The fader is closed, the camera started, and the fader started 2 seconds later. The camera is run until enough film is exposed for the title, then the fader is set to close, with the camera stopped when the fader stops. At this point the camera is opened and the film magazine removed and turned over, as would be done when it comes time to expose the second 2 5 feet. With the lens capped, the camera is allowed to run for 3 seconds, and this operation returns the film to the starting point of the first fade. The camera is opened again and the film magazine turned over and placed in its original position. With fader in closed position, camera and fader are started simultaneously. After fader stops, camera is kept running until sufficient footage is exposed of the second title. — William Nemeth, Bridgeport, Conn. Flat Black When in need of flat black paint for your titler or other movie accessories, try black shoe dye. It dries fast and leaves an even dull black finish, does not reflect light. Good for lettering titles, too. — Natale DeFlavia, Philadelphia, Pa. Titles For Color Film With color film so hard to get, here is a method for making tinted titles for either Kodachrome or Ansco Color film, using less expensive black and white film and tinting and toning same after exposure and developing. Briefly the method consists of the following steps: 1 — Photograph and develop the film. 2 — After film has dried thoroughly, tone the film in a chemical toner of the desired color. This will color the blacks and intermediate tones of the emulsion. Wash film and allow it to thoroughly dry. 3 — Tint the film an appropriate color. This step will color the highlights. Thus a title composed of black letters on a white background will come out with toned letters and tinted background. It is important that a chemical toner and a dye tint be used. If both toner and tint is a dye, the tinting process will wash out the tone color and vice-versa. Edwal's blue toner is a recommended chemical toner. For dye tints, use Craig Cinetints. Small lengths of film can be tinted in small trays; longer lengths must be treated on regular film processing drums. — Gregg Koesfer, Wichita, Kansas.
