The fourth in a series of Leader films – a combination of super 8, 16mm and video. The image consists of strips of super 8 leader footage stamped with Kodak and Fuji identification marks, subjected to various colour inversions. For the soundtrack 16mm was used to create synthetic sound – sequences of textured Letratone applied directly to clear film were fed through a projector which translated the images into a variety of tones.
