Due to the non-standard frame size of the original nitrate material, the footage
was "passed through" the printer four times in order to print all segments of the
picture to a 16 mm. viewing print. For the online Berliner exhibit, the 16mm print
was transferred to Betacam SP videotape to produce the master for digitization.
Short jumps in continuity in the digital version indicate that small parts of the
original film are missing. Like many other motion pictures of the time, the original film was probably shot with a variable speed camera. Therefore, in the video mastering process, the playback speed was adjusted to present the appearance of natural motion to the greatest degree possible. |
