mortor drive

History - This was used by Pearce Studios Ltd from the mid-60's. All the Hitch-Hiker animated graphics was shot on it. It achieved as many as 26 multiple passes without drift. In 1983 it was adapted for computer control and the Max Headroom 3D wireframe was shot direct from an aircraft instrumentation display frame-by-frame onto 35 mm - again using multiple passes (one for each colour).
