New UltraPan8 music video "Limitless"

Recommended Posts

This is the first officially commissioned UltraPan8 music video as per flutist, Rozalind MacPhail. It is called "Limitless". Rozalind wanted to invoke her wonderful upbringing on Toronto's mystical and beautiful Ward Island. The film is part of her national DVD audio/video release and tour called "Head First", i.e. http://seaandbescene.com/2013/11/rozalind-macphail-launches-her-head-first/

You can find the film here, i.e. https://vimeo.com/81306448

Technical: UltraPan8 2.8 Bolex camera w/ 10mm Zeiss Tevidon. Camera modification by Jean-Louis Seguin (bolextech@gmail.com). I purchased the last remaining local rolls of Ektachrome 100D color reversal for this video. I used a variable ND filter at f5.6. Mostly tripod mounted. Processing by Niagara Custom Lab with scan by John Gledhill at Bitworks.org.

I wish I had a 2.8:1 computer monitor. I can't help seeing the image as cropped top and bottom, as distinct from widened left and right.

 

But if I turn the room lights off to create that cinema feel, and get comfy in my couch - it becomes awesome.

Thank you kindly, gentleman.

 

Carl: Actually... we can get you a little closer to your dream monitor. Phillips had previously released an LCD with a classic 2.39 Cinemascope aspect ratio, i.e. http://dcinema.wordpress.com/2010/07/12/philips-release-2-391-anamorphic-tv-with-2560x1080p-resolution/
