Was Brookside filmized in its latter years? It did seem to have an awkward, cinematic atmosphere that seemed really out of step with its earlier cosy soap feel. jamesgibbon 30 June 2005 23:55 (UTC)

Merge with Field-removed video?

Final sentence meaningless?

HDTV offers the ability to natively transmit progressive scan video to the home, meaning many filmizing techniques will become obsolete.

I don't see that transmission has anything to do with the filmizing process. If you shoot on SD interlaced video, it will still need to be filmized before (or possibly after) being scaled up to HD.

And if you shoot 1080i with a full frame rate, you'd still need to filmize for transmission at (effectively) 1080p (the lines are still encoded and transmitted interlaced but they come together to make a single frame). Of course it'd probably be much easier to shoot on 720p, but then the sentence should say that HD offers the ability to natively [i]shoot[/i] progressive scan video, which some SD cameras already do.

Or have I got something mixed up? David 19:05, 29 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Home & Away is shot in HD

While it's possible that Home & Away is shot in 1080i50 and filmized to 1080p25, it's also possible that it is shot in 1080p25.

Either one would produce a similar result in 576p50 (seen in Australia) and 576i50 (seen in Australia and UK). Whophd 20:13, 25 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

The term "Filmizing".

I have never heard this term used in the industry. Can we get some sources? I have heard "get the film look" or more profressionally, "cinematic", but never "I want it filmized". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.149.55.37 (talk) 04:32, 12 January 2007 (UTC).Reply

Perhaps the expression is less common in the USA, but it is certainly used (at least informally) in professional circles in the UK. 80.93.170.99 17:11, 5 March 2007 (UTC)Reply
