Arthur was one of the small cadre of Colorfilm staff who had a hand in more feature films in those glory days of the 70s and 80s than anyone else in the industry. He, negative matcher Margaret Cardin, lab liaison Bill Gooley and optical effects specialist Roger Cowland, were the dream team!
Dominic Case was the Technology Manager for the Atlab Group for many
years, and on the Board of the AFC during the period that the NFSA was a
part of that organisation. He also worked for the NFSA briefly as head
of the Film Branch, and for a year as Development Manager. He gave a
paper at the last SMPTE conference on the difficulties faced by film
archives in the digital era.
