Purpose
The one product is the ceveloped him. The cond tions necessary fc- '.he dcs-cd
nrd (sconomicully feasible end product r.ust be predictable and controllab’e by she
producer. This unit gives the producer the ab ty of complete y contro img :ne rela-
tlonship between tho film, lens and copy during phetug-uphy. with pred ctabo results
and o minimum of effort.
Animation is the -esu t of the photographer's ability to photograpn the artwork and
ces in tho relationships necessary for ore movement to flow smoothly into another
The key so thaS ability is "registration " It is this unit's ab .ity to r&rv.u n registration
that allows tho photogrophor to position cels for smooth movement devoid of
"jumping" of the projectec image on the screen. Registration is assurec by she pegs
in each peg track on the table top Replacing one cel with another on the pegs will
insure that the new cel's position relat-ve to the camera will =e t-.e same.
This registration is maintained also in the care-a by the intermittent registration pin
that rogisters tho film in the aperture and by tho keyed column that allows ve-
movoment of the camera and the Ions in registration to the compound
However, the registration maintained during the pholog-aphy w only be as good
as that maintained during tho exocut on of the artwork The OXBERRY* col pure!,
and drawing disc described in shio manual are for tho purpose of insur ng that oJ
registration will moot tho neods of the an mato' during photography

is used whon th.* film is loaded directly into tho camera. Cioaranco
for thread ng the film is made m the following manner: (See Fig 3)
a) Place the power switch in the off position.

2 1 3 Each peg track is capable of being moved norizonlally ncopendentl>
of the other peg tracks or the compound, e . this allows tho back¬
ground cel to be moved while the foreground cel remains n :s same
position relative to tho lens. The two inner 12 field peg tracks are
controlled by the handwheels m fror.t of the table top. The right
handwhee ccr.tros the track above the insert (top t 2 ted track),

are used to matntan the ce position are shaped n the fo owing
manner. Two pogs aro oblong and ono is round The center pog <s

prevent angular rmsadjustment of the cel. The center hole in the ecl
is exactly the size of tho pog. Tho slotted holes in the col exact y
fit the thickness of the oblong pec. but are longer to allow the
col to be put on and taken off starting from both onds without mar-
ring the holes. When the unit is delivered peg tracks are provided
with four ob ong and three round pegs on each peg track A col
may therefo-e be positioned directly on the ooticc-' ax s. cr to the

3.2 Frame Counter: (Horn 6. F.g. 17)
3 2.1 The function of this countor is to constantly denote the numbor of
frames advanced to any socuonce. The action of the counter la as
follows:
a) The counter w charge its reading by the number of frames tho
film advances. It will add when tho film s odvanced forward ond
subt-act when the film is advanced in rovorso
b) The counter may bo reset to "0“ by piosslng the button (Itom 4.
Fig. 17) in and releasing If th s s done ot the nta-t of each sequence,
tho operator will havo an indication through each ooquonce ns to
how many framos hnvo boon advanced
c) If t is necessary to change the count on the counter for any
reason, the D git Selecter (Item 7. F.g. 17) is provided for this
purpose
d) This counte' w only count advances and not exposures. Tho film
may be advanced without exposure and the counter -ending will
charge with each advance.
327 A p-edeterm ning counter (P/N 5320-74) is available for controlling
tho number o? frames that w II bo included in any sequence. When
a count is set and that count is reached, the unit will be inoperab'e
sign tying to tho operator the end of tho sequence

3.3. Sizing:
3.3 1 Sizing is accomplished in the following mannor:
a) Remove the projection larro fro-n the holding bracket and place
it on tno viewer as shown in Fig. 16. Place the toggle switch in the
"auto" or "on" position.
b) Press the "Viewer" actuator (Item 11. Fig. 17) mo-en-anly and
release When tho viewer is in position, the indicator light (Item 10.
Fig. 17) will glow.
c) Activate the zoom motor: Place tho zoom power switch (Item 13.
Fig. 17) In the "ON" position. The indicator light (Item 12. Fig 17)
will glow when the switch is n the "on" position
d) Select speed of zoom motor Rotate knob (Item 14. F,g. 17) to the
IT dway position NOTE: Experience v/.th me unit w. dictate when
the zoom moto' should move faster O' s ower than th s Ir general,
for short changes of camera position s owo- speed* should bo u»od
and for long changes of camera postior the taste- speeds a-e more
deair able.
e) Energize the zoom motor: Push the energizing switch (Item 15.
Fig. 17) either up or down for the camo-a direction noedod and hold
tho switch until tho camo-n position la correct as ndicoted by the
projocted reticle. The reticle s marked with three rectang’es The
smallest rectangle ie dotted ond allows for n 25% cutoff for T.V. Tho
next larger rectangle Ind cates tho area that will be pro.ected on th*
ocroon Tho largest rcctonglu indicates tho area that will be oxpoaod
on tho film. (Sco Fig 19)
19. Reticle Maritime* Note: Outer rectangle shows th.r nren of the film that
will be exposed. This i.s larger than the area of the film that will be projected
on the screen, to keep dost ar.d lint that may collect in the aperture from
marring the projected Image.
0 Deactivate the zoom circu ts: Place tr.e zoom power switch (Horn
13. Fic 17) in the “OFF" position This precaution will avoid the
possib lily of the camera be ng accidentally moved during the
photography.
g) Return the viewer to its normal position: Press tho "viewer"
actuator (item 11. F.g. 17) momentarily and release f the toggle
switch controlling tho projection bmp was placed >n the "ON" poni
lion, place it : n the "OFF" position.
h) Sequel el change of sizirg. Place self-adhering tape on the un-
marked positioning scale and mark the tape at tho necessary inter¬
vals for each exposu-e. The camera is then roved to the successive
markings on the tape after each exposure
34 Zooms. This unit prov des tie use- with tho ability to make either a stop
motion zoom or a continuous zoom
3.4 1 A stop motion zoom <a made n the followirq mannoi
a) P lace self-acher ng tape on the unmarked scale. Mark tho tape
at the beginning of the zoom nr:! the ond of tho zoom M.irk in
between in such o manner that tho cpacirg between tho frames in
:• o beginr rg d ..: tho end of U e zoom Is lost! than in tho middle
of the zoom When sequential f-.imos am exposori nt each murk,
th a p'oeedure will result in a zoom that w l have o s ow start and
a alow stop ond give a phasing effect on tho acroon,
34 2 A continuous zoom i* made n the fo owing manner
a) After positioning me comera for tho start of the zoom as de¬
scribed ir (urn the rheoatat (Itam 14 Fig 17) ua for ou it wll
go counterclockwise ond mark the scab for the erd of the zoom
b) A dry -un is mado I -st to check the speed at which thu zoom
should be made fo- the number of fiomou to be incorporated.
c) Turn the rheoatat (llem 14. Fig. 17) os for counterclockwise as
it wil go. close the auxiliary shutter, mark down tho frame counter
reading and tho zoom counter reading.
d) Place tho mode selector in continuous und turn tho rheostat
s owly clockwise, ncreosing the -ate of turning until the max mum
doaired cpcod is reached. As the ond of tho zoom is noarod. turn
•-e rheostat counterclockw.se slowing an it approaches the end o‘
tho scale
c) Check tho frame counter -enc ng against the or ginol reading to
dele-mine if the number of frames s correct. NOTE. It may bo de-
a rable to try th o v. thou! f.lm a few Simon tho Tirol bmo thin typo of
zoom :s attempted n o'der to get a "feel" of the contro. t should
ce borne in r nd that deterioration occurs in the sprocket holes
each t me they are transported and because of this "he f ’m should
be transported as little as possible.
0 Return the f n and the camera position to the original read ngs
Open the oux liar/ shutter and proceed as delated in (d).

g) This typo of zoom when done correctly will approximate exactly
the required zoom, e., if a sixty frame zoom is wanted ths may
result in a 58 or 64 frame zoom If * s imperative that the zoom
start and stop at exactly the p-oper fe!d and exact y t-.e numbo-
of framos. then the stop me: on techniques should be used
