Quality Film
& Video
Has been in business for over 40
years! That's a long time, no matter
how you cut it. NOW! THE HISTORY OF FILM
IN BALTIMORE Forty years ago no one knew what
video tape was. Sure, there were some early attempts to record TV shows on
magnetic tape, but the only sure fire way to record a TV show was on film.
This was known as a "Kinescope". TV stations used movie film
projectors and tele-cine devices of "film-chains" to enable them to
broadcast 16mm movies. Motion Picture Film was KING
and Quality Film & Video, known in those days as Quality
Film Labs, Inc. was right in the thick of it. . ., processing the daily
"News" footage for local channel 13 WJZ-TV as well as all of the 16mm
film shot by every motion picture film production company in the city.
With all this history available, we thought we would share some of it with you on the web. Periodically we will be publishing excerpts from a new book being written by Pete Garey the President of Quality Film & Video. This book is a compilation of humorous stories along with some behind the scenes insight into the technical side of motion picture film processing and printing. The title to his book is "Forty Some Odd Years Ago" Click here to read excerpts Book Chapter 1 Quality Film & Video
