The Aluminum Falcon:

The running time of the trailer is listed at 2:27, so it should be the 2.35:1 version of this trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRwG9xyQmIE&feature=relatedhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRwG9xyQmIE&feature=related

 

Laserschwert:

Yes definitely I want to share details like that, but not quite yet.  I want to at least get a working prototype video first to prove out my process.  Hopefully I will have something soon.  Regarding cleanup, I am using a squeezable dust blower on the film like this: http://www.canstockphoto.com/images-photos/dust.html#file_view.php?id=5580993 and a microfiber cloth when necessary to get the dust off.  I may also manually fix with photo software any minor spots worth fixing that I missed and am too lazy to go back and find that exact frame later.  For the most part, I am trying to get the best image up front though.  As of now, I do not plan to do any color correction or other filters because it already looks pretty good.  I may decide to play with the color later and see what I think.  At least so far, it looks like the footage is just a bit blurry, but the film grain is sharp, so I am not sure if that is because the action is in motion or because it is an upscale or other reasons.  Once I get a video working, I may know more.
