Your friendly local projectionist!

Here we see Robin Hill making up the latest release. The Savoy projection room services all three screens. When the Savoy was converted to three screens, the back section was used to form screens two and three. To resolve the problem of how to project the picture onto the new screens from the same projection room, mirrors were used in a periscope arrangement.
Fascinating stuff!! many thanks to you and the staff at the Savoy for allowing members of Picture Penzance to see what goes on behind the scenes laugh# laugh#
 
On Tues 5th and Wed 6th April 2011, the Savoy projection room was completely modernised! All the old 35mm equipment you see in these photos has been removed and digital projectors capable of 3D movies have been installed, the movies now running from a hard drive and delivered by internet! I will try and get some photos soon.
