NOTES:

* Full Suite of Color Correction methods applied for 8 bits per pixel video is defined as follows:

– Primary Color Correction
Scene by scene, color cast removal, RGB re-compensation
Scene by scene core edits, gain, gamma/density, pedestal adjustments, junk film removal
– 8 bit Quicktime YUV 4:2:2 color space video format
– Proper video retiming (pull down) for smooth playback
– Image resizing may be 4:3 1440×1080 1.33 or full 16:9 1920×1080 sq pixel or…
4:3 960×720 sq pixel or full 16:9 1280×720 sq pixel
– 30ps default frame rate, 24fps and 25fps optional
– Progressive or interlaced scan optional

No special video filters are applied in this phase of the 8mm or Super8 film to HD video telecine process to improve any visually impaired film segments. The 8mm and Super8 film to HD video files is in its raw state, aside from the color, gamma and luminance adjustments made. We do offer basic film grain reduction filters as an option to remove and improve the video respectively, one of the most fundamental of aging film anomalies.

A more comprehensive film restoration protocol for 8mm and Super8 mm film maybe too cost prohibitive to consider as these techniques are usually applied to industrial clients with 16mm or larger film gauges. Contact RHMG for more information.
