  • The Search for Spectators: Vistavision and Technicolor in the Searchers Ruurd Dykstra the University of Western Ontario, [email protected]
    Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies Volume 1 | Issue 1 Article 1 2010 The Search for Spectators: VistaVision and Technicolor in The Searchers Ruurd Dykstra The University of Western Ontario, [email protected] Abstract With the growing popularity of television in the 1950s, theaters experienced a significant drop in audience attendance. Film studios explored new ways to attract audiences back to the theater by making film a more totalizing experience through new technologies such as wide screen and Technicolor. My paper gives a brief analysis of how these new technologies were received by film critics for the theatrical release of The Searchers ( John Ford, 1956) and how Warner Brothers incorporated these new technologies into promotional material of the film. Keywords Technicolor, The Searchers Recommended Citation Dykstra, Ruurd (2010) "The Search for Spectators: VistaVision and Technicolor in The Searchers," Kino: The Western Undergraduate Journal of Film Studies: Vol. 1 : Iss. 1 , Article 1. Dykstra: The Search for Spectators The Search for Spectators: VistaVision and Technicolor in The Searchers by Ruurd Dykstra In order to compete with the rising popularity of television, major Hollywood studios lured spectators into the theatres with technical innovations that television did not have - wider screens and brighter colors. Studios spent a small fortune developing new photographic techniques in order to compete with one another; this boom in photographic research resulted in a variety of different film formats being marketed by each studio, each claiming to be superior to the other. Filmmakers and critics alike valued these new formats because they allowed for a bright, clean, crisp image to be projected on a much larger screen - it enhanced the theatre going experience and brought about a re- appreciation for film’s visual aesthetics.

  • Cinerama to Digital Cinema: from the Zenith to the Decline Written by Enric Mas ( ) January 11, 2016
    Enric Mas nitsenblanc.cat Cinerama to digital cinema: from the zenith to the decline Written by Enric Mas ( http://nitsenblanc.cat ) January 11, 2016 I try to imagine what the audience felt when they first saw a movie in Cinerama... but I cannot. I wonder, did they feel the same as I did when I saw a projection in 70 mm IMAX for the first time? Some clues tell me the answer is no. Howard Rust, of the International Cinerama Society, gave me an initial clue: “I was talking to a chap the other day who’d just been to see IMAX. ‘Sensational’, he said. ‘But, you know… it still doesn’t give you the same pins and needles up and down the back of your spin that Cinerama does’ ”. 1 What is its secret? Why is every film seen in Cinerama a unique event that is remembered for decades? We have another clue in a man who had worked with D.W. Griffith in That Royle Girl (1925), who produced and directed technically innovative short films, where black performers appeared, a rarity at the time, including the first appearance of Billie Holiday (Symphony in Black: A Rhapsody of Negro Life , 1935). He created a new imaging system (Vitarama) for the World’s Fair in New York (1939), joining 11 projectors of 16 mm, which reached a vertical image of 75 degrees high and 130 degrees wide, 2,3 developments which led to the most advanced artillery simulator in the world, which was used to train future aircraft gunners in World War II.

  • FILM FORMATS ------8 Mm Film Is a Motion Picture Film Format in Which the Filmstrip Is Eight Millimeters Wide
    FILM FORMATS ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8 mm film is a motion picture film format in which the filmstrip is eight millimeters wide. It exists in two main versions: regular or standard 8 mm and Super 8. There are also two other varieties of Super 8 which require different cameras but which produce a final film with the same dimensions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Standard 8 The standard 8 mm film format was developed by the Eastman Kodak company during the Great Depression and released on the market in 1932 to create a home movie format less expensive than 16 mm. The film spools actually contain a 16 mm film with twice as many perforations along each edge than normal 16 mm film, which is only exposed along half of its width. When the film reaches its end in the takeup spool, the camera is opened and the spools in the camera are flipped and swapped (the design of the spool hole ensures that this happens properly) and the same film is exposed along the side of the film left unexposed on the first loading. During processing, the film is split down the middle, resulting in two lengths of 8 mm film, each with a single row of perforations along one edge, so fitting four times as many frames in the same amount of 16 mm film. Because the spool was reversed after filming on one side to allow filming on the other side the format was sometime called Double 8. The framesize of 8 mm is 4,8 x 3,5 mm and 1 m film contains 264 pictures.

  • Actor John Rhys-Davies to Star in 'Ellston Bay'
    ‘Lord of the Rings’ actor John Rhys-Davies to star in ‘Ellston Bay’ ‘Ellston Bay’, a short film made with the support of Kodak casts ‘Lord of the Rings’ and ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ star John Rhys-Davies The production team behind the ‘Ellston Bay’ project, Fact Not Fiction Films, are delighted to announce the casting of John Rhys- Davies. 'Ellston Bay' is a highly ambitious piece of short-form filmmaking being produced by Fact Not Fiction Films with the support of Kodak Motion Picture Film. The film is aimed at being a British short film contender of the highest level. ‘Ellston Bay’ Director, Nicholas Eriksson stated: “It is a great privilege to have this opportunity to work with John, and I am greatly looking forward to collaborating together in the coming months.” John Rhys-Davies is best known to film audiences for his outstanding roles in blockbuster hits such as Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), as well as the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy where he played the role of Gimli the dwarf. ‘Ellston Bay’ will be shot in VistaVision, a very high-resolution motion picture film format. Originally designed by engineers at Paramount Pictures in 1954, the format enjoyed limited use throughout the 1950's and 1960's before falling out of favour with studios due to the increased costs of running the film. Whilst a great deal of seminal work was produced in the format by the likes of Alfred Hitchcock and John Ford, the format did not succeed as a mainstream option for filmmakers, and as such its development and use has been reserved for high-resolution visual effects work and backup options for large-format filmmakers working in IMAX.

  • UNIVISION Brochure
    Univision - 2:1 by Vittorio Storaro ASC , AIC Visualization by Fabrizio Storaro Ever since Plato's "Myth of the Cave" we are used to seeing Images in a specific space. In "Plato's Myth", prisoners are kept in a cave facing an interior wall, while behind them, at the entrance to the cave, there is a lighted fire with some people with statues and flags passing in front of the fire. At the same time, their shadows are projected onto the interior wall of the cave by fire's light. The prisoners are looking at the moving shadows in that specific area of the wall. They are watching images as a simulation, a "simulacreî of reality, not reality itself. The myth of Plato is a metaphor for the Cinema. Since that myth, audiences have gotten used to seeing images in a specific space. The journey of visual Arts in History, which human beings have made for so long, encompasses all different styles of Drawing - Painting - Photography, Cinematography, Television, etc... These styles were always determinated by a specific area that allowed any visual artist to express himself on a "canvas on a specific size". This canvas determines all visual arts to be a specific form of expression, not a copy of reality. Since the Lumiere brothers 100 years ago, a space has been framed in a very specific way, allowing any filmakers since to think and to realize his art form through Composition, a word almost forgotten in today's film industry. Recently, any movie - no matter how big or small, successfull or not - will, after a very short life on the big screen, have a much longer life on an electronic screen.
