Inside the projection room at the Hyde Park Cinema. Which is an ace place to see a film if you're ever in Leeds.

Strange, I was only recalling a few days ago that it's been some time since I've been inside a projection room, and wondered if they had all shrunk to the size of a shoe-box with digitization, but this looks much like I remember from around the 1950s, so thanks for sharing this.

That's just awesome! So neat that you were able to tag along and see this!

@wordpixman Arthur you would have enjoyed the trip because the projectionist was explaining how much more reliable these machines are than the digital server!

Definitely a case of who you know rather than what you know to get you in here!! Really interesting shot. Hope the film was good too!

Fab shot

Another great vintage shot. The b and w contrasts are fabulous

I bet the quality is different too - these are probably more 'alive' - a bit like vinyl!

Cool I don't think I've ever seen the inside before :)

Fascinating location photo! Nicely photographed!

cool picture, this brings back a few memories of sitting in the projector room at our local cinema when I was a bit smaller to watch the latest hit.

Cool shot. What movie was playing?
posted May 3rd, 2012  
Did you know someone or did you just pop in for a quick shot? Great in B&W.

@bdb3471 No movie on - it was a kind of meeting.

@anndee Oh - you have to read the story in the main album. It was a random gatecrash of a meeting.

Thanks Alison, I see it now. Guess I should look around more. ;-) What a lucky chance!

Super fun and interesting. Would definitely go the Hyde Park if ever in Leeds.
