Editing Synchronous Sound (1960)

The film discusses the process of editing synchronous sound in motion pictures, emphasizing the importance of synchronization between sound and image during filming and editing. It explains that sound is recorded separately on magnetic film while the action is shot, requiring special equipment to maintain synchronization. A clapstick is used to create synchronization cues, which are marked and referenced during the editing process. The film outlines the steps for locating and marking synchronization points, making cuts, and ensuring that sound and picture remain in sync throughout the editing process.
