Video Transcript

"So, I'm going to demonstrate on this reel how to get the film on. This is the reel with two steel posts on it. You can see one right here, and one right here. I like holding the reel on my hand like this, and I use my thumb, as a guide. And I hold the film between my thumb and my finger like that, making it sort of stiff. And, I find that it's easiest to use like that. Most people if you gave this to, and said do it, it would take a while. But, there's a couple of little tricks that are vital. The first one is, if you squeeze it, and you hold it, and you just put it in, like that. And the two posts lock onto those sprocket holes, almost perfectly. And if you look at the size of this film, you can see it fits in there, absolutely perfectly. I've had a few students in my day, say that their reel was too small or defective. I've never seen that really to be the case. It's kind of hard though. So again, like this, on, and take up."
