Color motion picture print film with desaturated color space

Abstract

A silver halide light sensitive motion picture photographic color print element is disclosed comprising a support bearing on one side thereof: a primary blue sensitive and secondary green and red sensitive yellow dye image-forming unit comprising at least one light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith yellow dye-forming coupler; a primary red sensitive and secondary green and blue sensitive cyan dye image-forming unit comprising at least one light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith cyan dye-forming coupler; and a primary green sensitive and secondary blue and red sensitive magenta dye image-forming unit comprising at least one light sensitive silver halide emulsion layer having associated therewith magenta dye-forming coupler; wherein the primary and secondary light sensitivities in each of the dye image-forming units result in ratios of the primary color linear sensitivity of the unit to the same color secondary linear sensitivity of each of the other dye image-forming units of from 30:1 to 3:2. Color print film silver halide photographic elements with crossed blue, green and red sensitization in each of the yellow, magenta and cyan dye image-forming units thereof enable the production of projected images having desired black densities and colored images having desired degrees of color saturation.
