Episode 300 - 35mm Film Projection at the Byrd Theatre

Published: Jan. 5, 2016, 1 a.m.

In the world of the EM, one of the biggest and most interesting devices is the 35mm film projector.  In this episode, I teach you how to run your own carbon arc projector, cut cues, run a Brenograph machine, dim the lights and open the curtains! I worked as a projectionist for several years before starting my career, and as a box office attendant for a couple of years before that.   The Byrd Theatre is an amazing movie palace that is both still standing and still used to show movies daily! Information about the organ: Great photo of the organ:   Now, T-shirts!  I'll be taking pre-orders for the next two weeks, and if we have at least a dozen commitments, I'll be sending in the order to the printers (otherwise, I will refund your money).        These will be available to pre-order only until 1/18/16.
