Because I don't remember... - Reel 6 is about 40% full - Edit: DTS-ES/SRD-EX - Projection trading cards enclosed and also a "Projection Notice"....usual Pixar goodies - Trading card mentions Reels 4 and 5 both end in black but there are "cut here" indicators. Haven't actually built print yet though, so I will confirm this later. Enclosed: - Beverly Hills Chihuahua - Meet Dave - Tale of Despereaux - Madagascar 2 - Pink Panther 2 - Perfect Game - Journey to the Center of the Earth - Fly Me to the Moon - Longshots  |  IP: Logged Jake Lafree Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Valparaiso, IN USA Registered: Feb 2006 posted 06-25-2008 10:54 PM                        Buena Vista Distributed through Technicolor, printed by Deluxe - Reel 6 is 99% credits (fades in from black to tannish-colored background with white credits) - Some of the "Cut Here" marks are incorrect (at least on my 3 prints). Either they are a half sprocket off or 1 full sprocket off. I used a long piece of leader to find a frame line and check. The tail of Reel 4 is true black, and thus, the hardest. The tail of Reel 5 and head of Reel 6 are also both black, yet you can see the framing lines on those.  |  IP: Logged Matt Kerekes Film Handler Posts: 73 From: Rio Rancho, NM Registered: Oct 2004 posted 06-26-2008 08:00 PM                     I had a hard time with the head of Reel 5, I could not see the frame lines. I found the word "REBOOT" was aligned with the 3rd sprocket hole of the frame, because a few frames later a shape popped up above the word.  |  IP: Logged Jake Lafree Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Valparaiso, IN USA Registered: Feb 2006 posted 06-26-2008 09:10 PM                        Yes, on that "reboot" frame head I had to use leader and trace back to a frame line closer to the head of the head.  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 06-27-2008 10:00 AM                        To clarify - The "cut here" arrows are all 1 perf off. If you leave 1 perf in front of the end of the arrow when you cut, you will be on the frame line. I'll bet there will be a lot of non Film-Tech readers who have bad splices tonight!  |  IP: Logged
