Author Topic: Cyan Dye Track Experiences with "Anything Else" John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-04-2003 06:24 PM                        I hope the thoughts of playing cyan dye analog tracks with white light readers are strictly academic. As Gordon and Ray note, it's not just a matter of increasing the gain and accepting a higher noise level. We had been told that cyan dye tracks would be used for all release prints of "Anything Else". Perhaps they felt that the percentage of theatres converted to red readers in some areas of Europe was not sufficient yet.  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 10-04-2003 08:36 PM                     Huh, Antonio; that's kind of ironic, given that all the US prints were printed at Technicolor's Rome lab. --jhawk p.s.: Yes, John, I think all the discussion is academic...  |  IP: Logged Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?"

I don`t know about other European countries, but in Germany the vast majority of cinemas has had red LED readers for the past several years.  |  IP: Logged Antonio Marcheselli Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1260 From: Florence, Italy Registered: Mar 2000 posted 10-05-2003 05:35 PM                        In my Town I know just 1 of 40 theater that has white light SR reader. All US copies come from Rome? I do not envy you! Bye! A  |  IP: Logged
