S16 Widescreen


J. Anthony Gonzales

Recommended Posts

Looking to shoot a short film in Spaghetti Western style. I figure that shooting S16 and framing for widescreen (2.35:1) with modern film stocks and blown up to 35 can give an approximate look and grain to those good old Techniscope films. Does anybody have any experience in shooting a S16 widescreen film? Any recommendations of films produced in this manner?

 

Thanks,

If you happened to be in Berlin festival this year, the closing film '25 degrees en Hiver' was shot on S16 7274 mostly and blown up to 2.35 CScope.

The DOP Walther Vanden Ende is raving about it.

One production is currently being shot ("Guernsey") , DOP Richard van Oosterhout.

"Calvaire" was shown in Cannes this year.

So far we did about 7 or 8 features like this including "Aaltra" shot in B&W.
