[Frameworks] Films made on 15/70mm

[Francisco Torres]

this makes imax look rinky dink...
''The production was shot with an innovative camera that places a 360°
image on each single frame of 10-perf 70mm film. It was then projected onto
a circular screen using a special projector mounted in the ceiling above
the audience, engulfing viewers in a continuous, seamless large-format
image.''

> The thing about improvised 70mm stuff is that there are basically two 70mm

> aerial camera work and the like, while the other has the perfs closer in
> so that there is room for sound tracks outside the perfs.
>
> It's traditional to shoot 65mm in camera, and then contact print the 65mm
> camera original to a 70mm print since the frame layout and perf positions
> are the same; the 70mm film just has a little extra on the outside for
> tracks.

> What this means is that you can't use existing aerial cameras or a

> has
> been modified to handle the narrower motion picture perfs.

> If you want to do hand drawn animation, though, it should not be too hard
> to get 65mm clear leader, draw on it, and have the lab print it to 70mm.
> FotoKem will still do 70mm printing and they might have some clear leader
> for you.   Technicolor in Glendale might still.

> It would be great fun to try hand-drawing on the huge Imax frame.
