Sources of footage other than DVD's

Post by CaTaClYsM » Fri Jan 17, 2003 12:01 am

Are there any places to get source footage better than DVD's? or is DVD right now the BEST that there is?

FILM :O


FILM transfer...


The tape goes into a machine and the machine spits out DVD stuff :p

That's the layman's terminology.

So unless you want to steal a reel from a studio, you're out of luck.

Well I guess you could license them from the studio more millions of dollars.


A baseball bat against a couple executives heads has also done the trick before.

Well, they probably don't process directly from the film->MPEG-2 for the DVD. There's probably a higher-quality transfer from before the transferred film was compressed to DVD MPEG2.

However, this would only exist at either the company putting out the DVD and/or the authoring house, and not available for public use. Not to mention it would likely be on something like DigiBeta, and you -don't- want to be spending the money to get the hardware to do a full quality interface with a DigiBeta. Not to mention just renting the damn things (just the DigiBeta deck) is upwards of $500/day, and to buy one would cost more than most cars.

So- yes, DVD is the best you can do without serious professional hardware and actually working for the company doing the transfer.

WTH dude, DVD's aren't a high enough quality for you? You must have some nasty looking bootlegs or something.
