John Clancy's Youtube channel has a new video on scanning 35mm film with a a system they built using an old 35mm projector and digital camera.
Scanners Inc. have been creating and supplying 4K video transfers from 35mm film to cinemas now for some time. In this video we meet Scanners Inc. founder Peter Aldanmaz as we attend a screening of their 4K DCP transfer of Roger Avary's 1993 classic 'Killing Zoe' at the Prince Charles Cinema just off Leicester Square in the West End of London. The Scanners Inc. ambition was to create digital video transfers that replicated the original look of a film print as closely as possible. This would facilitate authentic looking film screenings around the world for cinemas who have lost their 35mm film projection equipment. The Prince Charles Cinema still screens 35mm film on a daily basis (regular 70mm screenings are featured too), so this is the ideal location to test this new venture to an audience. Some of that audience give their opinions after the screening. We later speak with fellow Scanners Inc. team member Lincoln Barrett and Peter Aldanmaz to go through some of the issues they came across when creating this new, accurate version of 'Killing Zoe', what their plans are for the future and also take a look at the cine to video transfer scanning unit in action. Parts of this video were shot by Peter Aldanmaz. Lincoln Barrett re-processed the sound from the Zoom conference to eliminate unwanted echo and to equalize all the volumes.
