Excellent project idea, DJ!
I, too, prefer the film with the overture, so am glad to hear that’s being included. For those who really don’t care for it, the rest of the film is just a chapter-click away.
A few months back, there were two HD caps of TBH on the Spleen – one with (from itunes, I think) and one without (which had a higher overall video bitrate). I grabbed both, did some cutting and pasting to create a hybrid, and added a 35mm grain plate to the entire affair. As a learning experience produced for casual viewing, I was happy enough with the result, but am very excited to see what you guys put together. 😃
Yea I am leaning towards just having the “Overture” and like you said, if it bothers then just chapter past it, really no reason for seamless here when it can be skipped easily enough, 1 thing I would like to know is this, I remember when the overture played it was just on a black screen, there was no “overture” text onscreen correct?
Yea I seen those files on Spleen and we didn’t care for any, the iTunes version I believe was the worst of all.
