Mini documentary- Behind the scenes of a cinema (2007 Film) 

This cinema did go full digital in the past few years with christie projectors. I hope it survives this lockdown crap as it has been operating over 40years

I had a mate that worked in a cinema, I was able to go up to the projectionist room and saw a lot of this first hand, but this documentary has information new to me, very well done.

This is a very good mini documentary. This dude explained every detail I wanted to know and is very informative. Thanks!

i like your point of view about the digital cinema :) our projectors are in use since 1948! =)

The window behind him when he talks reminds me of a cinema I worked at where the entire projection room had a large window for people to see. I felt a bit like a zoo animal!

very interesting especialy the part about sound coming from behind the screen... thanks for sharing mate

Really good doc, the whole production was well done.

great vid !! always interested in the workings of a cinema more plz !

Great video, VERY informative, thanks Steven

good stuff steven, that was really well made

Nice job & interesting, thanks. long live film !

wow that was really cool, i had no idea that's how cinemas worked- thanks for the info man.

These has been very interesting to hear .

Awesome. Nice job.

Well done!

that was very interesting stuff..I will never look at a movie theater the same.

Cool video!

wow this was cool! good job!

very very fascinating

The digital vs film is the same as with audio, CD versus vinyl, I prefer film but must admit the versatility of digital and convenience, I think digital is the way to go for long term archiving and restoration.

your question was also shot to be in this feature, but I didn't include it.

I'm waiting for the sequel - "Behind the scenes of an IMAX cinema"

I'm not actually in this video, however i did shoot and edit it over 2 visits to the cinema about 2 months apart (im lazy). My old friend matthew is a projectionist and the cinema is a small local venue

I remember seeing a movie where the film strip broke XD. Luckily, they had another one at standby.

when we used to lace up we threaded it though platter to the projector and laced it up then back to the cake stand (platter) you dont have to bypass the projector, it makes the only difference to film never touches the floor (my arse, i wonder how many people actually never let film touch the floor) good video though, i do miss my vic 9's and phillips cake stands.

Interesting!

this was easy to do because i know a number of people that work at this small family owned cinema.

Multiplex killed all the best cinemas in the UK, not particularly prod of working for two multiplexes in the past but I did enjoy it.

Thats a hell of alot of distance for film to travel in a cinema

Sounds like rocket science to me.

interesting but old school, i should show you what i do for work. it would blow your mind... 3* i would have done 4 but your cheap with your stars lol

hm this was quite interesting actually =]

uhh i try to be behind the camera not infront, the guy who is int he video is "matroxDV" and he has commented on this page, you can ask him questions and he may answer

well as said in the documenary, it could be out of date in just a few years but alot of peopel would lose their jobs including transportation of the films, and film printing and what not. same with projectionist, would lose their jobs to a task where u just press a few buttons.

Leave a comment people it dont take long!

Has anyone been caught at your cinema filming the screen, with the suspected intention of either selling it on DVD or putting it on the internet? Cinemas claim they have devices that detect people video'ing the screen. I don't buy that one little bit. and I strongly suspect it's MPAA bullshit propaganda , but can you set the record straight?

all you people want is moar moar moar moar!

show me the money

SHIT JOB....BUT I STILL MISS IT

ok i didnt watch the end lol

I miss my 35 mm !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
