The Test Card Circle Magazine |
30-Line Television: Baird for All to See! |
I also have a comprehensive collection of the excellent quality light music used to accompany the BBC test card and am a member of the Test Card Circle. I have a copy of virtually every tape from 1959 through to 1982 on CD. The tapes were 1/2 hour long up until 1972 and then were 1 hour in length. Most of these CDs have been made from the original BBC coded music master recordings and the later ones are therefore in stereo!
In addition to the BBC test card music, I have copies of the music used to accompany the Channel 4 test card when the channel started broadcasting on 2 November 1982. I have copies of the first nine 1-hour tapes used, again from the stereo masters, as well as the original Channel 4 theme. I also have a collection of library music recordings (recordings that were not commercially available) and much of it was used for television theme tunes and interval music.
From 2000 until 2004, the photographs were taken on a Nikon Coolpix 995 digital camera. From 2005, a Nikon DSLR camera has been used (a D70 from 2005-2009, a D90 from 2010-2011, a D7000 from 2012-2017 and a D7500 from 2018), together with an AF Micro Nikkor 60mm f2.8 D lens. For illumination, either an off-camera Nikon SB600 flash unit with diffuser or a ring LED unit on the lens was used.
