  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Trumbull on "Hypercinema"

i like trumbull alot... i think 'hypercinema' is not a happy word, but i'm really glad he's thinking about providing technological paths to advance the storytelling experience. i'll be happy when he's a little less vague about it. he probably gets a little bogged down with tech, but that simply needs to be balanced out by artistic creators.
 
Hi Michael,

Thanks for sharing this. I've always been a big fan of his FX work. I remember seeing one of his companies demonstrations here in the DC area back in the 1980s. I recall it being 70mm at 72fps or something like that. The subject of the film was less impressive than the tech. I seem to recall dune buggies chasing a giant beach ball around. I can say that it was certainly the best looking footage of that particular subject that I've ever seen.

Doug is a tech genius & one hell of a great person! I helped shoot his short film mentioned in the article. Lets just say the daileys were pretty amazing to look at ;)
 
Mostly he is talking about changing the frame rate dynamically on any frame, pixel, object or character throughout a movie. This makes a lot of sense considering 24p works perfectly for most scenes and higher frame rates are really necessary for other scenes or objects.
