How would you account for 70mm film projection? Or Imax?
Plus, I find it hard to believe that a 16mm projector (a pageant?) would be
more sophisticated than a 35mm projector, re the 2 and 3 blade shutters. I
know for a fact 16mm projectors are more rugged than 35 projectors, making
me think it would be a more simple design.
24fps is 24fps. 16mm moves at 36 feet per minute and 35mm moves at 90 feet
per minute. Both project at 24fps. Just edit in film, 16 or 35 and you
will discover that a projector does not project any given frame 2 or 3
times, but only once. There are editing `rulers' where you lay the film
print against to see how long the shot is and they have both 16 and 35
markings, and the difference has to do with the size of the frame and
nothing to do with the projection rate.
And I don't really get or buy into the difference. As a filmmaker I have
shot on 35mm, edited on 16mm, and released on video.
I don't get it. My favorite film, `Day for Night' I have seen projected (I
assume 35mm), I have studied in school (definitely 16mm) and I own on video.
And it's always the same movie.
How would you process a movie like `Timecode'? Shot on DV and projected on
35mm?
