Event timing for telecine

• Find an obvious scene change in the source material
• ADD an event on the last field of the scene.
• Play into the next scene.
• Using the telecine primary make a large grading change. Press ENTER to confirm the new grading settings.
• On the Player mark an IN point a few frames before the scene change.
• Mark an IN point on the record deck.
• Hit PERFORM to start the edit and let it run for a few frames after the scene change has gone through, then press STOP.
• Rewind the record deck and jog through the edit. Look carefully at where the grading change happens. If the timings are correct, the grading change start on the first field after the scene change.
• If the corrections are early or late or on the wrong field you will need to adjust the O/P FWD and FIELD values on the TELECINE line in the Room Setup panel.

If the changes are happening late, determine how many frames and increase the O/P FWD value by that number.

If the changes are happening early, determine how many frames and decrease the O/P FWD value by that number.

Repeat the above steps until the grading changes are happening at the correct time.
