[filmscanners] Re: Digi, film and scanning in movies



One thing to realize is that a Terrabyte of data is only $1000 at current
hardware prices.  So by 2006 that will have increased by a factor of 9 (2
triplings) which will mean that the net price of that 740 million Gbytes (ie
740,000 Terrabytes) will only be $74 Mil

Not exactly on-topic, but interesting -- and the next time your hard drive
space is getting tight, think of the  estimated 740 million GB per year
needed for movies & TV by 2006:

One quote:

"Warner's Cookson is one of the industry's voices of caution in the digital
production debate. In a demonstration for other studio executives at the
Warner lot, he compares a scene shot using film against three versions shot
with high-end digital cameras. The film version is markedly better than all
three digital versions.

"Its resolution is better, and the way it handles light and shadows
superior. Some of this may simply be the result of viewer conditioning. The
movie-going eye is used to accepting the effects of film. By the same
token, it could become accustomed to digital over time. Nevertheless,
Warner Bros. will not move to all-digital production until it is certain
that the archival copy will be as good as a film negative."
