Recommended Setup for Viewing Newsfilm
Recommended setup for viewing newsfilm: light table, hand rewinds, sound box, synchronizer, splicer, moviescope viewer, and sprocket repair unit. In 1991, the NHPRC awarded a grant to the National Center for Film and Video Preservation to create a reference manual for caregivers of television newsfilm. Recently published, The Administration of Television Newsfilm and Videotape Collections: A Curatorial Manual, is a book for which archivists, among other keepers of these materials, have eagerly waited. The manual is discussed on page 9. Photo courtesy of the Louis Wolfson II Media History Center, Miami, Florida.
