Seems to me that your only other option then is to get your 2 looping units
set up, and make sure the 2 film reels are exactly the same length. From
there, obviously you have to do it by eye.
I have never seen any sort of set up that can successfully do this... And I
have tried before. The problem is that once you have your two identical
film reels you need to make sure they start on the exact right frame. And
even if you succeed in doing this... Its rare to find 2 units that will
speed up at the exact same rate.
While I love the aesthetic of film, there is a reason that all large shows
and productions are now run digitally.
