I think we should be happy that Williarob is a bit more easygoing than either Mike or -1 and that he isn’t pursuing an extraordinarily complex averaging method. Each shot in this project is supposed to be an accurate representation of the projected image of a theatrical print, not an attempt to get back to some vague idea of what the interpositive looked like. The video explaining the process plus the amount of the film completed are testament to the fact that unlike Legacy, this version may be ready in a fairly short space of time. Very exciting!
On a technical note, although the new longer sample looks terrific, I preferred the old encoding. I think it was mentioned above, but H264 is making this one a little gravelly in the busier shots, in my opinion.
Thanks so much for the hard work!
