Threading a 35mm projector

Clearly you're an idiot that knows nothing about projection. You're probably a pasty face concession worker who got a brief tour of the projection room and thinks you know everything.
100 feet of clear leader is between $5 and $20, depending on the supplier and that will easily cover two projectors for 6 or more months.
And you're blocked for lacking the ability to read.

@GGigabiteM The buckets weren't visible in the video and since my theater uses a different projector, Christie, motoring the leader is much easier. Just wondering, I don't know your projector like you do.

Bonne explication pour le chargement du film, mais hélas tout cela a été filmé beaucoup trop vite!!!

My only hope is that videos like these are never used for future reference.
As film really is king!!!
Im a photographer, and to be honest, using 35mm in a film camera, or SLR are very similar. I think Ilford's film is basically Kodak 35mm now.

Awesome video. Definitely different from how I have to thread up our projectors.
Why don't you motor the leader through instead of piling it up on the floor?

@MrHat2184 It didn't get piled on the floor, there were black plastic bins under every machine that the leader was piled in to avoid getting dirty.
"Motoring it through" would be a pain since the flywheel would keep the film going after the motor was turned off and have to be stopped with a rag, which could become stuck.

What projector is this? The cinema I work at uses Christie Projectors and I want to become a projectionist as soon as I can because I hear that we are going digital by the end of next year.

Six minutes? You must not have worked at AMC.

Why are people idiots that can't read that I had a camera in my hand? The world literacy fund needs more donations.
And sadly I'm not a projectionist anymore, our theater went digital and either fired or moved all the projectionists to other more degrading departments, time to find a new job...
The new NEC projectors are huge, ugly and have a horrid resolution (like 1152x806) and you can see the huge pixels on the screen, it looks ten times worse than 35mm.
