  1. A lot of the techie history is very well documented at www.smpte.org . All the old documents are now stored on the site, and go back to 1916. I would say in the old days, they thought of "moving pictures" as motion capture so there was a lot of research in that space (i.e. motion blur, movement capture, film rates, camera movement vs actor movement, moving 3D capture, etc).
  2. I was testing some of the new fake LED lamps that have a flicker, but the flicker was a bit too obvious. I'm moving to using those small LED flashlights, they can really crank the light. Current lamp setup for those ... have a little piece of paper folded in half and on a wire placed over the led flashlight ... this allows a bit of a controlled flicker as the lamp moves.
  3. I shoot with both epic monochrome and scarlet, if your going for a 2.4 aspect ratio and doing a DCP at 2k, the bit height is only 858. So if your doing a 2k DI, then all you do is whatever sensor resolution you have, you move that to a 2k DI DCP in something like nuke or premiere, and you can't tell the difference between the epic and the scarlet. If you want to do a 4k DI (this is extremely rare) it's hard to match up the epic with the scarlet.
