[QUOTE="Stuart McKears"] No, film rushes weren't logged, takes were logged during the shoot, that's one of the purposes of marking (clapper board). Ideally this should still be the way to do it but time=money!!![/QUOTE] So the rushes were logged, just that it was done at the time of shooting, just as it's often done today (in fact on some shoots the continuity person does both jobs)...... [QUOTE] PS. Site promo: [URL]http://www.mckears.com/sphotofr.htm[/URL], select 1970s, bottom photo shows the difficult conditions that a film editor had to endure in those[/QUOTE] days! Hum, a different girl in every reel, to miss quote sailors....
