  • Designing a Cinema Auditorium
    ROLV GJESTLAND HOW TO DESIGN A CINEMA AUDITORIUM Practical guidelines for architects, cinema owners and others involved in planning and building cinemas HOW TO USE THIS BOOK This book can be read from beginning to end, to learn more about the elements that need to be taken into consideration when designing a cinema auditorium. But it may also be used as a reference in the design process, as the different parts of the auditorium are planned. Just be aware that making a change in one element might affect others. Designing a cinema auditorium is quite easy if you follow the rules. Although, if everyone follows all the rules, all auditoriums would look the same. Go beyond the rules, but always keep in mind that the main purpose of a cinema auditorium is to give the audience the best film experience. In addition, there are many other rooms in a cinema complex where you can use your creativity to create great experiences for patrons and make them want to come back. FEEDBACK This is the first edition of the book, and I am sure someone will miss something, someone will disagree with something and something will be incomplete or difficult to understand. Please do not hesitate to share your opinions, so the next edition can be better and the next one after that… Please use the contact info below. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Rolv Gjestland has a master's degree in metallurgy from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. He is now advisor in cinema concepts, design, logistics and technology for Film&Kino, the nonprofit trade organisation for Norwegian cinemas.

  • Anamorphic Aspect Ratio Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) Alpha
    POST-PRODUCTION GLOSSARY Anamorphic The process of optically squeezing images into a smaller area and then optically un- squeezing it to create a wider field of view than capable by the original recording medium by using non-square pixels. Commonly used to achieve wider than 16:9 imagery. Aspect ratio The ratio of image width to height. 4:3 refers to standard definition television, whereas 16:9 commonly refers to widescreen. It can also be expressed in decimal form such as 2.35:1 or 1.78:1. Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) File interchange format designed to allow easy transport of multimedia data between software through open standards. Expands upon limitations in the Open Media Framework Interchange (OMF) by allowing larger files to be contained. Alpha channel A channel in an image or movie clip that controls the opacity regions of the image. Bit Rate Determines the amount of data being used per unit of time. Usually expressed as kbps (kilobits per second) or Mbits (megabits per second). This number determines the overall size of a file. Codec A piece of software designed to encode and/or decode video data into a form readable by a computer or display system. A codec is usually wrapped in a container file. Common video codecs can include Apple ProRes, Avid DNX, and H.264. Audio Codecs can include LPCM, AAC, or MP3. However, a codec might need to be installed on a computer to enable playback. The open source VLC project is a useful tool to playback files of different codec types. POST-PRODUCTION GLOSSARY Container The actual file format of a video file for playback.
