3、6-mm Television Release Prints Leaders and Cue Marks SMPTE ST 55:2011 Page 2 of 12 pages Foreword SMPTE (the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) is an internationally-recognized standards developing organization. Headquartered and incorporated in the United States of America, SMPTE h

4、as members in over 80 countries on six continents. SMPTEs Engineering Documents, including Standards, Recommended Practices and Engineering Guidelines, are prepared by SMPTEs Technology Committees. Participation in these Committees is open to all with a bona fide interest in their work. SMPTE cooper

5、ates closely with other standards-developing organizations, including ISO, IEC and ITU. SMPTE Engineering Documents are drafted in accordance with the rules given in Part XIII of its Administrative Practices. SMPTE ST 55 was prepared by Technology Committee 20F. Intellectual Property At the time of

6、publication no notice had been received by SMPTE claiming patent rights essential to the implementation of this Standard. However, attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. SMPTE shall not be held responsible for identifying

7、 any or all such patent rights. SMPTE ST 55:2011 Page 3 of 12 pages 1 Scope This standard specifies the make-up or assembly of leaders and cue marks for 35- and 16-mm analog audio motion-picture release prints for use in television studios. 2 Conformance Notation Normative text is text that describe

8、s elements of the design that are indispensable or contains the conformance language keywords: “shall“, “should“, or “may“. Informative text is text that is potentially helpful to the user, but not indispensable, and can be removed, changed, or added editorially without affecting interoperability. I

9、nformative text does not contain any conformance keywords. All text in this document is, by default, normative, except: the Introduction, any section explicitly labeled as “Informative“ or individual paragraphs that start with “Note:” The keywords “shall“ and “shall not“ indicate requirements strict

10、ly to be followed in order to conform to the document and from which no deviation is permitted. The keywords, “should“ and “should not“ indicate that, among several possibilities, one is recommended as particularly suitable, without mentioning or excluding others; or that a certain course of action

11、is preferred but not necessarily required; or that (in the negative form) a certain possibility or course of action is deprecated but not prohibited. The keywords “may“ and “need not“ indicate courses of action permissible within the limits of the document. The keyword “reserved” indicates a provisi

12、on that is not defined at this time, shall not be used, and may be defined in the future. The keyword “forbidden” indicates “reserved” and in addition indicates that the provision will never be defined in the future. A conformant implementation according to this document is one that includes all man

13、datory provisions (“shall“) and, if implemented, all recommended provisions (“should“) as described. A conformant implementation need not implement optional provisions (“may“) and need not implement them as described. Unless otherwise specified, the order of precedence of the types of normative info

14、rmation in this document shall be as follows: Normative prose shall be the authoritative definition; Tables shall be next; followed by formal languages; then figures; and then any other language forms. 3 Normative References The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this

15、 text, constitute provisions of this standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the standards ind

16、icated below. SMPTE RP 65:2000, Motion-Picture Enlargement/Reduction Rations 4 Reduction Ratio The reduction ratio in the production of the head and foot leaders from 35-mm motion-picture film shall be in accordance with SMPTE RP 65. SMPTE ST 55:2011 Page 4 of 12 pages 5 Orientation of Words and Num

17、erals 5.1 Orientation and dimensions of letters and numerals in this standard are with respect to 35-mm motion-picture film and are modified proportionally for 16-mm prints in accordance with Section 4. 5.2 The third, fourth, and fifth frames of the identification sections containing the title of th

18、e film and reel number shall be printed in clear letters on a black background so that they can be read normally when the reel is uppermost and the leading end or head of the film hangs down ready for threading. 5.3 The words “type of sound,” “aspect ratio,” “picture title,” “company,” “ series,” “

19、reel No.,” and “prod. No.” shall be printed lengthwise with the film in clear letters on a black background. 5.4 In sections where information is to be printed lengthwise with the film, clear framelines shall be included and all such printing placed within the outlined areas so that it can be read o

20、n 16-mm reduction prints. 5.5 In the trailer (foot leader), the title of the film and the reel number shall be printed so that they appear inverted when the remainder of the reel is uppermost and the film hangs downward. 6 Head Leader (See Figure 1) 6.1 Protective Section The protective section of t

21、he 35-mm leader shall contain frameline marks and consist of 8 ft (2.44 m) of transparent or raw stock; for 16-mm leader, 3.25 ft (0.99 m). When the protective leader has been reduced to a length of 6 ft (1.83 m) for 35-mm film or 2.5 ft (0.76 m) for 16-mm film, it shall be restored to its original

22、length. The last frame of this section shall contain the words “splice here” and an arrow pointing to the frameline between this frame and frame 1 of the identification section. The letters should be at least 0.125 in (3.18 mm) high. SMPTE ST 55:2011 Page 5 of 12 pages Note: Figure shows 35-mm film
