Theo Sundal Holen Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Bear in mind that both Domino and 3 Kings were shot on reversal stock but cross processed in negative chemicals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted March 15, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted March 15, 2009 I am still at work, slow though, with our Gigabitfilm, ISO 40, advertisement short in 35 mm. The stock undergoes reversal treatment but then we need to produce an internegative and positives on Gigabitfilm HDR, ISO 32, for enough contrast on the screen. The original is rather grey and white than black and white. The pictures blow me out the shoes, even the third generation shows no grain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member John Sprung Posted March 17, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted March 17, 2009 i'm looking movies shot on 35mm reversal stock.any examples would be greatly appreciated. thanks. The river rapids stuff in "African Queen" was shot on Monopack, the ancestor of ECO. Then they made negative separations to intercut with the rest of the show, which was three strip Technicolor. That was the reason for 35 reversal in the first place, to get around the logistical constraints of three strip. -- J.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Jackson Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Also... the 'Sniper' scenes in "Phone Booth" were shot on reversal if i remember correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Riggs Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 A lot of Spike Lee movies have at least some sections shot on 35 reversal, Clockers was mentioned, He Got Game, 25th Hour, Son of Sam are some of the others I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topher Ryan Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Buffalo 66 was shot on on reversal Anyone have more specifics on their process? Stocks etc... I was thinking they used a reversal stock that has since been discontinued, but I may be thinking of an another film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Compton Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Anyone have more specifics on their process? Stocks etc... I was thinking they used a reversal stock that has since been discontinued, but I may be thinking of an another film. Buffalo 66 was shot on KODAK 7239. It was cross processed. The DP was Lance Accord. The director wanted a vintage 'NFL highlight films' look. What type of look do you want? Vivid colors or contrasty desaturated colors ? Wardrobe and Set Design also play a major part in creating the look you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Anthony Vale Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Buffalo 66 was shot on KODAK 7239. It was cross processed. The DP was Lance Accord. It was shot on 35mm, & it was NOT cross processed. The 07-98 AC had a brief article about it. That issue is currently on sale for $1.00 http://www.ascmag.com/store/product.php?pr...at=0&page=1 Probably more for shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of 'King Solomon's Mines'' the African locations was shot on Monopack, actually kodachrome. If you can catch a35mm print, you might be surprised that the dupe negs from Monopack were sharper and less grainy than the 3-stpip original negs. The 3-strip had richer color and tones/contrast.

Ballinger, like Leo said it wasn't cross processed. Accord wanted to keep the 70's NFL film look to it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freya Black Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Anyone have more specifics on their process? Stocks etc... I was thinking they used a reversal stock that has since been discontinued, but I may be thinking of an another film. I know they had big trouble finding a lab to process the film as the labs that process ektachrome movie film tend to do 16mm/s8 as thats what ppl tend to shoot it in. Not sure they didn't even have to codge something together in the end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure they didn't even have to codge something together in the end? This is from that interview I linked on page one: GALLO: ... So I decided to shoot reversal. The people at Kodak said, "Well, first of all, it doesn't really exist, and we don't have it in 1000-foot rolls, and we don't have it doubleperfed, and you can't process it, and you can't print from it." But there was just no way I was going to take no for an answer. Kodak, the giant billionaire company in Rochester, you know-my film is not even a speckle in their evolution ~ on a weekend, cut 70,000 feet in 1,000-foot, double-perf rolls of 35mm film so that I could be ready to shoot on that Monday. Thank you Mr. Kodak. FILMMAKER: Did YOU have dailies on this movie? GALLO: No, I didn't see a foot of film until months after we wrapped. FILMMAKER: Not even on video? GALLO: Months after we wrapped. It took three weeks for them to even begin to build the machine that could process the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
