Patrons of the Nitrate Picture Show understand the crucial role that projectionists play in the success of the festival. Without them, this unique cinematic experience would simply not be possible. We are pleased to offer you this video, which provides insight into their work, personal observations on preparing vintage nitrate prints for projection, and an explanation of why it takes a team of three to project one of the screening programs. The video includes interviews with the Projection Team, a filmed tour of the Dryden Theatre projection booth, and additional footage of the film inspection and repair process, as well as the nitrate vaults at the Louis B. Mayer Conservation Center.
