Guest will Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 We are having some spots shot on 35mm soon. I am having all the footage scanned and put on a hard drive. The SD edit will be done from Digital Beta. My question is what is the best file format and what resolution is the most cost effective to eventually go to 1080p? Since this is not destined for a film out is it ok to just scan at around 1920x1080...or should it be higher? Sorry I don't have much more information about film stock or who is doing the telecine at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Brereton Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 The usual post route would be something like: shoot 35mm, then TK via Spirit to HD-CAM. Then do a down convert from HD-CAM to DigiBeta for your off-line. Lastly, conform and final grade at on-line from your HD-CAM masters. You mention having your film 'scanned' rather than just telecined. As you're not going to a Filmout, this is unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
