Film Leader

Film Leader Countdown (old film with torn sprockets) from Movie Vigilante on Vimeo.
Film leader with simulated old film appearance with torn sprockets.

I've seen several film leader animations uploaded on YouTube and it gave me the idea to create my own. The one above is on Vimeo since I wanted to take advantage of its Vimeo Enhancer which is what gives it the appearance of an old film with torn sprockets.

I used Corel R.A.V.E. 2 for the animation, Audacity for the audio and Windows Movie Maker to edit before finally uploading it to Vimeo and applying its Enhancer effects.

It's important to note that this is not completely accurate and is only an approximate simulation of a typical film leader. Do not rely on this for authenticity.
