I don't know if this has been answered before: Are you making a 4k version, that will be scaled down to 1080p when you're done, or do you scale the stuff down before you start working?

Will you also release the 4k version for download (if you're making one).

I'm asking because I would try to recreate the Movietrailer for Star Wars in 1080p, but the Trailer was in 1.78:1, which means I would have to upscale the movie first...

we're scaling stuff down before working on it:

it's a lot harder to work in 4K..

the raw files alone would take up to 15-20 Terabytes

to hold the scan... i can't imagine how much bigger

the video would be.. instead of a 25 Gig disc, you

would have to use 50 Gig blurays, etc.. and unless

you had a really fast computer, you woudn't be able

to watch video at that resolution (i can't).

Do you (can you?!) plan to release a non-cleaned-up scaled-down version? It'd be very useful for those of us who'd like to play with the raw scans, but can't afford to send you 15-20TB worth of hard-drives.

What resizing algorithm do you plan to use to scale-down the images?

What you're doing is amazing -- thanks!
