ABSTRACT:
A system for controlling the integrity of an image recorded on a first recording medium, for example, film, and transferred to a second recording medium, for example, videotape. The system includes a control chart having a set of chart control information and a plurality of control strips each having a set of strip control information. The control chart, which is for use by a cinematographer on a set, is recordable on the film under substantially the same conditions under which the image is recorded onto the film. Each of the control strips, which are for use by a telecine colorist at a transfer machine, is formatted to correspond to a different type of commercially available film so that one of the control strips corresponds to the film on which the image is recorded. The set of strip control information on each of the control strips includes information substantially the same as information included in the set of chart control information. Thus, the same control information is provided to both the cinematographer and the telecine colorist. The sets of chart and strip control information include information for use by the telecine colorist in adjusting the settings of the transfer machine such that the integrity of the image transferred to the videotape is substantially the same as the integrity of the image recorded on the film, for example, density, luminance, and color information.
