I’m delighted to report that my article ‘The Beginnings and the Ends of Film: Leader Standardization in the United States and Canada (1930-1999)’ has just been published in The Moving Image (Fall 2016, Vol 16 No. 2). This is the result of five years of research-creation exploring the fascinating worlds of moving image archives, cinema projection, and the technical accomplishments of AMPAS and SMPTE.
