Received the EC Blu-Ray the other day. The footage seems to be cleaner than the DC footage, and definitely has much more in the way of shadow detail. Unfortunately, it also has a rather large teal tint through the whole thing, as well as several instances of clipped highlights. As such, I’m overlaying the EC footage on my edit with the intention to remove the teal tint, though I will retain the DC footage for a shot if:
-The shot is too short in the EC
-The EC has crushed blacks and/or clipped highlights.

One nice thing about the EC is that the music is mixed very low in the center channel, which will make harvesting dialog and sfx for the scenes where Goldsmith’s score is to be added much easier.

Will hopefully be able to get some work done on this after finals!
