Inside A Roll Of Camera Film: camera operator, keep a written record in sequence of every shot. A girl can be posted to take names and addresses just before the pictures are taken, keep them numbered in order, and make sure that none of the children in the line trade places.
Every roll of film, then, should be numbered as it is taken from the Camera and that number should be retained as a permanent file number. Negatives from each roll then should be numbered before the film is cut up for printing, and each roll should be kept, from then on, in a separate envelope. This method, if adhered to scrupulously, will prevent mixup.
In the 1890s inventors throughout the western world were simultaneously and independently working on just such mechanisms as Herschel envisaged. The solution came with roll film, which could be driven inside a roll of Camera film the Camera intermittently from a supply reel to a takeup reel, so that fresh film could be quickly put in place for successive exposures, at the rate of sixteen or more per second. The first system to meet with public favor as a form of entertainment was Thomas Alva Edison's Kinetoscope.
To realize maximum profits from this scheme, you must have the equipment and a system which permit you to operate on a high-speed and high-volume basis. Best Camera for the job is one of the all-electric automatic portrait machines which takes pictures on a roll of 70mm film and it should be synchronized with speedlights. You can take a couple of hundred pictures on each roll of this film, and process them all at once.
