For ASC MITC, the past year saw an even greater interdependence in the work of our more than a dozen committees. Much of that interde- pendence has involved the themes of HDR and WCG - science, technologies, equipment, and workflows. (VR FIGURE 1.

  • Editorial Background: Kodak Scientists Discuss Why and How the New Intermediate Film Was Developed
    Editorial Background: Kodak Scientists Discuss Why and How the New Intermediate Film was Developed Kodak has introduced a color intermediate film optimized for digital intermediate (DI) postproduction applications. KODAK VISION3 Color Digital Intermediate Film 5254/2254 is designed for use with contemporary film recorders, with the objective of faithfully retaining nuances in colors, contrast and other characteristics of digitally manipulated images. After the film-out, the new intermediate film is used as a master for generating high-quality release prints for projection on cinema screens. In the following conversation, Kodak scientists David Niklewicz and Ana Castro discuss the emulsion science behind the new film: When you began to design and develop a new color intermediate film specifically for digital intermediate postproduction applications, how did you determine the characteristics of the new film? NIKLEWICZ: From the earliest days of the motion picture industry, Kodak scientists have listened to filmmakers who share their thoughts and experiences about real-world production situations. Filmmakers who are choosing to follow a DI postproduction path suggested there was a need for a color intermediate film optimized for use with contemporary film recorders. KODAK VISION 2242 Color Intermediate Film remains the industry standard for high-quality traditional release printing processes. How does the new color intermediate film fit into the DI workflow? NIKLEWICZ: The vast majority of motion pictures produced for the cinema originate on color negative film. The negative is often scanned and converted to digital files for color grading and other DI image manipulation. The timed DI is recorded onto a color intermediate stock that is used as a digital original negative or as a duplication element for release printing.
