Kalee VistaVision projector with Mole-Richardson high intensity carbon arc lamp
In these machines the film runs up from bottom to top
As the film frame is twice the normal size, eight sprocket holes instead of the usual four, and still runs at 24 fps
the film speed is twice normal
That is 180 feet per minute instead of 90
The film reel size was 4000ft, a full reel running 22 minutes
The full new reel of film is placed in the lower magazine
The film enters the soundhead before, not after, the projection gate
On leaving the top of the soundhead the film takes a half turn and enters the horizontal projection gate
crossing it from left to right, viewed from the front, and passing horizontally before the projection lens
On emerging from the right side of the projector proper the film takes another half turn and runs upward into the upper or take-up magazine
