J. Lamar King IMPOSTOR Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 I wish I knew exactly what you are asking. You frame your compositions with the markings in the viewfinder. What ground glass markings do you have? How did you get both 4:3 and 16:9 stills? Did you crop the 4:3 still to 16:9? Usually a 35mm camera shoots at a full aperture which goes beyond what is seen on the screen. You could hard matte it to a different aspect if you wanted too. If you have 16:9 (1.78:1) or 1.85:1 ground glass markings you can shoot a framing chart which is a chart that shows the exact outlines you see in your viewfinder. You give this to the telecine house and they use it to transfer the film with the same frame you are using in your viewfinder for composition. Wish I could have shot a feature before I could answer those questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
