The height of the exposed image should correspond to the aspect ratio of 16:9 (see Table 1); 2 that the film should, if possible, be projected with a projector aperture of 16:9 aspect ratio (see Table 1); 3 that

5、, where possible, when composing 16:9 images on video that may be transferred to film, it should take into account the loss of image area that will occur during the printing and projection processes (see Annex 1); 4 that, when transferring video images that were not originally intended for projectio

9、ensions.2 Rec. ITU-R BR.1440 ANNEX 1 Transfer of 16:9 television programmes to 35 mm film for optical projection: image dimensions 1 Background Video images may be transferred to film for optical projection. This happens in situations where it is convenient to be able to present television programme

10、s on a cinema screen. The more important situation is where the film is the end product in a mixed video and film production process. In particular, this transfer is useful when HDTV is used as an alternative method for feature film production. Different technologies are used to transfer video to fi

11、lm but common to all is the use of traditional printing of a film for projection. The TV aspect ratio of 16:9 is not yet an established standard for optical projection. It is therefore important to be aware of the consequences of merging video and film technologies for optical presentation. 2 Genera

12、l Most equipment for transferring images on video to film is based on transferring the video image from an image surface, or as a beam of light, optically onto a camera film in a camera much like an ordinary film camera. Then the camera film follows traditional film processes of printing and project

13、ion. 3 Properties of traditional film printing and projection The traditional image processes from camera to projection are specified in agreed international standards. These standards take into account the necessary flexibility and safety margins necessary for printing and projection. Therefore the

14、re is an overall image cropping from camera negative to projection of about 4.6%. A video image will therefore be reduced about 4.6% overall in this process (see Fig. 1). 1440-01Projected image height1.85:1 = 11.32 mm16:9 = 11.78 mm1.66:1 = 12.62 mmCamera aperture, 1.37:1Projected aperture width: 20

ITU-R BR.1440 3 Further cropping may occur when 16:9 video images are optically projected. Each projector is equipped with exchangeable projection aperture

16、s. These relate to the different projection standards. The most frequently used wide-screen formats are 1.85:1 and 1.66:1 as well as anamorphic 2.39:1. There is no standard at present for 16:9 projection and existing apertures may be used instead. Using the 1.85:1 aperture for 16:9 images will crop

17、an additional 4% overall of the image height (see Figs. 1 and 3). 4 Transferring 16:9 video images to 35 mm film In principle there are two circumstances in which video images may be transferred to film: Images shot on video and framed for optical projection on 35 mm film. Programmes on video not or

18、iginally intended for optical projection. 4.1 Images shot on video and framed for optical projection on 35 mm film In a video to film production method it is necessary to shoot and frame to the presentation image area. This can be done by showing the projected area in the camera viewfinder. It is th

19、erefore recommended that camera viewfinders have markings similar to those in Fig. 2. 1440-021.85:1 optical projection (less 8.3% overall)FIGURE 2Video camera viewfinder for programmes intented for projection from 35 mm film16:9 acquisition16:9 optical projection (less 4.6% overall height)FIGURE 144

20、0-02 = 9 CM 4.2 Programmes on video not intended for optical projection When images on video are transferred to film without the attention necessary during shooting and post-production, there will be changes to picture content that is projected. It could be important for the programme makers to be a

21、ware that: The image width will be cropped 4.6% overall. The projected image height will depend on the projector aperture used. At the moment, the 16:9 aspect ratio is not used in cinemas. The current projection apertures that could be used and their effects on picture content are listed in Table 2
