From The PRESIDENT Joan Hutton csc

I

t is somewhat fitting that the unsavoury side of unpaid internships found its catharsis in our industry over the summer. Two unpaid interns who worked on the 2010 U.S. film Black Swan found it a less than stellar experience and sued the producers for wages. The two said they performed the same work as paid employees, provided value to the company and performed menial tasks that did not relate to their specialized training. A federal New York judge agreed with them, citing that producers violated state labour laws.

The internship summer of discontent is not limited to Americans or to our industry.

In Europe, students by the thousands demonstrated against the unfair nature of internships. In Canada, numerous lawsuits have recently sprung up against corporations over their internship practices.

Ideally, interns do meaningful work alongside mentors, gaining valuable experience that translates into stellar, productive careers. This does happen, but for every success story there seems to be far more negative reports of interns running for coffee or answering telephones. Even worse, many unpaid interns are supplanting paid industry workers by misguided companies who equate internship with free labour. Now, this is all very anecdotal since there are no statistics. There are, though, plenty of news reports and harrowing personal accounts of “internships from hell” posted on Internet discussion groups. There has even been ink posted on the CSC Facebook page over a major Canadian company advertising for novice corporate cinematographers/videographers to work for free as interns in their management development program. It’s listed on the Internet as an actual job that requires nights, weekends and a car, but no compensation!

When I started in the business so long ago, it was difficult even then to break in, and those first jobs didn’t pay well. But you were paid for your labour, and you learned while you earned. Today’s system of utilizing our youth for financial gain under the guise of internship experience is exploitive. When it displaces paid workers, it’s reprehensible.

It’s estimated that at any given time in Canada there are between 100,000 to 300,000 unpaid interns working under what’s a grey area of our labour codes. In an effort to bring clarity, a private member’s bill is on the docket for parliament’s fall session. If adopted, it would force the feds to hammer out an equitable solution with the provinces for unpaid internships across Canada. British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec already have rules on the books stipulating that internships must be a form of training. I’m of the opinion that people, at great financial cost, go to colleges and universities for their training. Companies, on the other hand, are for employment, where one gets paid for their labour, even while gaining experience and learning on the job.

Black Swan grossed over $300 million. The interns who worked on it were paid $0, until they decided to bite back.

n the indie film Rufus, by Calgary director Dave Schultz, an isolated small town is stirred by the arrival of a mysterious boy who happens to have a taste for blood. But Rufus is not exactly a vampire movie. On the festival circuit, Schultz says, the film has been described as “everything from a horror drama to a coming-of-age film,” and its non-specific genre kept director of photography Craig Wrobleski csc on his toes during shooting.

“It has attributes of a police procedural and murder mystery, as well as attributes of a comedy, family drama and a love story,” Wrobleski says. “That makes it challenging to shoot because you don’t want it to feel like five different movies in one. So to determine the tone, I asked Dave, ‘What’s the central theme in the movie?’ And he said, ‘Secrets.

Everybody has secrets. And so does Rufus.’

So I realized what was going to make this film unified visually is if it has this constant sense of menace, a weight on top of it. Photographically, that’s where I went with it.”

of David Fincher because “they have a unified mood and sense of place,” beginning with The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, a film set in the winter like Rufus is, and he chose the RED EPIC to capture the stark, snowy prairies of Saskatchewan where Rufus was shot. “I think the camera really works well for the look we were going for, which is a very clean look,” the cinematographer explains. “I wanted the film to be kind of a study in mid-tones, and the camera really shines in that range. I gave the film a mood by virtue of that.”

Wrobleski says he is a big believer that “what goes in front of the camera is as important as the lighting, because what’s in front of the camera drives the lighting.” With that in mind, he approached the lighting holistically, working closely with production designer Hugh Shankland and costume designer Jennifer Haffenden. “All the lighting in the world can’t improve upon production design and wardrobe that isn’t tonally cor-

He has an exceptionally good ability to interpret story and understand what the movie’s about.

Wrobleski’s understanding of the story is one of the reasons Schultz put his trust in the DOP. “There’s a sense he has that the picture becomes his as well,” the director says. “It’s not just about composing a shot or getting something to look a certain way. He has an exceptionally good ability to interpret story and understand what the movie’s about.”

rect to begin with,” Wrobleski says. “One of the early decisions we talked about was the fact that since this was a winter movie in Saskatchewan we would have snow, so white was going to be part of our palette whether we liked it or not.

“That goes against the notion of the dark vampire movie,” Wrobleski continues. “But when Dave mentioned secrets, one of the

things that came up is if you live in a small town you can’t hide.

Everybody in a small town knows everybody’s business. You can’t get away with anything.”

Wrobleski and Shankland extended the white palette into much of the film’s interiors. “I thought the idea of having white in the rooms made it harder to create those dark shadows which supported the notion of nowhere to hide,” Wrobleski says. “It was a fun concept to play with. It keeps the audience on their toes a little bit and keeps them more engaged instead of spoon-feeding them what they would expect.”

Wrobleski also chose the RED because of its sensitivity, given that he would be shooting a lot of night exteriors, including large swaths of Saskatchewan prairie. For that, gaffer Andrew Gordon came up with a budget-saving idea. “Instead of using one big light on a condor lift, which is the conventional thing to do, he had the idea of building an array of 1K par cans. They are some of the cheapest lights available, but they have a lot of output because of the type of bulb,” Wrobleski explains. “His idea was building a grid of these. We had 32 of them, so essentially that made it a 32,000-Watt light, and we built it on a condor lift, and it gave us the ability to light a huge area by using individual lights to light specific portions of the landscape. We could

8 • Canadian Cinematographer - September 2013

essentially light about 130 degrees off of the lift by panning these lights around and having different types of bulbs in them, which created more texture rather than one huge wash of light. We could paint a little more with it.” The effective rig cost no more than one big light, Wrobleski estimates, and it allowed for greater flexibility because he could split gels, enabling half of the light to be one colour and the other half another.

Playing on the vampire theme, Wrobleski infused the night scenes with more colour – and thereby more life – than day scenes, which he shot with the camera set to around 4,000 degrees Kelvin, giving day scenes a steely blue cast, “which sort of pulls some of the life out of the days,” he says.

Meanwhile, the sodium vapour street lights of the town endowed the nights with a warmer look, counter to traditional night scenes seen on film. “Movie night is blue and cold,” Wrobleski observes.

“We went the opposite with it because it supported that notion of the night having more life than day.”

Trying to capture the inevitable blood at night was complicated, though. Schultz stipulated that the blood in Rufus be “real and not cartoony or hyper-coloured,” Wrobleski recalls. “Well, real blood is quite dark, which made shooting blood at night really challenging because the blood just looks black. Ultimately, we decided to use vein blood which, on certain pieces of wardrobe, actually looked quite light. And it had a lot of density and just felt real.”

For the most part, the blood is downplayed, although there are some exceptions in the film. “There’s one scene where Rufus takes a victim, and we made the blood quite graphic for that because it was seeing another side to his character,” Wrobleski says. “And there’s another scene where after he takes his victim, he’s soaked in blood, and we wanted it to be quite graphic there as well, and to augment it I warmed up the lighting to bring out some of the red in the blood. Because the blood is so understated throughout the movie, when we do draw attention to it, it has more impact.”

Blood is not the only striking image in Rufus. The film was shot over 22 days in the dead of winter in Dundurn, Saskatchewan.

“It’s strange because you’re driving through the prairies, and it’s just bald, and then you get to this oasis of trees, and that’s Dundurn,” Wrobleski says. “In the winter when the trees lose their leaves they just become like these black skeletons.”

Wrobleski speaks nostalgically about shooting in the town because Rufus was one of the last dramatic features to be shot in Saskatchewan before the elimination of the film tax credit. “The film, from my standpoint, couldn’t have been shot anywhere else.

Saskatchewan played a huge role in terms of the landscape, the quality of the people there and their energy and just the spirit of filmmaking where they just want to get it done right,” he says.

After the cut, “it felt like those people were just abandoned; I really felt for them.”

Schultz laments the loss of the tax credit more graphically.

“It took 20-something years to build the Saskatchewan film industry, and it took one stroke of a pen to destroy it,” he says.

On the Res with

Alfonso Maiorana

G

By Fanen Chiahemen

rowing up on the Kahnawake reserve on the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River across from Montreal, Tracey Deer felt that the mass media perception of her community did not match her experience. For Deer, life on the res could be “vibrant, dynamic and hilarious,” but outsiders, she felt, only saw what she describes as “gloom and doom.”

The young filmmaker long harboured a desire to tell a more authentic version of her story and that of her peers, and she is doing so now with a new series produced by Rezolution Pictures.

Mohawk Girls, airing next year on APTN and OMNI, is a slick, sexy comedy drama that goes into the heart of Kahnawake to follow a group of young aboriginal women trying to find their place in the world.

“One of our catchphrases is that it’s Sex and the City but on the res,” Deer, who is creator and director of the series, tells Canadian Cinematographer. “I really wanted it to look mainstream, like any other show on the big networks. I want it to be familiar to viewers and not a completely different, alienating experience.”

So she tapped Montreal cinematographer Alfonso Maiorana – whom she describes as “a meticulous perfectionist” – to bring the show to life in a very classic way, playing up the comedy aspects of the show with warm tones and bright colours.

“She spoke about how important it was to express the colourful individuality and free-spirited mindset that is in this community,” Maiorana says. “For me that was exciting as a cinematographer to have this challenge of creating a vision that is free-spirited.”

The series was shot mostly on the reserve, and during scouting Maiorana was struck by the local colour he saw there in the most literal sense. “Kahnawake is a colourful place to be,” he recalls.

“Everywhere we went you felt there’s life here and there’s colour.

We didn’t want to desaturate all that. I wanted to craft the narrative by using colours, shadows and contrast.”

He also wanted to capture the true essence of the physical spaces on the reserve. “When you enter each home there’s something warm and soft and intimate, and you feel that. So we didn’t want to lose that environment. We didn’t want anything fabricated in terms of lighting or in terms of camera work and composition. In many ways, I felt a genuine responsibility to create an aesthetic vision worthy of the subtleties in Kahnawake that Tracey could see page 12 relate to and imagine.”

evolved,” he says. “That’s the advantage and the flexibility we focused on in terms of my lighting package.”

Maiorana also found that same inspiration in the reserve’s school. He recalls one classroom’s wall had warm orange earth tones.

“You feel a real intimacy in the architecture. The natural light coming through the large windows on each floor enhanced our shot making,” he says. Again, he used natural light as a fill for ambient light and added HMI 6Ks through the window for his side key light. Sometimes he employed a Kino Flow Vistabeam 600 and a Celeb 200 which allows for colour control and light balance to create a warm tungsten fill. “Every day I would try to make every scene look a little different as the story

“Or sometimes Tracey would say, ‘In this night scene I have them sitting in the living room with a computer, and the windows are in the back, but it’s day, so how do we approach this?’” Maiorana continues. “So I would speak to my grip and lighting crew about using gold-tinted gels and Kino Flos on the sheers to build a night lighting outside in the distance. You create an atmosphere that looks real but doesn’t distract you from the real subject, which is the character.”

Knowing he and his gaffer Eames Gagnon could not be heavy-handed with their tools when creating the warm, colourful interiors, Maiorana would study the ambient lighting in each home and simply enhance it using a one directional lighting scheme. “Normally, for my daylight interiors, I employed a variation of HMIs, 6Ks, 4Ks, and 1.2Ks through a light diffusion to create my backlight or key light depending on the number of existing windows and the mise en scène,” he says. “From there, I would gently mould everything else. I added some soft sources to provide edge light or fill, usually using Celeb 200 DMX LED panels or a bounce board with an unbleached muslin. Eames would hide small Litepanels LEDs behind furniture to help me sculpt some details in the shadows. I didn’t want to overpower anything; I wanted to keep it directional but at the same time soft and real.”

Maiorana worked closely with the art department and art director Donna Noonan to help him stay faithful to the colours and ambience of Kahnawake. “With numerous locations, our biggest challenge remained our interior day-for-night shoots,” he says. “Donna and I always discussed floor plans and lighting to accommodate our shooting. Once I established our key light, we found ways to build depth with sheers and practicals. The art department would say, ‘What if we put a little curtain here? Would that work?’ I would say, ‘What colour are you going to use? Does it have some shape or is it flat?’ And then we would add a few practicals in the foreground or background for subtle highlights.

All the action on the 24-day shoot was captured with just one camera, the AL-

EXA (rented from MTL Video), which Maiorana favoured for its latitude and dynamic range. “The image doesn’t feel digital but cinematic,” he says. “It allows the shadows and contrasts to exist, and you can build a more vivid palette.”

For lenses, he selected the miniS4 Cooke lenses, ranging from 18 mm to 135 mm.

“We were at T4 a lot for day interiors and more like T5.6-8 for day exteriors. More importantly, working between T2.8 and T4, especially on night scenes, offers me the richness and latitude to get the most out of lighting. The lenses are lightweight, and the camera’s 800 ASA allows you to be flexible but also real in terms of a cinematic look.”

With the typical constraints of time and space, Maiorana often employed a silent cat camera slider as a dolly, which allowed him to be closer to the action but less intrusive for the actors. “As a DOP, with your lighting and tools you have to be flexible and find ways to not stagnate your creativity,” he says. “Sometimes I’d have a 20-foot dolly set up, and at the same time my slider would be ready. And if I wanted to keep continuity of movement I’d just hop onto my slider.”

Maiorana explains how having a single camera and being frequently pressed for time, typically considered limiting, actually stimulated the shooting for him. “If we started wide, we’d have a dolly that would end in a medium shot. We never started by doing a wide and then stopping to do a medium, then a close-up. I always lit the scene thinking that our first shot would start a little wider but end closer so that I could have a colour palette or lighting scheme that we could expose as we went along. I didn’t want to be trapped, didn’t want the actors to be trapped, and I didn’t want my lighting to be trapped. And then sometimes I would just pop a lens and go from a 32 mm to a 75 mm and do that same movement, and that was a way that gave me time but did not compromise the lighting or the performance. Of course, I would not be able to achieve this approach without the talent of my long-time friend and focus puller Patrick Beaulac who kept a close eye on the drama.”

Deer’s affinity for whimsical narrative

In another creative challenge that Maiorana embraced, Deer wanted mirrors placed throughout most of the interiors to reflect the girls’ grappling with their image of themselves and their identity. Maiorana would direct strategically placed 575 Lekos into the mirrors, which would then reflect light onto the characters regarding themselves. But it admittedly was far easier to do in the low-light context of a night scene. “You don’t need to light the whole room, and you can really focus on the person who’s looking at the mirror and whoever is in reflection,” Maiorana explains.

“In daylight you have a lot of light coming through, so it’s a little more of a challenge.”

Still, for Maiorana trying to solve these creative puzzles was less like work and more “like eating your favourite chocolate,” he says laughing. “You don’t even find that often in a one-hour show, and so to have this aesthetic look in a 24-min-

ute show without taking anything away from the story was a challenge but an exciting one.”

devices – like imagination sequences that depict the characters’ hidden desires and motivations – also allowed Maiorana to play. “We used an 8 mm fisheye lens to shoot a one-angle shot of some of the girls’ imagination sequences that deal with either fears or dreams,” Maiorana says. “Or we used baby lenses for some of the dream sequences that deal with secret sexual fantasies. With a baby lens you can go in and out of focus, distort the image, stretch the image out vertically or horizontally.

They’re usually used more in vampire or horror shows. But they were good for the fantasies because the character who has that dream, it’s something she fears as a character and is unsure about. So it was a great way to show that struggle.”

“As a DOP, with your lighting and tools you have to be flexible and find ways to not stagnate your creativity.”

The show is like Sex and the City but on the res, Mohawk Girls creator Tracey Deer says.

T h e C o o ke L e n s T est Photos: Ray Dumas csc

Matching pairs of 18 mm and 50 mm Cooke miniS4s with and without coated elements.

E

arlier this year, cinematographers Ray Dumas csc and Jeremy Benning csc decided to test their matched sets of the Cooke miniS4/i lenses, comparing the regular coated lenses versus the new uncoated front/rear elements that Cooke now makes for the miniS4s. Here is what Dumas and Benning – referred to collectively as RDJB – shared with Canadian Cinematographer about the test.

Canadian Cinematographer: What is the purpose and history behind the coating of lenses?

RDJB: Cooke first patented the coating of optical lenses in 1905, but the practice of coating lenses did not come into wide use until about 1947 due to secret military technology that became mainstream after the Second World War. The primary reason for coating lenses was to reduce light loss caused by reflection – about 5 per cent of the light per lens surface is lost through a lens element that is uncoated, so considering there are 10 or so pieces of glass in a typical prime lens, there can easily be an entire stop lost to reflected light. With modern lens coatings, this light loss factor drops to about .001 per cent per glass surface.

14 • Canadian Cinematographer - September 2013

CC: Why the interest in uncoated elements?

RDJB: Aside from improved light transmission, modern coatings do a tremendous job reducing flares caused by specular lighting such as the sun or open-faced light sources. Oftentimes, however, such flares are desirable when wanting a vintage or dramatic look for a particular project. To achieve this, DOPs are forced to search out older lenses with inferior coatings and glass to achieve “artful” flaring and low contrast. The problem there is that these older lenses do not provide the same sharpness and resolution as modern ones. Some projects are even turning to post to create digital flares after the fact, which effectively takes the DOP out of the loop.

CC: What is the origin of these new uncoated lens elements for the miniS4s and what prompted you to undertake the test?

RDJB: We have been Cooke fans for many years, and in 2009 we both decided to invest in our own sets of miniS4/i lenses.

We worked with Les Zellan at ZGC to make us a 3D matched

pair. During this testing and feedback process, we developed a relationship with Les and the U.K.-based factory. When Les told us recently that they were developing uncoated front and rear elements for the minis, we asked if we could do a test, with the intention to own this set of uncoated elements. We then planned a test that would show the characteristics of uncoated versus coated and also to experiment with them.

CC: Can you describe the parameters of the test and the results?

RDJB: Lens tech Michael Nadas at SIM Digital, who has Cooke factory training, swapped out the front and rear elements of one of our 50 mm and 18 mm lenses. Due to the unique way the lenses are designed, they do not require re-calibration after swapping. As we have a matched pair, we then were able to easily swap between uncoated and coated versions of the same focal length. We began our test at SIM, using an ALEXA, shooting simple flare comparison tests using a small pepper and the “flashlight” on an iPhone. We then took a new Sony F55 home to shoot some table top and night exterior tests.

CC: What are the limitations and potential applications of using the uncoated elements?

RDJB: It was immediately clear to us that flaring is extremely prominent. Flares are strongly defined circles. Blacks are softer with the uncoated elements, but no visible change in sharpness, saturation or tint. Basically the same “Cooke look” but more flare and softer contrast. So in a daylight environment, the image is less contrasty in a sort of softer, period, vintage way. If you are going for that kind of look and not pronounced flares, then you would have to be careful to keep the lens protected from hard or broad light hits. Also, when the lens is at any T-stop other than wide open, the iris blades are prominently seen in the shape of the flares, making them octagonal instead of perfect circles. This could be cool or it could be distracting.

The beauty of the minis4s is that Cooke modified them for us to have a perfectly round aperture at T2.8. This allows for the prettiest bokeh while maintaining a workable depth of field.

These hard flares would be great for creating a vibe that is gritty, sci-fi, thriller or hi-tech.

You can see this in the test which is posted on the Cooke Optics Vimeo page (vimeo.com/61903188). In a darker setting, the contrast lift is less obvious, and flares really jump out.

Something we didn’t test was just swapping out the front or rear element instead of both. We imagine that you could tune the effect more subtly by trying this.

For examples of real world applications, you can check out a couple of projects we both recently shot using the uncoated glass: St. John Providence Hospital Spots shot by Jeremy Benning csc: vimeo.com/71165495 Monster Truck’s “Sweet Mountain River” shot by Ray Dumas csc: vimeo.com/66880502

ProFusion 2013

By Guido Kondruss

“It’s beautiful,” I quipped to the fellow beside me.

“I can’t take my eyes off it,” he shot back. “Amazing, isn’t it?”

“Yep,” I answered.

The CSC also made footprints, with three of its members conducting seminars at ProFusion 2013. Hot on the heels of publishing his memoirs Adventures in Filmmaking, CSC Award winner Peter Rowe csc conducted a seminar on extreme adventure cinematography. To bring adventure home to his audience, Rowe remotely piloted his AR Drone above the tradeshow.

A prospective CSC member stops by the booth.

T

he two of us were mesmerized by the images jumping out at us from the 65” screen of a Sony XBR 4K Ultra HD TV. If plain old HD makes you swoon, this 4K baby – with four times the clarity of HD – will make you positively giddy. And this was only one of the hundreds of new cine imaging and photographic products that could be seen, touched and listened to at ProFusion 2013, held in June at the Toronto Congress Centre.

Capitalizing on the success of previous years, ProFusion, which is produced by Vistek, added another 50,000 square feet of showroom space to accommodate more than 100 vendors, many displaying cutting-edge gear never seen before in Canada. What better magnets to attract the crowds.

“ProFusion’s key demographic is the professional image maker, an individual who is earning a living in the photo and video marketplace,” Vistek Creative Director Christopher Huchensk said.

More than 4,000 people walked through the doors of ProFusion 2013, many of them stopping at the CSC booth, manned by CSC Co-education Chair Ernie Kestler, CSC Executive Director Susan Saranchuk, Executive Assistant Karen Longland and yours truly, when I could be dragged away from the fascinating gadgetry at everyone else’s booth.

“This is a very important and successful event for us,” Saranchuk said. “Not only do we get to mingle with our sponsors and potential sponsors of the CSC, but we can actively recruit for our membership, education programs and many other CSC initiatives.”

It was CSC associate member Sarah Moffat’s third year as a workshop leader and presenter at ProFusion. Her seminar, titled “Cinematography Choices for Indie Projects,” navigated the ins and outs of shooting indie and included a walkabout on the show floor to introduce participants to some of the tools talked about in her workshop. According to Moffat, there is an aspect of ProFusion that is often overlooked.

“It’s a great networking opportunity,” she said. “To meet people on the show floor, in the seminars. It’s a chance to get industry connected. “ For CSC associate member Bentley Miller, it was his first time on stage at ProFusion. His seminar, “LEDs in the REEL World,” showed that LEDs can light an entire production or work in concert with traditional lighting sources. Miller feels that ProFusion hits the right balance between seminars and the show floor merchandizing.

“Whether you are just kicking the tires or you are seeking serious information to help you make decisions on your next production, the information is there for the asking,” Miller said.

As the imaging industries continue to change and converge at lightning speed, it’s obvious that professionals need to be riding the technological curve to survive. A trade show like ProFusion could be the right vehicle for many to climb aboard. So what’s ahead next year? Hmm, too soon for an 8K TV?

“I call it a camera disguised as a helicopter. I flew it up above the audience and the floor. That got the attention of everybody,” Rowe said. “I was showing off its internal camera, the image it was creating and sending to an iPad.”

The CSC welcomes new sponsor Codes Pro Media, one of Canada’s largest media suppliers.

The War That Everyone Lost

H

istory says Sony’s Blu-ray won the format war, but five years later look around. See any stores renting Blurays? Better yet, see any video rental stores? So who really won? Consumers voted with their butts on their couches to stream movies from Netflix, Apple TV, their cable providers and (shh!) bootlegging copies online.

They’ve traded quality for convenience. Just maybe, however, the quality vacuum left by the orphaning of Blu-ray and the bottleneck of bandwidth might buy some time for theatre owners to invest in upgrades to get those butts back into their seats.

The race for bigger and better quality is on, and it’s moving at pace as home theatres upgrade to 4K screens. The weakest link, however, remains the disk. The proof is on the street: Blockbuster Video has gone, Rogers withdrew, and Redbox – the kiosk movie rental business – hasn’t established itself everywhere. Certainly there are many consumers who want to buy movies, but for most, movies are consumed à la minute and consigned to memory.

The numbers, generally, are trending down. According to research company NPD Group’s Video Watch VOD report on the U.S. trend in 2012, “rentals of physical disks, while dominant, are becoming less so; in fact, year-over-year disk rentals from all sources declined by 17 per cent, as digital movie rentals (streaming) increased by five per cent.”

There’s further wiggle room for theatre owners to capitalize on the quality gap in that those who stream run into the wall erected

by Internet Service Providers, which cap bandwidth and penalize large file downloaders to make 1080p downloads uneconomical.

The ISPs say it’s to prevent clogging the network with massive data packets, but in reality it’s to protect their own sales of online content and to block their own customers from opting for Netflix or Apple TV. Meanwhile, things are evolving on the capture side: data is getting bigger as 4K RAW emerges as a standard —next up 5K, 6K, and in Japan NHK is piloting 8K. Ironically, it’s a little frustrating because there are so few places to experience the splendor of this cutting-edge technology, and if it just gets squished to 720p for streaming, what’s the point?

Don’t sweat it, says Bert Dunk csc, asc, technology supervisor at the Screen Industries Research and Training Centre (SIRT) in Toronto, compression standards are also about to morph again.

The new MPEG standard will create files half the size of MPEG4, making delivery of higher resolutions online more feasible, he says, and there are other developments in the works.

20 • Canadian Cinematographer - September 2013

As CSC Treasurer Joseph Sunday notes, the future is gaming where consoles put out 4K already, and 4K TVs are already dropping in price, as he saw at NAB in April. With HDMI 1.4 and higher end Blu-ray players which will upscale to 4K, things are changing there too, Dunk points out. Of course, he’s a hardcore Blu-ray consumer, loading his Amazon cart with titles by the dozen and waiting until the price cycles down and buying.

Meanwhile, the quality of output and display resolution continue to advance. “They’re also working on a new HDMI standard because Hi-Vision is coming,” he says, though ironically in Japan, where Hi-Vision was invented and introduced 30 years ago, they’re pushing on to Ultra High Definition Television (UHDTV), which seeks to push the TV resolution to 8K and was approved last fall. At the top end, it’s 16 times more pixels than 1080p.

All of which brings us back to theatres, where technology is the trump card to get bums off couches and into seats: more resolution, better sound and a more immersive experience, though, as always, good stories, well told.

“One of the real questions seems to be scan rates and appreciation of high frame rates,” Dunk says. “I’ve got an F65 camera in the studio we’re going to be testing. For that to be fully appreciated properly (at 4K) it’s got to be running at 60 frames a second because the temporal resolution needs to increase on that.

Visual technologies company Christie is going to come up with a projector which will allow me to do that, and we’re talking 2D not even 3D. “Part of what this high frame rate is trying to do is bring people back into the theatre,” he says. “They’re also looking at surround sound systems with 22 speakers.”

Digital projector chips are also getting bigger, while laser projectors are moving from the test bench to testing.

Finally, back on the home front, Sunday says what caught his eye at NAB was Sony’s demonstration of a 4K-download device with robust copy-protection built-in. “Sony recognizes 4K will not be distributed by broadcast,” he says. “And the colour and shape of this device does lend us to nickname it the ‘4K hockey puck.’ I’d give it the media Stanley Cup this year.”
