Just a note to everyone...Trailers for "The Bachelor" labeled "scope" are scope.
Trailers for "The Bachelor" labeled "flat" are scope.
Check 'em before you load 'em up!

So which ones are the flat ones? Are they the ones labled "16mm"?

On the subject of The Bachelor trailers, has anyone else noticed that the picture jumps up and down eratically during the first half? It's terrible. I'm surprised no customers have complained about it yet. Of course, it's only playing on Dog Park, which has no customers, so maybe that's why.

The were some trailers for I think it was Roberto Succo. Where the image jumps up and down, as it the projectionist is moving the frame line knob up and down. BUT the subtitles remain rock steady and you can see the background moving 'behind' the subtitles.

Hmmmm, I guess John Pytlak is going to have to coin a new phrase..."lab printing done right."

Continuous contact printers are optimized to print a "short pitch" original (e.g., BH-1866 perforations) to a long pitch master positive (e.g. DH-1870 perforations) or print film (KS-1870 perforations). Slower pin-registered step printing should be used if this short pitch / long pitch relationship cannot be maintained. But occasionally, tight production schedules force labs to contact print all stages of duplication, with the resulting printer slippage causing unsteadiness or loss of sharpness:

So movement can occur between the titles and the picture, which may have unsteadiness from continuous contact printing every stage of duplication.
