And since the movie is shown at 2.35:1 that means the digital master is something like 817p :eyepop:

edit: actually since the movie was shot onto HDCAM cassettes it's even worse :eyepop::eyepop:

quote:

Each D11 source frame is composed of a luminance channel at 1920 x 1080 pixels and a chrominance channel at 960 x 1080 pixels. During compression, each frame's luminance channel is subsampled at 1440 x 1080, while the chrominance channel is subsampled at 480 x 1080.

it was a terrible loving idea, they should have just shot on film. Then they could milk 4k and 8k remasters for years.

so was that a million dollars a minute?

and do they not have cinema-grade gopro equivalents that cost at least a few grand but shoot less shittily? or do they and peter jackson decided to cheap out?

it was shot on dvcpro50 which is 422 so it doesnt look that bad, i remember at the time i actually liked the style just cause it was ~different~

so if someone says the bluray of that movie is useless you can not only say the ending was shot on 35mm but also... the dvd has loving chroma subsampling!!!

if no-one made films with the bad digital cameras which were available at the time, it's hard to see where the drive towards decent quality digital cameras would have come from.

meh

I got the impression at the time that people in those days were doing it to ~Rebel Against The Hollywood System~. almost like a Dogme 95 thing but video instead of 35mm film.

circa 2005 i went to a film festival where the head guy was all “We’ve got people sending in submissions shot on DIGITAL VIDEO!” like it was some big DiGiTaL ReVoLuTiOn thing, and not because it was cheaper and because a lot of newbie independents were lazy babies that whined shooting on film was So HardTM.

there were a bunch of wannabes around that time who called themselves poo poo like Digital Filmmakers because they were totally Rebels and Revolutionaries and not just idiots without the budget to afford 35mm.

IIRC and IMHO digital movie cameras didn’t start to not suck until they started making them try to be more than just high end video cameras. which started happening around the time the Panavision Genesis, Red One, etc. started to get on the scene.

i would imagine that a significant chunk of blair witch being shot on hi-8 and still making a mountain of money had something to do with it
