That reel seems to be in fantastic condition! please leave the optical dirt alone, I know that I'm in minority in this thinking but if you're going to clean up footage that is in this good condition you may as well get rid of the orange blob under the speeder.

well, there will be some creative decisions..

and like harmy said.. i agree.. i like the slightly

cleaned up version.. but there *MIGHT* be a

raw untouched version, and *POSSIBLY* a

grindhouse version from the red ones.. we'll see.

obviously post questions on the blog...

but if it is not a dirt spot, or something on the film..

like the black spots, it will be taken out..

otherwise, if it was on the print, it will be left in..

these are raw shots, so yeah, there will be

some mild grain reduction, but when you see it

motion. even the dirty stuff is fine when watching it.

it's all over the movie.. so if a scene looks too clean,

it might look out of place... we've talked a lot about

what to do with this in the past. and i'm sure we'll

talk about it more in the future.

later
