AMAZING TECH IN EACH FRAME

The capability we have for filmmaking today is fantastic; the ability to bless each frame with such clarity is something many strive for but few achieve, and with frank millers comics adapted into films (Sin City and 300) we can finally see how far we have come in our digital age. Each frame looks as if it were realistic even though both used a considerable amount of computer animation with a minimal amount of live action parts.
Seeing each part coming to life so surreal in plot yet so beautiful, each image crisp, something new, with little repetition, and noticing the immense attention to detail shows that with a little bit of effort there is virtually nothing you can’t create.

Now I love classic films, and seeing them enhanced in both audio and picture is something amazing, such films as The Man with No Name trilogy ( Fist Full Of Dollars, For a few dollars more , the good the bad and the ugly) starring Clint Eastwood have been fully re mastered something we should do to every classic. However taking into account the amount of percision required means most of them will not be touched up, some will be left in their gritty old look such as Cool Hand Luke an amazing story starring Paul Newman because of the length of the film and willingness to enrich said film.

Now with each filmmaker’s views being on the future, tech. such as hi def cameras and high quality video editing software become vital in the filmmaker’s toolbox. As they rightly should because of the creativity being in the process of itself, you owe it to yourself to give the best possible imagery for your original idea while maintaining your original aspirations for said project.
