Kodak Look Manager

Greg Gross · January 8, 2005

Hello John,

I really got excited about the Kodak Look Manager when I read about

Mr. Stephen Goldblatt ASC,using it for "Closer". Has Kodak done any

stastistics to show cost effectiveness of using program? Can we think

in terms of shaving a film's budget down by using program? As I under-

stand it a DP could be just about anywhere in the world and through e-mail

communicate with timer for appropriate color timing. Of course each would

have a calibrated monitor at their respective locations. I'm thinking in today's

world of filmmaking, that it does not hurt for a DP to have a budget saving

program in his camera bag. John, I'm going to drive you nuts today! Con-

cerning the calibrated Canon camera for Look Manager. Can the DP calibrate

the camera ? Do you know if a Rebel Canon 300 digital can be used,calibrated?

Have a nice weekend John!

I too was excited to read about look manager. I didn?t know you had to calibrate the camera though. ;) I have a Nikon d70 that I could use if it is correctable.

It seems like it would be a dream to work with.

Any info?

démonstration in Paris :

A l'occasion du Micro Salon de l'AFC , le 10 mars 2005 à la Fémis,

Venez découvrir la dernière née des pellicules négatives couleur de la gamme Vision2 :

la Vision2 250 Daylight 5205/7205

Cinquième film négatif de la gamme, il vous offre une structure d'image d'un très haut

niveau de précision et de stabilité, un grain ultra-fin et une échelle tonale conçue pour

assurer une efficacité maximale en postproduction optique comme numérique.

Et participer à la présentation du Kodak Look Manager System ( KLMS)

en situation de tournage et de post production.

Tout au long de cette journée, nous ferons la part belle aux applications pratiques :

de la prises de vue en condition de tournage, à l'application des nombreuses possibilités

offertes par ce système (simulation des différentes pellicules Kodak , des trucages

à la prise de vues et des techniques d'éclairage ou de traitement laboratoire )

A très bientôt au Micro Salon,

L'équipe Kodak Cinéma & Télévision

Could you work from an actual film frame, however? (I still shoot with my 35mm)

You'd have to scan the image to an appropriate digital format. I don't think Kodak Look Manager has LUTs and color correction matrices for still film scanners however, so there may be some "fudge factor".
