CARRIER OF THE IMAGE THE LABORATORY TYPES OF FILM PRINTS FILM GENERATIONS MISCELLANEOUS TERMS COLOR FILM AND PROCESSES 12 : ;:^ ; .\ ., ... : . Film Stock and Processing CARRIER OF THE IMAGE Film TV is telecast from a recorded image that already has passed through various forms and processes. From camera lens to viewer screen, many steps in laboratory and editing carry the image on its way. Any- one who has dabbled in amateur photography has a head start on the words of this phase of the business, but soon the technical terms fly thick and fast. It all begins simply enough: Film, as used in the motion picture and television industry, is a continuous strip or ribbon of transparent flexible material chemically coated to produce a series of photographic images. At all stages, both before and after the image is produced, it is called "film" but Hollywood old-timers still pronounce it with an affectionately added syllable: "Fillum." On the edges are regularly spaced Perforations or Perfs or Sprocket Holes (35mm has 4 perforations per frame; 16mm has 1) to fit over the Pins or Sprockets or teeth of various driving mechanisms of camera, laboratory, editing and projecting equipment. Emulsion is the term for the chemical coating which becomes the photographic image. It is a coating on the Film Base or the basic flexible material. The manufactured product is called, within the trade, Film Stock, which refers to the particular type of film. (Not to be confused with stock film, to be mentioned later.) 157
