DCI cinema install overview

Writing by jamieg on Friday, 23 of January , 2009 at 10:58 pm

Here I show you an installation of a DCI media player and projector.  How they are connected and integrate with the traditional 35mm projector and automation.  I also explain the distribution methods of the media files and the security used to protect the content from unauthorized access.

Looking back at the dangers of being a projectionist long ago

Writing by jamieg on Friday, 9 of January , 2009 at 6:23 pm

In this video I show you an old projection booth and the scars left from the early days of cinema projection.  I cover nitrate film (As in what is used to make Nitroglycerin, same stuff), how it was combustible and some of the fire safety procedures. I also talk about how a projectionist use to be a uni degree and what this entailed.
