Y. the picture film; for once this track is cut, the operation is final and the track cannot be edited or altered. The special Filmgraph recording film, which is the width of 1 6mm. cine film, sells for 85c per 100 foot roll. The Filmgraph is adjustable so it will record up to 40 parallel tracks within the single width of this film. Figured on the travel basis of 24 feet per minute, a single 100 foot sound track would cost about zY^c. In the second photo (bottom of page) the Filmgraph is shown in use for straight recording as when making a sound track on separate film for 8mm. movies or for recording speeches, music, radio broadcasts, etc. According to the manufacturer, Filmgraphs are available in limited number until after end of the war, when the company plans to expand its production in keeping with the demands of movie amateurs for an economical system for producing synchronized sound for their films.

The film also opens the possibility of front page color photography coverage of important news breaks within twenty-four hours of their occurrence when newspapers are able to secure proper stock. To date, Ansco has published no instructions for the home processing of Ansco Color reversible film. The chief reason for this is, that because of technical differences in the processing as compared to processing of black and v. hite film, Ansco does not recommend that users of Ansco Color motion picture film carry out ther own processing. Complete developing procedure for Ansco Color film is more complex and more critical than the reversal processing of black-and-white film. As a result, it can be carried out satisfactorily only with developing apparatus especially designed for the purpose. Attempts to process Ansco Color film on ordinary home equipment, such as racks or drums, involve such possibilities of trouble as temperature variations arising from the fact that the film may be exposed to air during part of the time it is being treated in each solution. In other words, to attempt processing Ansco Color film on a drum, the film would constantly be exposed to air as it was rotated in the solution. In addition, aerial oxidation may occur and this is far more serious with color film than with black and white. For the present, distribution of Ansco Color reversible movie film is limited to the 16mm width and in the daylight type only. Eventually, Ansco Color will be available in both 16mm. and 8mm. and in two types — Daylight and Tungsten. Color balance of the Daylight Type is said to be adjusted to give the best rendition of average subjects in bright sunlight. Color balance of the Tungsten Type film is adjusted for tungsten lamps operated at a color temperature of 32000 K. When used with photoflood lamps, the Tungsten Type MOVIE OF THE MONTH • FROM among the films submitted for review by readers each month, the editors select the best and award it Home Movies' certificate for the Movie of the Month.
