anyone would
you in touch with your local stockist.
Paul Beeson, past President of the British Society of Cinematographers, has finally. found the perfect lighting filter. Here he chats with Lee Filters chief David Holmes, as he sees how the Lee Filter range is made at the Company’s new plant in Andover, England.
DH ‘You were complimentary about our colour control. This is the machine that does it."
PB ‘’You certainly have an excellent plant here. But control takes more than one good coating machine. How do you manage it?”
DH*’Top quality stock, for a start. ICl make our base. It’s Melinex, a polyester film. Tough as old boots and much more heat-resistant than conventional acetates.’’
PB ‘‘And laboratory control?”
DH’’The latest equipment. ICI digital colorimeters, Beckman spectrophotometers, Jagenberg pilot coating machines. There’s no stinting anywhere in this plant.”
PB “What I’m really taken with are the anti-fade properties of your range.”
DH“’So is everyone else who tries Lee Filters. We both know how nice it is not to keep looking over your shoulder to make sure your filters aren’t going up in smoke!”’
PB “That's a strong point! So how’s the message going over?"’
DH" Loud and clear, we think. Lee Filters are enjoying a fantastic sales rate to all major film and TV studios and theatres throughout the world.”
PB ‘How do you reach them?”
DH “By world-wide representation. And our production capacity provides delivery virtually off the shelf.”’
PB ‘’I'm glad you've got that sort of back-up. I’ve known other filters fall down on that score.”
DH ‘We think it’s a great product. We can’t allow a situation where film and TV technicians can’t get at it.”
PB “Well, Dave, | already use Lee. What you're showing me says I’m doing the
right thing.”
