A rerecording print may consist of several sound records on separate films including dialogue, sound effects, music or any other required material. The term is used interchangeably to designate the entire group of associated films or any individual film which is part of the gToup. 3.3.6 Re-recorded Print. A re-recorded print is a sound print from a re-recorded sound track negative. 3.3.7 Sound Check Print. A sound check print is a sound print made from the sound release negative for the purpose of checking negative cutting, printing lights, sound quality, etc. Note: When a sound check print is required, it is usually made prior to the first trial composite print. 3.3.8 Sound Master Positive. A sound master positive is a sound print on special film stock and is usually made from a sound release negative for the purpose of producing sound dupe negatives for release printing. 3.4 Composite Print. A composite print is a positive film having both picture and sound track images on the same film which may be in editorial or projection synchronism. 3.4.1 Composite Daily Print. A composite daily print is the first print made from an original composite negative or an original sound and picture negative, and is used for checking photography, sound quality, action, etc. It is in projection synchronism. 3.4.2 First Trial Composite Print. The first trial composite is the first composite print made from the picture and sound release negatives for the purpose of checking and correcting picture and sound qualify, negative cutting and assembly, etc. It is in projection synchronism. 3.4.3 Second, Third, etc, Trial Composite Print. The second, third, etc, trial composite print is similar to the first trial composite print but has successive corrections incorporated as a result of viewing the previous trial composite prints. 3.4.4 Final Trial Composite (Sample Print). A final trial composite (sample print) is a composite print, approved for release, in which all corrections found necessary in previous trial composite prints have been incorporated. Note: The final trial composite may be any one of the various trial composite prints, depending upon the type and extent of corrections required. 3.4.5 Composite Master Positive. A composite master positive is a composite print usually made for the purpose of producing composite or picture and sound dupe negatives which would be used for printing release prints. Note: It is usually made on duplicating raw stock and may be in either editorial or projection synchronism. 3.4.6 Release Print. A release print is a composite print made for general distribution and exhibition after the final trial composite or sample print has been approved.

Foreign version release prints are composite prints in projection synchronism and are made specifically for the particular version involved. 3.4.7 Foreign Version Trial Composite Prints. Foreign version trial composite print* are similar to trial composite prints made during release except that they are made for checking the release of the particular version involved. 4. Color and Reversal Film Terms 4.1 Reversal Film. A reversal film is one which after exposure is processed to produce a positive image on the same film rather than the customary negative image. If exposure is made by printing from a negative, a negative image is produced directly. Note: Reversal films may be black and white, or color, and either sound or picture or both, and they are usually 16-mm films. 4.2 Reversal Process. The reversal process is the photographic process which reversal films undergo. It is a process in which a latent image is developed to a silver image by primary development, destroyed by a chemical bleach, and the remaining sensitized material exposed and developed in a second developer bath before fixing and washing.
