EDITING AND CONTINUITY 189 For this reason, much amateur and so-called semi-professional equipment is unsuitable. The equipment to be described is for 16 mm film; it is similar to 35 mm but scaled down. Probably Bell & Howell and Griswold equipment is used as much as any, and the following pictures show some of their prod- ucts for editing. Figure 9-1 is the Filmotion editing equipment. This shows the two rewind brackets on which the reels are mounted and turned to rewind and inspect the film. In mounting reels on the rewind shafts, it is generally only possible to place them on in a standard position this is usually a help since it pre- vents errors which can occur if the emulsion appears on the wrong side. In moving film through a rewinder, the same rule applies as for film in a projector: that is, always rewind film in the same direction in which it came off the reel unless, of course, there is some special reason for desiring it the other way. Film is normally placed in the re- winder with the emulsion side down; this has two purposes—one is to protect the emulsion from scratches and marks it might pick up if the emulsion were uppermost, and the second is to present an upright image in the viewer when editing. Usually the full reel goes on the left hand rewind. When the film is returned from processing, two copies are received, the negative, or master, and a work print. The negative is never run in the editing Fig. 9-2. Neumade editing rack and barrel.
