GERMAN COLOUR FILM PROCESS
Berlin, Nov. 1.
The invention of a colour - film which enables the original colours. to be copied has Brous- ed great interest in the Ger- man film world.
This new three colour process, developed in the laboratories of the German ye Trust, is to be known as the "Agfa Pantachrom Process."
new
Coples made by this process are immediately ready to be shown in cinemas on all standard projectors. without any increase of filarnina- · tion and without any additional apparatus. That means that the colour films can be shown with the same projectors and under the same conditions as the old black and white films. They can carry a sound track exactly the same as the ordinary Almk.
Demonstrations given in Berlin to technical experts have elicited extremely favourable criticism — Transocean.
