| You are missing a very serious reality with Red and HD for theatrical "film" releases-
We are crossing a threshold where "film" as we know it is simply going away-
In the past and present (at least for Steven Spielberg) film is shot on film at 60hz reference- production audio is at 60hz reference- All is pulled down to .99 speed for post, then taken back to 1.0 speed in the theatre, with music being .01% sharp to drive the perfect pitch folks crazy-
the new paradigm is that 23.98 IS 1.0 speed on set and the film speed adjustment can be done as a after mix process- In many ways this is easier because the telecine process is technically unneeded.
it still is not making the transition easy though- |
