Film Splicing
Strips of footage were hand cut and glued to the other strips of film. This had to be done as neatly as possible as they had to fit through the film rail so the film that the audience are going to be watching would run as smoothly as possible. There were 3 parts to the actual film; the base, emulsion and binder. The base of the film helped the emulsion to stay down which is the actual picture of the scene and the binder held everything together. -
