we have a mix of files.. some RAW, some not. we won't know until
the end when we decide what to do with them, and organize them.
as far as the sound. yes, it is captured separately.
and it would be very hard to synchronize anyways,
due to frame accuracy needed to combine them.
ultimately, you have to process the frames first,
convert to video, then do color corrections on scenes etc.
or do it to individual frames -> combine to scenes,
then assemble the video track, and synch to the audio.
we're not going to release the premiere, avid, or other
workfiles though. (you would have to have the exact same setup,
and pro software anyways, so that would be difficult).
also those are the property of the restorers, and we are
documenting the changes made, the fixes, and what processes
we used, so there will be some transparency on the final
product. and you won't have to guess what is being altered.
there's a lot of subtle digital manipulation going on,
stabilization, warping fixed, and many other impercetible
fixes that you will never even notice. but it's good to know
what they are. i don't think we're going to document all
the dust,dirt and scratches though. unless they are major
ones. of course the ones that are in the source film will
remain there.
later
