1、 1 Scope 1.1 This standard specifies the maximum dimensions of the film image area intended for projection from a 16-mm motion-picture film perforated one or two edges as specified in ANSI/SMPTE 109, and the placement of this area relative to the perforations and the reference edge of the film. 1.2

2、This standard also specifies the position of the emulsion and the rate of projection for 16-mm motion-picture film perforated one or two edges, and the projector thread-up distance between audio and picture for 16-mm motion-picture film with audio. 2 Normative references The following standards cont

For prints, the emulsion position is dependent upon the process of preparation and either emulsion to light source or emulsion to projection lens orientation may be encountered. (See figure 2 and note 5.) The actual emulsion position should be indicated on the leader and the f

11、ilm container by notation or diagram. 6 Projection rate The standard frame rate for motion-picture projection is 24 frames per second. However, it is recognized that nonstandard frame rates are sometimes used for specific applications. For example: 24, 25, or 30 frames/s may be used for motion pictu

12、res intended for television; higher or lower frame rates may be used for special effects and analysis, and nonstandard rates may be used for special motion-picture systems. A rate of 18 frames/s is often used for amateur silent films. The use of nonstandard frame rates requires notification and agre

13、ement of all parties concerned with the use of the particular film. SMPTE 233-2003 Page 3 of 4 pages 7 Relationship between audio and picture The projection thread-up for motion-picture films containing an audio record shall place the audio-scanning point ahead (in the direction of film travel) of t

14、he center of the picture being projected. Counting the frame in the projector aperture as zero, the audio-scanning point shall be opposite the center of the 26th frame for photographic audio or the 28th frame for magnetic audio, as specified in SMPTE 41 and SMPTE 112. If there is a significant dista

15、nce between the average observer and the loudspeaker when the audio record is reproduced, the distance from the center of the projected aperture to the audio-scanning point may need to be shortened in the projector thread-up to bring the picture and audio into synchronization for the average observe

16、r (because of the slower rate of travel of audio compared to that of light). If the average loudspeaker-to-audience distance is greater than 50 ft (15 m), the projector thread-up distance between projected picture and audio scan should be shortened by one frame for each nominal 50 ft of distance fro

17、m loudspeaker to average audience. Figure 2 Film as seen from projector light source looking toward lens NOTES 1 Camera and printer apertures The actual image on the film is significantly larger than the maximum area intended for projection, so that in placement of the images throughout the sequence

18、 of films, the tolerance is not restrictive of commercial practice. Upper limits have been established through consideration of good practice in avoiding overlap, encroachment upon areas reserved for audio records, flare from perforation edges, etc. Lower limits are similarly related to the avoidanc

19、e of image effects at a defined edge, tolerances in film positioning, etc. 2 Projector aperture Dimensions B, D, and E in table 1 define the maximum image area on the film that is available for projection. They do not define the opening in the aperture plate of a projector. The size of this opening

20、may differ from dimensions A and B, for example, because of the physical separation necessary between the aperture plate and the film to avoid scratching the film, or the slant of the marginal rays accepted by the lens. 3 Actual projected area It is recognized that, in many cases, the actual film im

21、age area that is projected may be smaller than the projectable maximum and, in some cases, may be nonrectangular (for example, an irregular four-sided figure bound by either straight or curved lines). Such departures may result from equipment considerations such as slight inconsistencies among lense

22、s, screen sizes, etc; from geometric limitations such as the screen surface being at an angle other than 90 from the SMPTE 233-2003 Page 4 of 4 pages projection axis, or being nonplanar, or both; and from aesthetic considerations such as pictorial composition within more restrictive image limits. In

23、 the absence of specific instructions to the contrary, it is intended that the actual projected film image area be the largest appropriately-shaped figure that can be inscribed within the specified dimensions. When the picture outline on the screen is defined by the projector aperture, it is customa

24、ry to round the corners of the projected film area. A maximum corner radius of 0.020 in (0.51 mm) at the film plane is recommended. 4 Film perforations Film intended for projection with this image area is normally perforated as specified in ANSI/SMPTE 109. 5 Contact prints When a relatively small nu

25、mber of prints is required, contact prints are often made from 16-mm original materials, resulting in the emulsion position toward the light source. The majority of 16-mm release prints are printed by contact from a 16-mm intermediate or by reduction from a 35-mm intermediate in order to protect the

26、 originals. The resulting prints generally have the emulsion side toward the projection lens. This permits intercutting of prints and originals without requiring a change of picture or sound focus during projection. Annex A (informative) Additional data A.1 Centerlines The centerlines of the image a

27、rea are given for convenience in interpreting the standard, facilitating such applications as the optical design of equipment, and assisting in the understanding of suitable mechanical embodiments related to projectable image area. A.2 Projectable image area Essentially, the entire image within the

28、maximum established by this standard will be transferred in such operations as reduction or enlargement printing (SMPTE RP 65), for television broadcasting (SMPTE 96), etc. Since the entire area will be presented, it is important that the projectable area include only material that meets recognized

29、standards for technical and artistic excellence. A.3 Image area for television It is recognized that home television receivers are adjusted to show a distribution of picture sizes, ranging downward from the maximum. Guides to picture composition, based upon a statistical survey of receivers in use,

30、are presented in SMPTE RP 27.3. Note that some portion of the audience will see the entire transmitted area, but for certainty in presentation of critical information over broadcast television, such information should be confined to a smaller, central area.
