Great video! However I do feel there is a slight detail you missed. Often times, the picture recorded onto 35mm regardless of perf will not utilize the entire 35mm width because they need to compensate for the area on the left (right of the sprockets) that is needed for the optical soundtrack when making theatrical prints, therefore your measurements might be off. Prior to optical sound, yes, 4-perf film utilized the entire width (Academy 35mm) but this changed when sound format became standard. Especially with 4-perf anamorphic, there will often be negative space on the 35mm negative on the left. A quick search online will show examples of 35mm negative film.

Most times that's the surface that leads to films having 2.4:1 instead of 2.66:1 ratio when using a 2x anamorphic on 4 perf for example. Also, since the advent of digital sound, the optical sound isn't usually done in the same print because that allows you to do mono only. The solution now is having the sound reel separate from the image.

The "Academy format" has optical sound and thick frame lines to keep the original aspect ratio of 1.33:1. The lens is now centered on this off-center Academy aperture. "Full aperture silent," AKA "super 35." The lens is centered geometrically between the perforations, and the frame lines are thin. The native aspect ratio is 1.33:1

Another reason you might choose 2-perf over shooting anamorphic is that, in the early days of CGI, it was difficult to blend CGI effects with live-action footage filmed with anamorphic lenses because of the artifacts they introduced into the image, such as barrel distortion, lens flares, bokeh, and so on. So if you were making a movie with a lot of CGI in it, and you wanted it to be widescreen, it made the most sense to either shoot 2-perf or "open gate". This became less of a problem with the advent of "rear anamorphic" lenses which did away with those artifacts, but those artifacts became associated with the "cinematic look" and which filmmakers desired, so as technology progressed, CGI software became able to work with anamorphic footage.

Good content. At the 3:57 mark, you start off the point about the more surface area that is used, the higher quality the image will become. That is not fully precise. Film does not work off of the bigger the aspect ratio, space or framing, the higher the quality of the image: which is why if a cinematographer uses 8mm, 16mm or 35mm, the quality is in the light or mood of the action or inaction filmed. Also, how that film is processed & developed plays a pivotal part as well. What if the film is pushed or pulled or goes through bleach bypass? does the initial quality improve or decrease? This is why the size, the tangible size is not the definitive high quality of a film/celluloid image or images. I am not a cinematographer but I am a film photographer who has used film & only film for over 25 straight years & we have small-format (135 film also known as 35mm film), medium-format & large-format film & each format have their own size uniqueness but that size uniqueness does tangibly make one size more high quality than the other sizes. Again the quality is in how it is lit, processed, developed & to a certain extent, the technique used to get that latent image into the shape a photographer or cinematographer want it to be, visually.

It's a video about formats. So it's understood that talking about how changing the format affects the image is under the context of other circumstances being the same. If he made a video about film speed and how changes in that affect the image, there wouldn't be a need to mention cross processing affecting the image.

@@gregorylagrangeI completely disagree. In my opinion he seemed to be aligning digital's standards for "high quality" to a tangible film format. If I go out here & photograph with Kodak Ektar (a professional brand of film), this does not make my roll of film "high quality." In this situation, the format is connected to the concept of actually working with film & to sit up here & say that a film is high quality because of a perforation selection is not precisely true. I don't use digital so maybe the understanding of "high quality" is a bit different to my understanding. However, the foundation of tangile film & all of its qualities are interwoven with the format, the speed of film, the film chemistry & how that film is processed & is developed, all of which does not start or stop at the selection of perforations. If you look at celluloid filmmaking throughout the 20th Century, you would clearly see that "high quality" was not as easy as some perforation selection.

@@shaunla.1098 He literally said that exposing a larger film area is kind of like a digital sensor with more resolution. Then went on to include a graphic saying that perfs affect the cost of shooting and the quality of the image. Doesn't matter if you use ektar, porta, fujichrome, reala, larger format is going to give you better image quality than a smaller format when you're talking about formats. No need to say "well you didn't mention using outdated film that's left in the car over the summer".

@@gregorylagrangehow are the both of you comparing a digital sensor to the area of tangible film, logically? This is the reason why there are no large-format digital photography cameras for still-photography & even digital medium-format photography does not fully compare to what tangible 120 or 220 film can do as in a physical emulsion scientifically dealing with light, time & the chemicals that it takes to process & develop. It seems like you are trying to override the physical properties that comes with film while using digital as a comparison point when digital came after film (the cart in front of the horse). The reason why the Daguerreotype has an extremely high resolution is not because it can be measured digitally but because the real space of what a latent image landed on, is dimensionally, physically precise. I guess every large-format photograph is high quality as well, if we are to use what we are discussing here. I do understand how one can compare digital to film, terminology wise, like (ISO readings) but to try & maneuver the basis of high quality in film photography or cinematography is again, not precise.

In the late 70's a device called the Duo-Sprocket invented and developed (patented worldwide) by cinematographer Donald McLendon in Houston Texas allowed any 4 perf camera to be converted to 3 perf. The Duo-Sprocket also had a version that would work in film projectors allowing the projectionist to be able to adapt the projector. Major film producers (Kodak and Fuji) fought the idea (because it cut cost in film purchases). It came along just before major film camera manufacturers began offering cameras that would shoot 2 and 3 perf and retrofit kits. Unfortunately the inventor died suddenly of a massive heart attack and the concept died along with him.

Anamorphic lenses squeeze the picture left and right to fit the 4 perf film surface. But when it is projected it is not de-squeezed left and right as the myth says, it is squezed again but now on top and bottom to fit the theater screen, which most of the time is 1.85:1. You end up with a picture that has the same width that 1.85:1 but its shorter in height. You do have a wider field of view, but not a wider image. The actual width of 2.39:1 and 1.85:1 in film or digital is the same. Just measure them.

Can someone explain me how cropping into a widescreen aspect ratio on 4 perf would be different than shooting just in 2 perf? The negative is still the same width so why wouldn't the amount of grain and character be the same if you crop the top and bottom half? I understand how 4 perf anamorphic would have larger negative quality as well as just standard 4 perf but when explaining 4 perf he seems to be saying you would get a different character of negative shooting 4 perf with a letterbox verses just shooting 2 perf.
@gregorylagrange
Жыл бұрын
When he talked about the larger exposure area of 4 perf giving a better image, he was also talking about it in context of projecting it in the aspect ratio of 4 perf. The larger exposure area doesn't need to be expanded as much to the viewable image size as does a smaller exposure area. Cropping 4 perf into a 2 perf aspect ratio would be similar to image quality as shooting 2 perf because the exposure areas are the same.

3-perf is a great middle ground between the two, especially in the modern age where you’re no longer needing to reframe for a 4:3 television presentation like you used to in the 90s and 2000s (when super 35 was everywhere) Spielberg used the format just recently on the Fabelmans and it looks great. TV Shows like Breaking Bad and Succession use it too, and HBO used to mandate it’s usage in the early 2000s so shows like the Sopranos could already be shot in 16:9 and retroactively un-cropped for HD.
