New Richard Wirth Article…The SMPTE Time Code
This is a perfect detailed follow up to the Smith Block and video editing stories I posted. Here’s the story of how the time code came to be and, having been around for almost half a century, how it has withstood the test of time.
Some of the most interesting parts of this are the rare videos he found while doing the research – like the CMX600 promotional film that gives a detailed demonstration of the first nonlinear editor in detail by taking you through the editing of a musical piece. Thanks to our friend Richard Wirth for composing this very interesting article. Enjoy and share! -Bobby Ellerbee
