Hello, Concerning the original timeline (eQ), in some shots there is no repeated frames, and on other shots, there are repeated frames. The technical report posted by monday, have a description of a each shot. For example on the first keying sequence, the actress footage was shot 18fps and slowed do...

Hello, I hope you are well. The playback rate is 24 f.p.s There will be in a few days, or next week, a final technical report with tech parameters of each shot. Part of the footage was time-stretched (under-crank), always using "replicate" mode (not interpoling). Some footage was processed...

The characteristic curve shows that there would be aprox 16 camera stop from minimal density to maximal density. This may means that in practice, we could be working, with may be around 13 or 14 stops of exposure latitude with this new 500T stock (?). With that latitude, I think it would be great th...

That's great news. Thanx Rick for the info.

i don't know. i'm not that fond of having that kind of control. i like it when a stock has a look of its own, rather than having to create it in post. otherwise i might as well shoot hd. ;-) yes, the exr had very saturated blue and also brought out the reds and yellows very well. a polarizer, a des...

hello, from my experience, the vision2 50D (through Pro8/01 release up to now, that is a reformatted stock from "5201" 35mm stock) is an excellent emultion... it present much more exposure latitude than previous EXR 50D (so nammed Pro8/45 in super-8). The new "01" stock have less...

I remember John Pytlak as a nice person, even if I never knew him more than in web forums, I remember him as a person always speaking from knowledge. It was really cool to have him on-board on those small gauge forum, as for instance filmshooting On the Halogenuros project, I did use the LAD system....

maybe i've just missed something, it happens. ;-) may be or may be it is related that my english level is not the best but... i beleive having read that terminology somewhere else. in spanish we say "largometraje" for a feature and "cortometraje" for a short film, and in french ...

Hola, the short feature was not accepted at Rhode Island film festival, but if possible I will apply to other film festivals, in order that the short feature could be seen in 35mm somewhere in an foreign international festival. the good news is that the short feature was finally accepted on a festiv...

Hello, Park Road Post in Wellington, New Zealand, do have a Spirit Datacine machine with the super-8 adapter (on Super16mm gate). The machine can output 2K DPX RGB 10 bit log files. Vertical resolution is truly 2k (1556 lines) , however horizontal resolution is interpolated to reach 2k. This is due ...

Hello, I would recommend you to shoot all your film on super-8, the interiors would work well with the "17" vision2 200T stock with proper light base level. I have over-exposed this stock around 1/2 stop from my averaged light-exposure-readings (spot meter) with good results. I also suppot...

Hi John, Would you be happy to attend a 35mm screening of that "Halogenuros" reasearch short-film ? If so, let me know, and I could send you a 35mm print, so that you could see the film and may be share it with your friends at Kodak. Then the idea could be that this print to travel to Euro...

Hello, ... a bit non related commentary concerning H.264 and second generation coding : the chinese digital terrestrial broadcasting standard DMB-T "China DMB-T" used on the "upper-layer" at video (and audio) source coding a comppression scheme nammed as AVS. AVS was created in C...

hello, how are you? from what I have seen on my experience with both stocks, we can see in your pictures some "electronic noise" and/or "grain exageration" due from the CRT telecine technology that was used for transfering. (as I assume you have done as workflow). but if you coul...

hello Roger,
what camcorder are you considering in this question?

bye bye,
Daniel
