebooks.net/planetary-projection

     

    Any Forum projectionists who want to write, they are most welcome to contact Marina Uzunova, projectionists@caboosebooks.net

     

    Cheers Thomas

    ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::.

     

    I’m writing to tell you about a new project on the topic of film projection and to invite your participation in it.

     

    Planetary Projection is a collaborative on-line project that will profile individual film projectionists around the world. Perhaps you would consider submitting a few hundred words about film projection – something about your work you’ve always wanted to share, to inform people about?

     

    We’d like contributions to be lively and personal, something that will interest everyone from casual web surfers to film historians. Rather than starting out by saying ‘My name is . . .’, perhaps you could take pen in hand and set down your innermost thoughts, beginning with a sentence that might start out: ‘Sometimes when I’m in the booth I think . . .’; or ‘The important thing to remember about film projection is . . .’; or ‘To me, digital projection . . .’; or ‘The strangest thing that ever happened to me in the booth . . .’; etc. Some basic information about you can be provided in a separate mini-biography accompanying your contribution.

     

    Our on-line album will gradually form and grow. A printed book is planned when enough portraits have been created. We’re just getting started and hope you’ll consider being one of the first to participate, and help us spread the word.

     

    Planetary Projection is a project of caboose, an independent scholarly film book publisher whose acclaimed new English translation of selected essays from André Bazin’s anthology What is Cinema? was released in 2009. In the spring of 2012 we will publish the first-ever English translation of the volume Introduction to a True History of Cinema and Television by Jean-Luc Godard.

     

    Please visit our web site to learn more about us and our publication projects. You’ll also find there an article on the early film projectionist by caboose proprietor Timothy Barnard, in its published English, French and Spanish versions.

     

    Yours sincerely,

  2. I have a curved screen at home - it is around 2 (two) foot wide, and deeply curved.

     

    The Imperial Bio here in Copenhagen has a curved screen - celebrating it's 50th anniversary this year

     

    The Metropolis in Hamburg (former Savoy) still has the curved screen - and behind it the machinery to adjust the curvature, but I doubt that it still works.

  3. Dear all,

     

    Much amused by reading the "experts" opinions of the remaster work of "Windjammer". Obviously, they have never dealt with this kind of work professionally. For the serious reader, here are the facts about the remastered version of the film currently available for theatrical exhibition.

     

    http://www.in70mm.com/news/2009/windjammer/index.htm

     

    Far from perfect - agreed, the remastered version has been a source of admiration in the industry, and an example of what can be done for next to zero money.

     

    Most of the 3-strip negative (+ sound) - currently in its final stages of life - is available for photo-chemical restoration if anyone can come up the the funding needed. Some sections are mission, and have to replaced by dupes, but that is another story.

     

    Thanks for your interest in "Windjammer"

  4. ...just a small comment about 3 vs. 5 screen channels...

     

    The origin of Cinerama sound and later Todd-AO sound (soon to appear on www.in70mm.com)

     

    By Hazard "Buzz" E. Reves, who invented multichannel magnetic soundtracks for motion pictures:

     

    "This would be the first multiple magnetic sound recording equipment ever devised. Since we could establish our own sound standards, we decided to go all out for high fidelity. We concluded that five loudspeakers behind the screen was the very minimum for a good stereophonic effect. (Ideally, there should be an infinite number of speakers behind the screen). In addition, we wanted speakers in the rear and to the sides of the house to create offstage effects when desired."

     

    so repeating; "five loudspeakers behind the screen was the very minimum for a good stereophonic effect"

     

    enjoy the weekend

  5. Hello all,

     

    Just to let you know, "Windjammer" is shown July 20-23, 2010 in Aalborg, Denmark. Not seen in Denmark since 1960.

     

    I'll be there 20. July for the occasion with David Strohmaier - who is flying in from the US to talk about the remastered version.

     

    Screening takes place in Orla's cinemas (all opened in 2009) - all with curved screens and DP70s.

    Obviously "Windjammer" will not be in Cinemiracle, however, it is an opportunity to see an electronic version IN COLOR.

     

    http://www.in70mm.com/news/2010/remaster/index.htm

     

    Maybe some of you - not living too far away from Denmark - would be interested to see it, since it is playing in the neighborhood.

     

    For those of you who reads Danish, I have a "Windjammer" page on my Danish web site "The Cinema Museum": http://www.biografmuseet.dk/windjammer/index.htm

     

    Have a nice summer.
